Protagonists or not, carpets are known for making environments more welcoming or full of personality, depending on the decoration project.
In the last stretch of the year many people are looking for creative ways to renovate their residential environments, and carpet can be a real ally for the desired transformation.
However, when changing or even making your first choice, you need to stay consistent with the overall decoration project, as well as observe some important details to find the ideal piece.
Pay attention to the size
Before making any changes, do not forget the appropriate size for your carpet.
The carpet can delimit the environment, defining the spaces and also the circulation, always maintaining the proportion with the total space.
Experts recommend particular attention when measuring the space to be filled per piece, since one must not forget the minimum reserve of 30 cm under the furniture that makes up the room, this number can double in the case of a dining room, for example, since in these cases the recommendation is that the carpet also covers the space of the chair in use, with free space.
In corridors without furniture the advice is to respect a minimum limit of 20 cm in all directions, avoiding covering the floor.
In bedrooms, the advice is to favor one-piece models that cover the bed and start from the bedside table.
Characteristics
Generally, the choice of the carpet is one of the last phases of the decoration, immediately before the accessories and ornamental objects, favoring the connection between all the elements.
However, if the intention is to change the part, it is also necessary to maintain consistency with the overall design.
Respecting the appropriate color, print pattern and texture becomes essential for the environment to be harmonious. Neutral rooms can benefit from a rug with personality, while bolder rooms can take advantage of the neutrality of less vibrant tones, providing balance.
It is also possible to use two types of prints in the same environment, although the trend is to use the same piece for the living room and dining room.
A tip for the appropriate color is to relate it to the size of the space to be decorated. It is known that darker tones tend to detract from the environment, while light tones give the impression of larger and more spacious rooms.
Finally, experts recommend maintaining harmony between the carpet and sofa cushions in living rooms by exploring similar prints and textures.
Conclusion
The harmony of an environment depends largely on the balance between colors, patterns, and textures. Each element contributes to the overall atmosphere of the space, influencing how it feels and how it is perceived. While neutral rooms gain life and character with a rug that stands out, vibrant or richly decorated spaces benefit from softer tones that bring visual balance.
Experimenting with different prints can also be an elegant choice, as long as there is coherence between them. The key is moderation and visual continuity — using design elements that communicate with one another.
Finally, the color palette must always consider the proportions of the room. Light tones expand and brighten, creating a sense of openness, while dark shades provide intimacy and sophistication. When well balanced, these factors transform any space into a harmonious and inviting environment.
