When we talk about carpets we are referring to the furnishing accessory par excellence. Whether it is models with a modern style or more traditional solutions (such as Persian rugs or the most famous kilims) rugs play a central role if you want to give completeness to a space. And if even today the value of a carpet is established on the basis of the material with which it is made and the manufacturing process, today when we talk about this important piece of furniture we cannot ignore the style. But what are the 4 trends concerning the new carpets
Let’s find out together. 1.A full color
Made with precious natural fibers, such as silk or wool, or with cheaper and more common components, such as cotton and jute, the rugs that most mark the trends of recent years are those designed and built in the name of color. From traditional models to the most interesting contemporary solutions, it is precisely the balanced, and in some cases pictorial, scanning of the colors that make some models unique and particular. And if neutral solutions are always appreciated, combinations of more models with real patchwork of carpets, also positioned one on top of the other, in which at the base we find a model in light tones and above, just superimposed, a smaller carpet, but with lively and bright tones. Red, green and a lot of blue, in its thousand shades,2.Graphic solutions win over everything
If abstract and floral prints of all kinds are always popular, in the universe of the contemporary carpet it is certainly the graphic patterns that reign supreme. Repeated and cadenced patterns with precise geometries that alternate shades and materials, often giving particular optical games with an interesting scenographic effect. Carpets made with modern synthetic fibers or with more traditional natural components that reflect the geometric patterns of the 50s and 70s or the beautiful graphic designs of the Bauhaus (the famous German school of architecture, art and design born in 1919 and which had life until 1933, the heart of the avant-garde of the Modern Movement) and offer symphonies of vivid and daring colors capable of truly changing the face of a space in a few minutes.
- Carpets also for the outdoors
Absolute trend of 2019, and they plan to be also for 2020, outdoor rugs are the element that was missing. Perfect for furnishing, renovating or revolutionizing outdoor areas of all kinds (yes, even a simple balcony!), They give warmth and continuity and restore the right awareness to these spaces. Made with synthetic fibers and technical fabrics (the most durable and performing solutions), but also with traditional materials, such as the most fascinating bamboo, jute and cotton, suitably treated and suitable for outdoor use, outdoor rugs play a key role in stylistic definition of the external areas and open to well-characterized, elegant and truly surprising furnishing solutions.
- The limited edition models as an investment
They are precious in the materials, often designed by important names in the contemporary design scene and particularly refined in the workmanship, we are talking about limited edition rugs. Important models with a great scenographic effect that in the balance between materials and colors tell an emotion, emotion that makes them not simple furnishing accessories, but real “floor” works of art. These are really precious rugs, which can also have very high market prices, but which must be seen and considered as investments. Highly refined and unique collectibles, often made on commission and / or with a limited edition, which over the years will acquire more and more value and will always give a renewed aesthetic quality to the
Whether it is precious silk patterns carded and hand-knotted or simpler and “affordable” solutions, don’t be afraid to put a carpet in your home. Suitable for any environment, from the bathroom to the balcony, they not only furnish, but define the space, they can cover defects, such as an ugly floor, and give great personality to a space, as well as a sense of aesthetic quality which is also difficult to obtain. .
