Best Pile Heights for Bedrooms

When you’re thinking of which carpet type may be best for your bedroom, you may automatically consider the softest, plushest carpet available. While this type of carpet can be great, it is not always ideal for every home. For example, if you have pets or children that sleep in that bedroom, it could wear faster. Low pile carpets are made from short, dense fibers that offer a flat look that gives a neutral foundation. This makes them the ideal carpet choice for households with pets or children. High pile carpets tend to give a more luxurious look and are less likely to flatten over time. They add a chic and high-end flair to any room.
Bringing Out Colors and Patterns

Choosing your carpet’s color or pattern is often the most difficult part of selecting the perfect carpet flooring. When considering what color carpet to purchase or whether to opt for a patterned carpet, first consider your design goals and style. Ask yourself questions like: Does this carpet match my current furniture? Do I want a bold and dramatic style with colors and patterning or should I go for a casual look with a neutral color? Will it clash with my wall colors? Before deciding on a color or pattern, order some samples and test them out in your bedroom. Colored and patterned carpets bring bright and bold textures alive in your room and can make your design pop.

Area rugs are a wonderful solution that to add style and coziness. Like their carpet counterparts, they also excel at insulating a space from any unwanted noise. The most common way to incorporate an area rug into a bedroom is by placing it under the foot of a bed, leaving lots of the area rug’s space open in front of the bed. However, another great way to utilize an area rug in a bedroom is by layering it under the bed. By choosing to layer your area rug with another, you can spice things up with several rug styles to mix and match shapes, sizes, colors, and textures. Blending styles is a fun way to show off bold patterns, while ensuring that everything still complements each other.
