Interior Design Facts for Flooring

-
Just as when we step into a mosque and its high open dome leads our minds up , up , to greater things , so a great carpet seeks to do the same under the feet. A rug is more than just an ornamental item of decor; rather, it is an accent that has great utility value. Whether to add warmth to a marble floor or to style to hardwood one, carpets come with a host of advantages for your living space.

Insulation

Did you know that carpet also adds extra insulation to your room? If you want more insulation, you will need an extra thick under-padding and a denser carpet texture. This is quite common in areas that it gets extremely cold.

Reduces Noise

Big screen TVs, speaker phones, computers and modern sound systems make our homes noisy places. Carpet helps absorb these sounds. Adding a cushion pad beneath your carpet reduces noise even further. Carpet also works as a sound barrier between floors by helping to block sound transmission to rooms below. And carpet on stairs helps mask the sound of constant foot traffic.

Provides Warmth and Comfort

Carpet flooring provides the feel of warmth underfoot. Walking into a carpeted room gives you a comfortable, cozy and a welcomed feel. Carpet provides actual thermal resistance and comfortable environment to work on. In colder seasons or climates, it retains warm air longer, as you can see it as “Energy Conservation” benefit.

Household Safety

When having children you are always concerned about them falling. Well, carpet tends to make your home safer. If you have children or even elderly adults it will help save them from serious injuries. Not to mention, it won’t hurt as much as if you fell on hardwood.

Improves Indoor Air Quality

Carpet (wool fiber) tends to improve indoor air quality as wool traps other dust particles in the floor, provided your carpet is regularly cleaned and well maintained. The accumulated dust on your carpet will be removed once you vacuum.
