Domotex Carpet Trends 2012 – Fashionable and Eyecatching

Another “thing to do” this year for carpeting is to go bright, colourful and eyecatching – focusing on “individual, unique, style statements.” (Domotex Trends)  Bold colour and pattern have been a strong influence in helping us choose many of the styles we carry at W Studio. Pictured above is carpet #26052, featuring an abstract pattern and warm, bright colour scheme.

Shag Rug – how to make it work in your space

Getting the right shag carpet is the key to making it work with your space and existing decor. Colour, pattern and size are the main things to consider when looking for the right match. A patterned shag rug can work well considering the furniture pattern is minimal and colours compliment each other. Mixing patterns can be very tricky, but if done well, can be very effective in the overall presentation. Shag #24070 photographed at the Telio showroom.
