Room by Room Guide
The Bedroom. A soft, luxurious carpet looks great in any room. The bedroom is the one room where one can be really indulgent. You can be unashamedly decadent; opulent; bold or sophisticated; uncompromisingly modernist; classic or futurist the choice is yours! It is also in terms of wear, the room that will take the least so, frankly, you need not spend as much on a bedroom carpet as on a carpet for elsewhere in the home.

The Bathroom. It is often assumed that carpet is not suitable for a bathroom. This is not true. Ideally your choice of carpet here will be totally synthetic, including the backing, particularly in households with young children as there is the potential for the carpet to get soaked! Carpet should only be avoided if it is going to get drenched on a regular basis!

The Hall, Stairs and Landing are the areas that take the most wear and tear in a household. Here you need a Quality Mark carpet that is at least Heavy Domestic and possibly Extra Heavy Domestic and probably one with an 80% wool content. Design and colour wise, here one has great scope to really make an entrance. Do consider an attractive stair runner.

The living room, as the name suggests, is often the hub of a household and so, here again, a hard wearing, practical carpet is best. Style wise, you have free rein to select from the full range on offer. Remember that, on a like for like basis, the difference between a twist pile and a velvet pile is purely aesthetic while a light coloured carpet will make the room feel bigger.

The dining room is invariably a room in which great pride is taken and a decorating centre. Here, the natural loop pile carpets that replicate the coir and sisal look are very modern and chic. Similarly, a lovely patterned carpet is highly practical and attractive.
