How to choose a carpet for a small environment? | A guide to choosing a carpet for a small house

 With the expansion of urbanization, the need for residential houses in the city limits has increased. The issue of population density has caused apartments, especially in big cities, to become the first choice for people's residence. For this reason, the area of ​​houses has become smaller compared to the past. The smallness of the house can also affect the mood. Due to the fact that population density and economic constraints do not allow the construction of larger houses, it is possible to make a small space seem larger than it is with the correct decoration and arrangement.

One of the important components of any decoration is the carpet. In this article, we present the points that you can make the environment look bigger by following them in choosing a carpet.

Carpet color selection for small spaces

In decoration, it is usually recommended to choose a dark color from the design of the furniture or curtains in the room, and spread a carpet of the same color in the room. This rule is not very suitable for small environments. Dark carpets, in large and bright rooms, can add a double effect to the environment. But using a dark carpet for a small space can make the room look smaller than it actually is. Especially if it doesn't have good lighting.

Using neutral and bright colors, such as a cream carpet, is the best choice for a small space. These carpets make the room look more open. By choosing a light color, you can use complementary colors for furniture and curtains. Of course, if you have already selected the furniture and curtains, and all of them are light in color, you can also use a dark carpet for a small room. But make sure that the room has good lighting. Otherwise, the decoration of the room may not have a pleasant result.

Choosing the right carpet for a small environment

Choosing a carpet design for small spaces

After we talked about the color, it's time to design the carpet. Carpets with busy designs can make the environment look busy. This will make the room look smaller. Therefore, one of the best choices for small rooms is a modern carpet. These carpets usually have a quieter design and by using simple geometric shapes, they make the environment more cheerful.

But if you are a fan of classic carpet, you can use some types of this carpet for small room. Afshan carpets are one of the types of traditional carpets, which usually do not have bergamot (the big flower in the middle of the carpet) in their design. That's why they arrive more quietly. Using this type of classic carpets is a good choice for small rooms.

A carpet suitable for a small home

Choosing the size and shape of the carpet for small spaces

When choosing the size of the carpet for a small room, always make sure that the size of the carpet is smaller than the area of ​​the room. That is, after spreading the carpet, a part of the floor of the room will remain empty (if you wish, you can fill these empty parts with carpet. But it is better to leave it empty). This will make the room look bigger. Also, the best place to spread the carpet is in the middle of the room.

If you use furniture in the room, it is better to choose the size of the carpet so that the legs of the sofas are on the edge of the carpet.

Considering these things, one of the best choices for small spaces is round carpet and oval carpet. These carpets, with their variety of designs and colors, can be used in all rooms of the house. Their appearance is such that it can make the room look bigger.

Carpet for small reception

When choosing the design and color of the carpet, consider the taste of all family members. You should also pay attention to the color of your home decoration and choose the color of your carpet according to it. Very dark carpets are not suitable for small receptions, and you can make the reception area look bigger and more open by choosing a light colored carpet.

In choosing the right carpet for a small reception, do not go for carpets with patterns. Because busy carpets will also make your reception look smaller.

Another thing you should pay attention to is that you don't need to cover the whole house with carpet, spread a suitable carpet for each part of the house and leave the rest of the parts empty, covering the house with carpets and other carpets is outdated.

Other points you should pay attention to

Quiet carpets are better: In addition to the color and size of the carpet, you should also pay attention to whether the carpet is quiet or crowded. The quieter the carpet is, the larger the room will appear. With this in mind, it is better not to use Afshan Kashan carpets for carpeting mobile homes. By visiting Malek Shah's website, you can see the types of carpets that can be used in these places.

Pay attention to the ratio of the sofa and the carpet: if your house is very small, do not place your furniture such as the sofa on the carpet. Try to keep a distance of at least 20 cm between the legs of your sofa and your carpet. This distance makes your environment not seem small. But if your environment is not too small, putting some of the sofa on the carpet will not cause a problem.

Take color contrast seriously: if all the colors used in the decoration of your living room or bedroom are the same, the space will look more compact and smaller. Try to use dark and light contrast like black and white, cold and warm contrast like yellow and purple, blue and orange, green and red, simultaneous contrast and saturated contrast in your decoration.
