When you’re setting up your space, planning and execution can be so much fun, whether it is your first home project or a new one. A primary base for any new home or one going through a major makeover is the flooring.
Enter: Carpet Tiles
In this blog, we talk about how carpet tiles, as flooring options go, can be interesting picks for your home or office. To begin with, you might ask, What are carpet tiles?
We understand in India, it’s common for us to have bare floors at home. Carpet tiles are carpet squares cut from wall to wall rolls which are fitted together to make a carpet covering the area of your choosing.
The advantages of carpet tiles are many! How about we start with the appeal and feel? They add to the ambience of a space, enhancing the depth and warmth of an indoor environment, whilst complementing the vibe. This is done through colours and texture of the selected carpet tiles, including how you decide to lay them out too.
Additional advantages to opting for floor carpet tiles are that they offer comfort and warmth when padding around on your feet. The acoustics are also considerably gentler as carpet tiles tend to smoothen out abrupt and rough noises. While carpet tiles can uplift an office space or your study at home, they are kid-friendly and pet-friendly to an extent. Chances of your little ones slipping, falling and hurting themselves around corners are minimal.
While very apt for a space that’s on the sleek or minimalist side, some disadvantages of carpet tiles include the need for them to be replaced in the case of stubborn stains and regular wear and tear with time.
When choosing a tile carpet for offices, you can explore as you would for a personal space. You can opt for darker, vibrant coloured patterns like Course or softer bold hues like Zaria depending on your business space. Among the benefits of carpet tiles is that carpeted offices can appear cosy or sophisticated, depending on your style. Carpeted areas are a great option for studio spaces, private clinics, and libraries, to name a few.
Carpet tiles can be versatile in this manner, because laying these squares can be played with too. You can cover an area in a particular pattern or distinctive style, mix and match, and even intersperse with different carpet tiles over existing flooring. The process can be creative and eclectic as you prefer.
A wall to wall carpet covers a selected space entirely in a few pieces, as opposed to laying out several pieces. Called Broadloom Carpets, they tend to create a seamless effect because of the roll dimensions they are available in. This style is typically preferred for longer corridors and posh spaces – like the interiors of a hotel room and surrounding corridor, an airport lounge, library, a banquet hall and such and so forth.
If you take a geometrical pattern like Origami (180017) or a darker pattern like Origami (180016), you will notice the flooring blends with the surroundings, which is what you want because it shouldn’t ever feel overwhelming or too much. Our Wall to Wall Carpet styles come in colours and design styles that make the areas they cover appear even bigger.
Carpet tiles are comfier, and homier, and can keep your space cosy. Our carpet tiles are anti-viral and anti-microbial too with our HealthyFloor™ technology! This kills 99.68% of viruses and absorbs carbon dioxide, thereby reducing indoor pollution and improving air quality.
Carpet tiles add character, and regular maintenance care simply involves interim cleaning, restorative cleaning and vacuuming. Our carpet tiles have a highly resilient fibre, are fade-resistant and stain-resistant, and are easy to install. As disadvantages of carpet tiles go, in the event that a tile gets completely destroyed or soiled, they have to be replaced, when there’s frequent wear and tear, over a period of time.
Now that you know what are carpet tiles and why they not only make stylish statements but have practical uses too, you can gauge where this flooring option is most apt in a chosen space. Carpet tiles work well in luxurious ambiences, cabin-style homes, spaces with high ceilings and indoor spaces with long passages and corridors. Homes in colder regions would also benefit from carpet tiles.
