This is a great year to buy a new carpet because of all the exciting patterns available. There are business-like plaids, fun repeating shapes, geometric patterns and charming colors. But you know what makes these designs even more attractive? Borders. A wide frame in a complementary color or pattern can kick any carpet's fashion quotient up a notch, and here is why:

Eye-Catching Contrast

   Anyone who has had a painting framed knows that the surrounding material can enhance the picture in the frame. The frame can emphasize the colors of the picture, give it a sturdier appearance, and add to it's beauty. The contrasting pattern of a carpet border has a similar effect with carpets. People naturally notice contrast as it helps the complementary colors of your carpet pop. If your goal is to make a statement or be a little different in your interior decor, then carpets with borders is certainly a consideration.

Other reasons to add a border to your rug or wall to wall carpeting decor

It adds the appearance, quality and texture. Contrasting patterns and colors draw the eye to the weave of the carpet and the sharp change in pattern gives the impression that the weave is different on the border. If you want to play it safe in your decor, using paint and furniture in neutral colors, adding a splash of color and pattern in your rug, throw pillows and curtains is a way of committing for now – and it's always changeable at a later date if your tastes tend to change.

   Corporate clients are a discerning bunch when it comes to decorating an office space. This is especially true when carpeting an office, since it's a place you spend 40+ hours per week.  It's important to choose a subtle, professional-looking carpet in line with the style of the office. Picking the right office carpet takes considering a few things while shopping.

   Carpet comes in many materials each with advantages that make it suitable for certain applications. Considering traffic areas and activity will happen in an office will help you choose a material. For instance:

1. Wool repels stains and has an appealingly natural texture to it. This makes it great for offices where artists work or people often eat food at their desks. It also has the advantage of being eco-friendly for businesses who want to stress that part of their brand.

2. Nylon is rugged and keeps its shape well. It's easy to clean and resists moisture mightily. This makes it great for rooms that get a lot of wear, might get wet, and is often trampled by the public. 

3. Velvet is soft and looks matted. It tends to show dents, but it is great for any office where people spend a lot of time on the carpet.

Coordinate Colors With The Mood 

   Every office has a different feel to it. Some look industrial chic with open plans and steel furnishings and might call for gray or black carpet. Others are going for a more conservative look, with neutral, beige or earthy tones and textures or for a more minimalist look. Each look says a lot about how a company sees itself and what image they want to convey.  A carpet that matches the preferred look will go a long way to completing the company's brand image. You will want to consider the entire color scheme and style of furnishings before deciding on an office carpet pattern.
