Carpet that may shock you. Even without your socks on.

Carpet might make you think of that room in your grandmother’s house that nobody ever went into, but clearly the new carpet of today is broadening its horizons.

Bold new hues. While you’ll still find plenty of earth tones in contemporary carpets, today you’ll also discover decidedly bolder, brighter colors. Color blocking is on the uptick too. And many are finding that the best carpet for a living room may have multiple colors, which allows you to pull out accent colors from other elements of your décor.

Eye-catching designs. Even though lots of cool carpet is still monochromatic, the use of distinctive graphics is increasing. We’re talking classic stripes, checkerboard designs, a variety of geometrics, and patterned carpet which creates its own visual appeal through higher and lower fibers.

Thinking outside of the box. Other trends include area rugs that have more three-dimensional textures, using recycled materials such as reclaimed wool, and putting carpet in unexpected places like stairs. Now that’s stepping up your game.

COREtec: the vast popularity of luxury vinyl lives on.

Believe it or not, luxury vinyl flooring first appeared in the marketplace back in the 1970s. But back then, it was nowhere nearly the feeding frenzy that we’ve experienced over the last couple of years. And a big part of that is thanks to the sheer beauty and superior engineering of COREtec.

Luxury vinyl with style. Today’s COREtec vinyl flooring looks more realistic than ever thanks to innovations like Embossed In Register technology that creates grain patterns you can actually feel. Enhanced beveled edges and integrated grout lines also contribute to making it look like the real McCoy: authentic hardwood.

COREtec is a strong choice. These luxury vinyl plank and luxury vinyl tile floors are waterproof, kidproof, and petproof. Plus, they’re engineered to withstand real life courtesy of thick wear-layers and uber-strong cores. That explains why COREtec is backed by lifetime residential warranties.

Vinyl flooring that’s easy-peasy. To make COREtec even better, it’s quick and easy to have installed. Even ongoing maintenance is a breeze. Maybe that should be called easy-pleasey.

Rolling out one stunning area rug after another.

At Carpet Exchange, we carry literally thousands of the best area rugs around. And naturally that includes round area rugs. So it should comes as no surprise that what’s trending for 2023 in this realm is kind of all over the board.

Oriental influences. Oriental area rugs have always been a coveted commodity and the modern area rugs of today are no exception. In fact, they’re even better than ever. Because they’re easier to clean, can stand up to high traffic, and are more kid-friendly and pet-friendly to boot.

Popular choices for these hot, new contemporary rugs obviously include Oriental Weavers, along with the likes of Nourison rugs, Loloi area rugs, and others.

The shag is back. What goes around comes around and that holds true for the shag rugs that are back with a vengeance. Today’s iterations are constructed from natural materials and provide plenty of luxurious texture.

Where would you put one? Wherever you tend to go barefoot a lot. Which is why bedroom rugs are a popular landing spot.

Hand-knotted. Hand-knotted area rugs feature superior craftsmanship and materials. Which is why they all tend to be forget-me-not as well.

How to bark up the right tree in hardwood.

It goes without saying that age-old favorites like white oak flooring and red oak flooring will always have a place in homes here in the U.S. But there are also a number of new innovations that are in vogue these days.

Unusual colors. When it comes to hardwood colors these days, neutrals, smokey wood tones, bleached, and whitewashed are all crowd favorites. And that holds true for traditional solid hardwood and engineered hardwood as well.

Unique layouts. Yet another way to express your individuality is to have your hardwood laid out in an artistic way. Utilizing a herringbone pattern, for instance, is incredibly striking. Even just having your hardwood flooring installed at an angle can make a big difference.

Rustic textures. You don’t have to be born in barn or have one demolished to enjoy the look of reclaimed wood flooring. Now it’s thoughtfully manufactured that way. Handscraping and wirebrushing are just two of the tactics used to make your new natural wood flooring look like it has a storied history even though it’s brand-spanking new.

Any of the spectacular flooring choices we just mentioned could be the perfect choice for your home. So stop by any nearby Carpet Exchange and see all the options for yourself at our Holiday Sale. And put the happy into your holidays.
