Written by [Eliza De Waele](https://insights.lamett.eu/en/author/eliza-de-waele) on 07-Jun-2016 16:34:00 Topics [interior trends](https://insights.lamett.eu/en/topic/interior-trends) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Floors are an important element of the house. You walk, sit, stand or lay on them and they are just crucial when it comes to creating a vibe in your house. Whatever you choose, if it’s epoxy floor, wood or vinyl: it will influence the rest of your interior. It’s not the case you replace your floor every year, so that’s where rugs offer a solution! You can easily decorate your room every season. In winter an animal skin or high pile rug. In summer rather a lightweight woven fabric in a pastel shade. I must say I have a winter and summer rug at home myself! ![tapijt1.jpeg](https://blog.lamett.eu/hubfs/blog-images/tapijt1.jpeg) Nowadays you will not only spot rugs in the living room. You’ll find them in the kitchen, and even outside, rugs are hot! Mostly you can put kitchen rugs in the washing machine, and they are resistant to stains. Mette Ditmer for example, a Danish brand, has very nice items! And also on the terrace, an outside rug creates a warm vibe. Awesome in that lounge corner, during those wonderful summer nights. You can find such rugs everywhere now, even at IKEA! ![tapijt2.jpeg](https://blog.lamett.eu/hubfs/blog-images/tapijt2.jpeg) Besides new places where we spot rugs, we also note that round rugs and Persian or oriental carpets are gaining in popularity.   Golden rule is that you need to take into account the other colours and textures or materials in the room. Furthermore, the right size is important. A rug that is too small or too big is really a no-go. In the sitting area for instance, each piece of furniture must touch the rug, even if it’s with one leg only. In this way, the rug  will connect the separate pieces of furniture into a cosy corner. ![tapijt3.jpeg](https://blog.lamett.eu/hubfs/blog-images/tapijt3.jpeg) *Images: Pinterest* [![New Call-to-action](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3297609/55ac8adb-8629-49fd-9acc-7b352d03b685.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3297609/55ac8adb-8629-49fd-9acc-7b352d03b685) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) NEXT ARTICLE [The Scandinavian and country lifestyle, differences and similarities listed down](https://insights.lamett.eu/en/the-scandinavian-and-country-lifestyle) [![Eliza De Waele](https://insights.lamett.eu/hs-fs/hubfs/blog-author/eliza-dewaele-200.png?width=10&name=eliza-dewaele-200.png)](https://insights.lamett.eu/en/author/eliza-de-waele) [Eliza De Waele](https://insights.lamett.eu/en/author/eliza-de-waele) A home is so much more than just a pile of bricks and some insulation. Our home is our start and end point. The place where we settle, where we feel, smell and experience. The place where we meet, relax and dream. So it is also logical that turning the pile of bricks into a cosy home is a real hobby or passion for many. Creating a cocoon, a warm nest for yourself and all the people around you sometimes takes some effort, but you also get so much back. We grow up, laugh and talk there. The structure and design of your home are important factors in how we experience the times. Time and time again I find it an amazing task to create the perfect interior for customers based on their needs and stories.
