Even in a room such as the hall, a carpet can be a nice addition. Rugs are not only beautiful to look at, they are also functional.

What are flat weave carpets?

Before we tell you why you should decorate your home with flat weave rugs, it is of course important that you know exactly what flat weave rugs are. A flat woven rug is a rug that is made without knots. This makes the surface of the rug appear flat and even. A beautiful effect can be achieved by using special threads. Flat weaving is a popular technique for producing a variety of trendy carpet styles. Flat-woven carpets were originally used in nomadic and Scandinavian culture. Since nomads were on the road a lot, they needed rugs that were light enough to take with them. Flat-woven carpets were very suitable for this. One of the best-known types of flat woven rugs is the Kelim. This is a very colorful rug with distinctive grooves. But flat-weave rugs come in many shapes and sizes. These types of rugs have both aesthetic and functional advantages, making them very suitable for decoration.

If you have carefully selected a carpet, you naturally want to enjoy it for a longer period of time. Fortunately, flat-woven carpets are very strong and therefore remain beautiful for a long time.

Don't worry about ‘fluffs’

Many beautiful rugs have a woven wool surface, which can remove a lot of fluff during use. In order to keep your room clean, if you have such a rug, you will often have to vacuum extra. The fluff can also be extra annoying for people with allergies. Allergens and dust linger longer in the fluff released by the rug. You don't have all these problems with a flat woven carpet. A flat woven rug does not fluff and is easy to vacuum. Allergens will also linger much less in the rug and these rugs are always treated against most allergies. This makes it a perfect choice for everyone.

They are easy to move and use around the house

Although a rug can give a room a lot of extra atmosphere, it can at the same time limit the possibilities of the room. It is not so easy to move a large, heavy rug and any changes you want to make to your room will always have to be adapted to the rug that is already there. A flat woven rug, on the other hand, has a light structure, which makes it easier to move or even remove
