Interior Designer, Carpet Court Ambassador and ‘The Block’ Judge, Darren Palmer, has these tips to help choose the right flooring for your home. Who will be using the space? I live in a home with two dogs, a cat and a three year old son, so these inhabitants come with a certain set of rules. Whether you have pets, young children, teenagers or if you’re a woman who favours stilettos, you will have a different set of requirements. Consider all of the people, furry family members included, who will live in the space and think about what flooring will best accommodate them. Do you want something cool under foot like tiles or concrete, or carpet to keep your feet warm in winter? Wood flooring is a happy medium and can be made warmer with rugs. What level of durability does the space require? Dark wooden floors aren’t a great match for pet hair and claws, nor are soft wooden floors ideal for high heels. As a general rule, if you have young children look for softer floor finishes, the hardest being wood. If you are concerned about spills ruining your carpet, look for a product that has some variation so you can mask minor staining. With school-aged children or teenagers, consider surfaces that wipe clean, such as tiles or wood floors. With adults-only inhabitants – you have free reign. What mood do you want to create? How do you want the space to look and feel? The problem most people face is sorting through the endless options, so tools like Carpet Court’s revolutionary 3D Design Studio are invaluable. You can create virtual rooms in 3D to see how Carpet Court’s extensive product range will look in your home. Upload pictures of your own rooms or choose from a selection of room designs, and select a range of flooring options including carpet, bamboo, vinyl, laminate, timber and rugs to see which best suits your space. The tool allows you to insert additional furnishings and change the colour of walls and fittings so you can virtually ‘try before you buy’. Visit www.carpetcourt.com.au for more information. What’s your budget? With so many choices you’re really only limited by your creativity and finances. The good news is that you can find an appropriate solution at every price point, from value to prestige. Each product has its pros and cons, so consider how you’ll use the space and whether the product you want will live up to your lifestyle. It will take planning, consideration and imagination, but updating your flooring is one of the best ways to bring your home to life.

Solution Dyed Ny lon 15 Y ear Warranty Trumpet Vin e Morning Bridge Virginia Cream your space 2 Apartment living comes with modern looks and great convenience, but brings with it space and storage challenges. Here are some suggestions from interior designer and Carpet Court ambassador Darren Palmer on how to optimise your smaller living spaces and get the look for less. all colours work in symphony with each other to create the style and mood you’re after. A lighter colour palette will offer more space during the day but if you spend more time in the apartment at night, or if the space is inherently dark, darker tones will help blur the boundaries where one wall meets the next, creating the illusion of space. Splendour Planning: When choosing furniture for a small space it’s important to get the right fit. If the piece is too small the space will seem smaller, while if it’s too big it might look out of proportion. With built in furniture, lift things off the floor wherever possible. The bathroom vanities and TV entertainment unit being attached to the wall allows you to see more of the floor, giving the illusion of space.

Aria Custom-made Roller Blind There is never one answer to design challenges but Carpet Court can ease the burden of renovator’s remorse and help you get the look you love from the floor up. Tile choice is one of the internal finishes with the most solutions and variations so here are some tips to help you choose the right one for you. “I believe the home is the ultimate in self-expression. You want your personal style to shine through and updating your blinds is a quick and easy way to redecorate any room,” she said. As with all interior design decisions the first place to start is to set your parameters and understand your constraints. Tiles for living spaces will have different requirements to those of a bathroom, outdoor space or pool. Interior designer and Carpet Court ambassador Darren Palmer recommends checking with your tile suppliers that the tile you’re specifying is right for the area you’re thinking of using it. “You’ll also need to look at things like gloss level and slip rating from space to space. Some tiles may work better on walls than floors or some may suit one space better than another, so make sure you double check with suppliers and installers to be sure you have made an appropriate choice,” he said. Why 2 tiles? 3 4 Blinds can be made from a whole host of different materials, so it’s important to pick the right ones for you. From economical to luxury, Carpet Court offers plenty of options that will get you the perfect designer fit and look. 1 In terms of style there are many different directions to take your tile choices. You can browse by room, trend or colour with Carpet Court to find the look you love. Whether you’re after a contemporary style or a feature, Australian TV personality and Carpet Court ambassador Shelley Craft said it’s important to consider what will suit your space. “...Look at things like glo ss level & slip rating.” “If you’re working with a small space, large tiles will look overpowering and out of proportion. The size, pattern, colour, texture and gloss level of a tile can change the feeling of a room so be sure you know what you’re after,” she said. Remember when you’re choosing the size and shape of your tiles that there is a knock on effect in terms of installation costs. The fussier the shape or size, the more labour and higher costs. Darren said the standard 600x300 or 300x300 tile will be about as basic as you can get in terms of ease of installation, while small mosaics sheets, whilst fairly common, take a little more care and craftsmanship, so may cost you more to lay. “Basically the more attention to detail your tiles require to lay the better and generally more expensive the trades person needs to be. Also be sure when you’re buying your tiles that you are working to quantities handed down to you by your builder or tiler. You don’t want to over or under order,” he said.

Striking the right balance between style and practicality can seem a daunting task, but with these top tips from Carpet Court the job is made effortless. Carpet Court can help you choose the right window coverings to give your home privacy, insulation, light control, security and style. Before you buy, consider what material will best suit your lifestyle. Do you have young kids with sticky fingers running about? Or are you trying to get some privacy from those nosy neighbours? Whether you’re after venetians, vertical blinds, shutters or roller blinds, Carpet Court is offering you the chance to find the perfect fit. product spotlight Pictured: 1. Dreamstone 2. Traveaine (White) 3. Celina Series 4. Gloss Tile (Grey) Whether you’re after complete privacy or very little, we have the blinds to suit. Interior designer and Carpet Court ambassador Darren Palmer said privacy and controlling the level of light are two of the most important practical considerations when it comes to choosing window treatments. “When it comes to bedrooms you should always consider not just daytime privacy but night time privacy and daytime light tightness, which will only come in the form of a blockout window covering. Pairing up a translucent or semi opaque blind with a block out blind will allow you all levels of light and privacy control you need allowing you also to roll both up concealing the blinds whilst allowing full light to stream into the room, he said.” Carpet Court believes window coverings should be both decorative and functional. You don’t want them sticking out like a sore thumb, so choose a blind that suits your style and theme. Our Aria readymade blinds are the easiest and fastest way to update a room. Available in a range of classic colours, Carpet Court can deliver your new blinds straight to your door. “Whether you’re after a cosy or modern look, you’ll be surprised what difference a great window covering can make to your room,” Shelley said. 6 7 The Carpet Court Blind Collections are available from selected Carpet Court stores nationwide.

Organise your space and provide anything that doesn’t deserve to be out on show with its own hiding space – neatly organised, contained and tucked away out of view. A few good ideas are to box up individual pairs of shoes into their own plastic tub with a drawer on the front. It’s also time to tuck the big winter jackets and heavy clothing away on your top shelves and create some space for your summer wardrobe. Add a natural touch Spring is the time for blooms to do their thing so gather up large bunches of the same flower and display them proudly on your coffee or dining table. Several bunches through the house will lighten your mood and bring that glorious spring feeling in from the outdoors.

Choose your colour The flooring you choose for your home will set the foundation for your entire décor and, importantly, determine the look and feel of your home. To help you make your choice a little easier, follow these top tips interior designers use when considering the style of flooring that’s right for you. 2. Define your design. Are you drawn to patterns, stripes, squares, circles or sleek lines? Horizontal lines suggest calmness and stability. Vertical lines soar and symbolise formality and aspiration. 3. Set the tone. How light or dark do you want the area to feel? 4. Get in touch with texture. All surfaces are essentially variations of rough or smooth. Smooth surfaces are laminates, polished timber, tiles and painted surfaces. Rough surfaces are brick, stone, marble and carpet. The many colours of colour Because colour has a big influence on how we feel, it helps to have a little understanding of how colour works. One of the most important things to know is the difference between warm and cool colours. In simple terms, warm colours are perceived as lively, while cool colours are more calming and relaxing. Warm colours are typically reds, orange and yellows and cool colours are blues, greens and purples. cool warm What’s trending? Different colour schemes have different effects in a home. monochromatic contrasting Relaxed interiors more your style? Choose monochromatic colour schemes. Want cutting edge style? Choose contrasting colour schemes. Watch your tone Tone is the lightness and darkness of any colour and varies from the brightest whites to the deepest blacks. Tone tips: Using a dark tone on a floor will create the illusion of a smaller surface area, while a light toned floor will expand the feeling of space. Using a dark tone on the floor and the ceiling will create the illusion of lowering the ceiling and expanding the width of the room. 90 harmonious Want to add intensity to your colour scheme? Choose harmonious colours. And for a timeless look that never goes out of style, choose neutral colours with a leaning towards either a warm or cool hue. Harmonious tones create a relaxing, peaceful vibe.. While trends may come and go, traditional and contemporary styles are always in vogue. The secret to keeping these two key looks on trend is to accessorise with the latest ‘in’ colours, soft furnishings and fabrics. So what’s your style? Traditional can be broadly defined as comfortable, classic interiors. While it may take its inspiration from the past, this style can be mixed with other interior styles to create a unique look. Some traditional looks such as Formal Regency and Federation may have more formal and lavish touches such as highly polished walnut and oak flooring dressed with Oriental rugs, or antique baroque chairs and side tables. while contrasting tones make a room more lively and energetic. Contemporary style is described as casual and clean, with open spaces and neutral colours at its core. Unlike ultra modern design, contemporary interiors are soft and comfortable, with rustic touches such as natural timber, wrought iron and white washed furniture. 91 3D Design Studio e! possible?
