A stunning combination of patterns, colours and textures. Here, the feeling of softness and comfort coming from the cushioned furniture is enhanced by long-pile carpet. Despite the fact that long-pile carpets are more commonly used as smaller rugs, the relevant interior demonstrates how powerful the effect of coziness could be if the floor is fully covered with shag carpet. In addition the long pile is great for noise reduction thus a perfect match for a bedroom.

Grey, uninviting, cold was the first impression that concrete provokes, but not anymore. With its simplicity, concrete turns out to be a vast field for exploring new techniques, thus new and exiting finishes would be possible. May be in a few years no one would remember the basic look of concrete a part of specialists. An example for a concrete performance is these genius floral design imprints providing a wonderful counterpoint to the cold surface on which they are impressed. Of course, with the technique all kinds of possibilities are opened up – geometric patterns, realistic floors capes and other approaches are all possible. Also, these can be functional and provide different textures and grips underfoot on what would otherwise be a smooth and sterile concrete floor surface. This is also just one of the features of the modernist Transparent House shown in the images above.
