Habitable spaces are more than just walls and ceilings. Doors, windows, carpets, other accessories and interior design elements add a sense of elegance to the space. Installing fancy curtains over windows or laying a luxurious rug on the floor will enhance the quality of the space’s ambience. Imbibing a sense of class, we use the rugs for multiple other functions like soundproofing the hard floor, or even for directing an individual.
Until the 19th century, we used the word carpet for any cover, such as a table cover or wall hanging. The bifurcation of carpets, curtains, and rugs happened much later after the introduction of machines. Rugs provide a sense of warmth. As time passed, they have become an essential element in any habitable space.

Hands Carpets
