Who doesn't love stepping onto a soft, warm carpet? It's like giving your feet a little hug every time you walk into a room. Carpets aren't just cozy; they're pretty workhorses, adding a touch of sound dampening and a whole lot of style to any space. They bring in those subtle design touches, splashes of color, and that unique vibe that makes your space truly yours.
So, you’ve decided carpets are the way to go for your flooring? Awesome choice! Now, let’s talk about diving into the world of carpet shopping—it’s not without its challenges. From the sea of styles and fibers that have evolved over the years, there’s a lot to consider beyond just what meets the eye. You've got your personal style, your budget, and the overall look of your home to think about.
When choosing the perfect carpet, keep these big players in mind:
- The foot traffic in the area you’re carpeting.
- Whether pets call your house their home, too.
- If you’ve got heated floors.

Porseleinen Hof is situated in the westernmost extension of the Spoorzone area - also known as Nieuw Delft - and is considered one of the cornerstones of the development area. This cornerstone is formed by a height accent—the PorseleinenToren—and a cluster of ground-access houses, collectively forming Porseleinen Hof.
Many modern city apartments feature small bathrooms due to limited and expensive space. Despite this, designers have employed various techniques to create the illusion of larger, more luxurious bathrooms. To make a small bathroom seem more spacious, one can utilize tactics such as strategic lighting with recessed lights, as well as the use of mirrors and reflective surfaces.
This article addresses the minimum clearance areas required around bathroom fixtures to ensure their safe and comfortable use.
The bathroom is a place where ergonomics are crucial, especially considering its often small size and the need to fit all necessary fixtures, such as the toilet, sink, and bath or shower, in a functional and ergonomic way. Given the potential for accidents due to damp floors, hard surfaces, and limited space, it is important to leave enough free space in front of and around each fixture in a bathroom floor plan. This allows people to move freely around the fixtures and use them safely and comfortably.
The urban temperature has been experiencing a significant upward trend, and projections indicate that this trajectory is likely to persist. This phenomenon poses a considerable challenge for numerous urban centres, particularly those already characterised by elevated temperatures. One potential mitigation strategy that has garnered attention is the implementation of "green roofs". This concept originated from the urban heat island theory, which postulates that residential structures with tar-coated roofs may experience temperature increases of up to 5°C or more during the summer months.
Rugs are a type of soft flooring that offer a sense of comfort, warmth, and homeliness. They can be broadly categorized into two groups: mass-produced rugs and handmade rugs.
Although not always the case, mass-produced rugs are generally more affordable and often feature modern and trendy designs. On the other hand, handmade rugs require a significant amount of manual labor to produce and typically come with a higher price tag. Because handmade rugs are frequently crafted in traditional societies like Morocco, Pakistan, and Turkey, they often feature oriental designs. It is worth noting that retailers of handmade rugs typically offer a guarantee regarding the authenticity and construction of their products.
