Carpet is a material with an ancient history – its birth dates back to the 17th century – and a very recent comeback. The textile covering, which experienced its golden years in the Seventies and Eighties, is characterised by the combination of versatility and performance, colour customisation and tactile sensations. Its rediscovery in recent years is also due to renewed production technologies, which enhance its main characteristics and add other important factors: hygiene and sustainability. Among the protagonists that have made the contemporary evolution of carpeting possible is Besana Carpet Lab, a company that in recent years has conducted a series of studies and innovations to transform carpeting into a high-performance covering in every respect. Its fine fibres ensure that the finished and laid product is easy to maintain: dirt residues are easily sucked up and washed away because, by its nature, it is able to attract the accumulation of dust thus avoiding its dispersion in the air, unlike other types of flooring.
A manual for designing with carpets
Besana Carpet Lab has realised a manual to show all the possibilities of designing a room with carpet.
Besana Carpet Lab enhances the transversal character of the carpet, which is able to quickly change the soul of any environment, giving it character and uniqueness. In order to spread this kind of quality, the company presented its Design Manual, a tool that shows the many possibilities to furnish rooms using carpet in a traditional or experimental way. The guide – which can be obtained free of charge from Besana's website – shows the various design possibilities offered by the textile covering: single-colour rooms, elaborate inlays, multiform and multi-thickness carpets... The Handbook is a practical extension of Besana's contemporary vision, according to which carpet is a unique material capable of adapting to the creative and functional needs of any environment.
