For some time now a trend of printed carpets in primarily black and white has appeared.
Why?
Cheaper to produce?
Faster to produce?
They are printed on pretty simple and thin weaves. Very thin. Wool or cotton.
Personally I think they are ugly. Carpets should be woven. Not printed. These patterns in the examples above and below could be really nice on a woven carpet. But printed? No thanks.
What happens if you need to clean the carpet? Does the pattern disappear then? Or do you just throw the carpet out and buy a new one?
Hoping this trend will disappear fast.
