      Why the gaudy carpets in casinos?
      Have you ever wondered why the floors in most casinos look like some type of bad joke? Why the beautiful multi-billion dollar resorts would put such awful second-rate flooring in their building? As with most everything in Las Vegas there is a reason. The first and most obvious reason for the busy designs is traffic. Las Vegas sees more than 35 million people a year, incidentally about the population of Canada, that is a lot of people walking and spilling all over the floors. The busier the design the less likely a flaw will stand out. The other reason, and probably the more important reason for the Casino, is the psychological effect busy designs have on the human brain. Busy designs are hard on the human eye, causing the viewer to look away. It is the same reason why so many of the casinos have high ceilings; it causes the viewer to look away from the dizzying heights. So if you aren’t looking down and you aren’t looking up, where are you looking? Straight ahead where th

      Custom Rugs and Carpets: 8 Tips before you buy
      Buying a custom ordered product always has a small amount of risk involved. After all, most custom products require the buyer to take a leap of faith because they are going to buy something sight unseen. This does apply to custom rug making as well. You can minimize the risks by educating yourself and prepare yourself with proper planning. Here are 8 important tips before you commit to buying: Tip #1: Research the available custom rug fabricators in your local area or go online. Look for quality and professionalism. Do they have experience? Do they have designs to choose from? Do they have a portfolio that you can look at? Tip #2: Identify a budget for your rug project. If your budget is tight, then maybe ordering a custom rug isn’t realistic at this time.
