Which Carpet is Best for Pets?

Everyone knows carpet feels great underfoot—whether you have two feet or four!—Shaw has developed some carpet benefits you’ll love, and so will your furrier family members. They add up to a healthy, sweet-smelling home for you and your pet.

Bathroom Flooring Upgrades

According to the 2020 U.S. Houzz & Home study, bathrooms were the 2nd most popular rooms for renovations among homeowners. As you’re spending more and more time at home these days, you may be considering a bathroom update as well. Whether your guest bathroom, master bathroom or both could use some refreshing, our durable and waterproof luxury vinyl offers plenty of versatility!

Korlok Select

The award-winning Korlok Select range features a wide variety of wood and stone visuals sourced from across North America and Europe. Whether you're seeking the charm of our Antique French Oak, taken from a 17th-century French chateau, or the stunning look of rare Italian Calacatta marble in Palazzo Marble.

Pet Friendly K Guard +

In addition to working as a barrier against scuff marks, stains and fine scratches from our excitable furry friends, Karndean’s surface protection system, K Guard + puts commercial-grade durability into any family home without sacrificing on appearance.

Korlok Select vs Ceramic and Porcelain Tile

We recently introduced 17 stone looks to our interlocking Korlok Select floating floor range. Like all Karndean Designfloors, these stones are waterproof, durable, kid and pet friendly, come with a lifetime residential warranty and feature original Karndean visuals! These visuals were developed from antique French cotta, Calacatta marble, slate, limestone and include Moorish stenciled tiles.

Using Karndean to Create a Healthy and Hygienic Home

The current pandemic has put a spotlight on the type of materials we bring into our homes. Ease of maintenance, the ability to harbor dirt and bacteria, and the overall environmental footprint are among the top concerns of homeowners in today’s climate.

Tips from the Table: Purposefully Using Pattern

One of the best features of Karndean Designflooring luxury vinyl is its versatility, meaning if you can think of a unique layout or pattern there is a way to achieve it! You may be hesitant to use a patterned floor, but your floor is simply another surface to express your personality or style – like a kitchen backsplash or statement wallpaper. In the same way that you use these accents purposefully, the same rings true with patterned flooring.

How Lighting Affects Your Flooring

Lighting plays a huge role in how your flooring and other furnishings will look in your home. Just like color or paint, lighting impacts the overall feeling and mood of the space. Improper lighting can cause glare, eye strain and even headaches.

Trend Alert: Japandi Style

If you consider yourself to be a minimalist when it comes to your home decor, a growing new trend known as Japandi will likely appeal to you. Asian interior design styles are perhaps most well-known for bringing calm and balance to a space (i.e. feng shui, zen), but another aspect of Japanese style, in particular, is wabi sabi – beauty in imperfection.

Hallmark Floors Vinyl 101

Vinyl’s toughness and durability make it the most widely used plastic for building and construction applications such as siding, windows, roofing, fencing, decking, wall coverings, wall protection and base, and floor covering.

Breathe easier with carpet

It's a common misconception that carpet can adversely impact allergy and asthma sufferers. Recently, Shaw Industries commissioned a series of scientific studies that indicate that effectively cleaned carpet can reduce airborne allergens, making it a viable choice for families impacted by allergies and asthma.

Why Carpet?

Softness, comfort, texture, color...there are countless reasons to love carpet.

Think about that moment when you first step out of bed each morning. That welcoming touch of warmth is a perfect start to your day.
