The kitchen is often considered the heart of a home and it goes without saying that it is susceptible to its fair share of spills and traffic. When choosing a carpet it is a good idea to consider one that is tolerant to wear and the occasional accident. Pick something that is not too plain...otherwise every little stain might show. Break away from those hard edges and add some accessories with soft shapes and just as in cooking, don't be afraid to use unconventional combinations to spice it up!
