Wall-to-wall carpeting can be had in knobby wools, mohair, sisal and lush cottons. Is it time to reconsider it?
The memory of icky midcentury shag and synthetic cut pile has left many skeptical of broadloom carpet. But advances in technology are changing some mindsSOMETIME AROUND the end of the last century, our attitude toward wall-to-wall carpet grew jaundiced.
The culprit: inexpensive nylon broadloom that had given rise to tacky bicolor shags and multishaded, sculpted cut pile. These overshadowed the legitimately chic use of wall-to-wall by arbiters of style, like interior designer Madeleine Castaing, who swathed her 1940s country-home living room with leopard-spot wool, and Yves Saint Laurent, whose 1971 Left Bank apartment featured a sea of cut pile in white silk. Today, wall-to-wall carpeting is taking back the narrative.
