A Berber rug brings many benefits with it. The distinctive pattern feels architectural which means Berber rugs can blend well with clean and contemporary schemes as well as more traditional ones. “Berber is a construction method for rugs involving alternating sizes of loops to create texture and pattern. This construction is tightly woven which creates a durable rug and also helps keep spills on the surface, at least temporarily, so that liquids can be addressed before soaking into the carpet,” says Elisabeth Lyons Becker, Design Director at MDI Interior Design.
This hints at another benefit, Berber rugs create a durable and beautiful surface that can survive in high-foot traffic areas. Washable versions make things even easier, allowing you to handle spills and stains with ease.
