Carpets, or floor mats, are actually quite common in modern homes. Especially under the coffee table in the living room, this kind of carpet often plays a decorative role and often matches the European decoration style. However, maybe you don’t know, in fact, these places in the home – not under the coffee table, are the most in need of placing floor mats.
main entrance. Placing a floor mat at the door of the home is a choice for many families. It is said that placing floor mats in this position has many uses. First, clean and hygienic. You can wipe off the mud and dust from the soles before entering the house and enter the home cleanly. From the feng shui point of view, these muddy water and dust are all bad auras. If you clean them up and then enter your home, the bad auras will also be blocked from the door. Secondly, the outdoor and indoor are clearly separated to remind the owner of the home that they are home! Therefore, many designers will design the door mat to be full of personality, making it the facade of the home and a reflection of the home owner’s preference.
bathroom. A floor mat is placed in front of the bathroom door, and its role is also quite obvious. The bathroom is a relatively special space in the home, and the moisture is quite heavy, and it is inevitable to bring a little water when entering and leaving. If you put a floor mat in front of the bathroom door, you can absorb the water in the bathroom when you come out, reduce the situation that water stains are printed on the living room or other places with shoes, and improve the cleanliness of the home.
kitchen. The most obvious feature of the kitchen can be said to be a lot of oil smoke. And if the fumes get on the shoes, it will also bring a lot of trouble to other parts of the home, at least it will increase the difficulty of cleaning. Therefore, placing a floor mat in front of the kitchen door can also make the oil stains on the shoes scraped off when leaving the kitchen, effectively keeping the home clean and reducing labor intensity.
However, don’t think that putting a floor mat can be done once and for all. In fact, the worst thing about floor mats is that they are dirty. From a feng shui point of view, these dirty floor mats are a bad aura that will bring bad luck to the home. From a scientific point of view, if the floor mat is not cleaned and replaced in time, it will become a place for bacteria to inhabit and breed, thus bringing health risks to the home. And a dirty floor mat, especially the floor mat at the gate, will affect the image of the home. Therefore, the floor mats must be cleaned frequently and replaced regularly in order to make the floor mats play their due role.
