We’ve collated industry expert insights, sales data, and search trends from the last year to bring you Tapi’s most sought-after carpet for the coming year. Which one will be triumphant? Who will take the title from 2024’s Carpet of the Year winner, Motto? Drum roll, please…
That’s right - Motto is so good, it’s won it twice! A crowd-pleaser and a bestseller, this sumptuously soft Saxony carpet has taken home the coveted crown two years in a row.
Charlie Harris, Director of Buying at Tapi, explains the reason why: “We're pleased to announce that Motto will be our Carpet of the Year for the second year running. Since we introduced Motto in 2022, it's consistently been a hit with our customers, and it shows no signs of slowing down as we move into 2025. All you need to do is touch this carpet and you will fall in love with its softness and comfort underfoot.”
Created from 100% polypropylene, Motto feels deep and luxurious underfoot but is also amazingly good value. Motto manages the hustle and bustle of family life, with heavy use on flat floors and medium use on stairs and comes with a free 10-year manufacturers’ threadbare guarantee. It’s super-duper soft and the high tog rating means it’s great for keeping your rooms extra snug too.
Motto is a true all-rounder for almost every dry room in your home. From your bedroom to your living room, this stylish carpet has all the features of a top-end carpet at incredible value. With stain resistance and easy cleaning properties, this Saxony carpet is perfect for busy households with pets and children. Our carpet care guide explains how easy it is to care for your Motto carpet and our carpet stain removal tips show you exactly what to do in case of spillages.
Motto is scientifically proven to be one of our softest carpets ever, with a luscious thickness and a density you can sink your feet into. All our carpets are spun 12,000 times in a specialist machine to mimic three years of footsteps. We compare every single one to give a score we stand by. We’ve tested how well Motto will perform over time based on the average usage of a family of four, and it’s really good.
Here's a video of our winner's 'best bits':
Are you thinking of getting Motto for your own home? The collection is available in a wide variety of shades - from sophisticated greys and mellow neutrals to earthy greens and moody blues. You’re sure to find something to match your scheme.
The top three Motto colours over the last year are slate, cream, and beige. Let’s take a look at some trend-led insights as to why these colours are so popular, as well as how to style these shades in your home.
Dark grey carpet was absolutely huge in 2023, and it’s still the number one carpet colour choice for Motto for 2024! If you’re searching for a carpet colour that hides dirt while also looking luxurious, dark grey is the answer. This moody and magnificent colour is the perfect shade to pair with a dusky blue, or a stark white, or even a soft black to create a deep, bold colour scheme for your home.
You can use slate as a neutral backdrop for vibrant accents or pair it with other neutral palettes like white or beige. Use this shade to create a sense of continuity throughout your home. Slate can serve as a base for creating focal points with other design elements like colourful wall art or artwork.
Colour drenching is going to be big in 2025 – that’s using the same colour across your walls, ceiling, and floor. A dark grey room with dark furniture and just a few metallic accent pieces to catch the light will make any space feel cosy and inviting.
Thanks to stain resistance technology, it seems we’re becoming more open to the idea of a cream carpet in our home. In the last year, there has been a 23% increase in searches for cream carpets. Seems like there are people interested in bringing this gentle neutral into their décor.
A cream carpet can make a room feel bright and airy. It reflects light well, which can make spaces appear more open and welcoming, particularly in rooms with limited natural light. The timeless shade works well in minimalist and Scandinavian-style interiors.
Natural stone and cream tones is a trend you’ll be seeing a lot of in 2025. Pairing cream-toned carpets with wooden accents, terracotta accessories, and stone elements helps to create a grounded and calming space. Use earthy colours on the walls and a touch of greenery to complete this organic look.
Earthy neutrals like beige have seen a 22% increase in 2024 and show no signs of stopping for 2025.
A beige carpet offers that perfect balance of style and practicality. It’s a blank canvas for any style of décor and looks equally good in new and older homes. Mix with black accessories for a modern monochrome scheme or use warm woods and antique gold touches for a traditional luxe look.
Beige is a key colour in the upcoming textured tones trend. It’s about blending together different textures and warming up your colour palette to create a welcoming retreat. Think panelled walls, herringbone floors and super soft carpets combined with nature-inspired tones.
If you’re considering a new carpet, the first thing you need to do is to talk to Tapi!
