    I’ve never lived in a flat/house with carpet floors. Always tiles, wood floors, pvc, vinyl, linoleum or wood laminate. I don’t think I’ve ever visited a home with carpet flooring. The only places I know it from is hotels and videos of really old run down ruins that need to be ripped apart and renovated from the base.

    It gives me the ick, I feel like they’re always dirty and dusty. Normally I’m not squeamish, but I just don’t feel comfortable on carpet flooring. I’ve grown up washing my floors wet or swiping. It just doesn’t fit into my head. However, laying a spatially limited carpet on a hard floor is beautiful.

    There. I tried.

      Fair reasoning! I would say you’ve missed out though, a nice (i.e. not horrible, old, and dirty) carpet is warm, cosy, and comfortable to sit on.
