How can my favorite foods influence my design choices? Inspiration can come from anywhere, so think about your foods of choice.
Chicken noodle soup? Choose a low-level twist in a creamy pasta color. Perhaps a textured plush bordered in a contrasting band would fit the bill.
Steak and potatoes? How about tiger-strand bamboo or a dimensional subway tile offset with a horizontal band of graphic deco’s?
Sushi? Try cork. Consider a glazed ceramic tile with definitive lines. How about a subtle floral area rug?
Your preferences can provide a myriad of inspirational choices. Iron Chef, anyone?

Home theaters are increasing in popularity, as more of us look for ways to increase family time and reconnect.
Consider cork flooring as wall covering when designing your home theater. Cork is sound absorbent, has insulating properties, and has a natural, cocoon-like quality. Cork is a renewable resource, while also a very current selection.
Cork offers a cushioned surface and is an environmentally friendly building product. Cork is contemporary, and easily coordinates with other furnishings in your home, as well as almost any paint color imaginable.
Stop in to Duralum and see for yourself the beauty and long-lasting qualities of cork.

With all of the Hardwood, Ceramic, Cork, Bamboo and Laminate flooring being sold these days, the demand for Area Rugs has skyrocketed. Area Rugs are the perfect finishing touch to any rooms for a variety of reasons:
With all this being said, the next question is: “What is the most efficient way to add Area Rugs to my home?”
At Duralum Carpets we make Area Rugs out of our huge selection of carpet remnants. These rems can be cut to exactly the size you want and are up to 60% off. Generally it takes between one to two weeks to go from selection to delivery. We also have a nice selection on padding that is made for Area Rugs and won’t stain the surface underneath.

We have offered Cork flooring at Duralum Carpets for about 3 years now. The first 2 years we have been getting some questions here and there. This past year I have seen the interest in cork flooring skyrocket! Why? We are located in Stevens Point, WI. And it seems to take fashion and flooring trends awhile to make it to us. Well now cork flooring has really arrived. Here are some of the reasons:
Here is a nice video on cork .
This is how cork is harvested. Note that the tree is 25 to 35 years old before first harvesting. But after that you can harvest every 9 years.
