Tailored Underfoot: How Custom Rugs Are Redefining Luxury Living
In luxury interior design, there's no such thing as one-size-fits-all — especially when it comes to what's underfoot. Luxury carpet or a custom rug isn't just a finishing touch. It's a design anchor that pulls the entire room together with beautiful precision and exceptional performance.
The Hallmarks of a Luxury Rug
Premium Materials
Natural fibers like New Zealand wool, silk blends, viscose, and Tencel deliver performance and beauty.
Artisan Craftsmanship
Hand-tufting, hand-knotting, and Wilton woven construction create richer textures and deeper colors.
Most rugs come in predetermined sizes like 5x8 or 8x10, but few rooms match these measurements perfectly.
Custom Solution
Made-to-order options from luxury brands allow exact length, width, and shape selection down to the inch.
Custom size rugs eliminate the compromise between too small (making rooms feel disjointed) and too large (overwhelming delicate design elements).
Design Without Limits
Color Customization
Match exact colors to complement drapery, furniture, or any design element.
Pattern Selection
Choose from hundreds of patterns, from bold geometrics to subtle textures.
Finishing Details
Select pile height, edging options, and borders for the perfect final touch.
