Custom Size Rugs: Perfect Fit, Personalized Style

Introduction

For centuries rugs are known to serve dual purpose - to protect floors and add a touch of beauty and comfort to our living spaces. From the intricately woven tapestries and the Aubusson rugs of the Orient. To the vibrant Flat Weave kilim rugs and Mid-Century Scandinavian rugs scattered across the orient, rugs have always expressed cultural identity. Today, the tradition continues, but it comes with a modern twist.

A Brief History of Rugs: From Nomadic Beginnings to Global Phenomenon

The origin of rugs can be traced back to nomadic tribes in Central Asia who used woven textiles for warmth and insulation in their tents. These rugs were made from materials like wool, felt, and animal skins and were readily available. With the civilizations developing and trade flourished, carpet and rug production became more elaborate incorporating intricate designs and vibrant colors.

  • The Persian Empire, modern day Iran, is renowned for its beautiful classic and traditional hand knotted pile rugs; characterized by their deep pile and intricate patterns.
  • Turkish rugs, known for their geometric designs and bold colors, became a popular export during the Ottoman Empire.
  • European rug production emerged during the Renaissance, with tapestries depicting mythological and religious scenes right through the 20th Century Scandinavian Flat Weave Kilims.

Today, rugs are available in a variety of styles, materials, and sizes that suits any décor. However, finding the perfect pre-made rugs complementing your space and vision can be challenging sometimes. This is where custom carpets and rugs come in.

Why Choose Custom Size Rugs?

With custom rugs, you can make a carpet with the right design and colors that complements your space.

Here are few reasons why you should consider custom rugs:

  • Fits Perfectly: Custom rugs can be made as per any dimension to fit the space, making sure to provide a cohesive and polished look.
  • Freedom to design: Unleash your inner designer. Choose from a wide range of available colors, patterns, and materials for creating a one-of-a-kind rug that reflects your personal style.
  • Increased functionality: Custom Rugs can be designed for a specific reason. Need a runner for a long hallway or a circular rug to define a dining area? Customization allows you to achieve the desired functionality.

Finding Custom Size Rugs is Easier Than You Think

  • Online Retailers: Many online retailers provide the option of custom sizing a carpet and a rug. Browse through their selection, choose your design, and specify the dimensions you need. However, when you are ready to make the rug of your dreams, select a business with an actual showroom or a storefront. You do need to see the color selection in person and to feel the texture of the material used to make your rug.
  • Local Carpet Stores: Many carpet stores partner with rug manufacturers and can help you design and order a custom rug. However, working with someone local who has the knowledge and the experience working with carpets and rugs could have a positive outcome.
