Design Your Dream Rug: A step-by-step guide to customise your rug?
A finely crafted rug is not merely a home accessory; it's an extension of your personal story, a quiet expression of taste, and a reflection of enduring artistry. At Kaleen, we understand that every space holds its own emotion and character. Through our different custom rug programs, we invite you to co-create a piece that feels truly yours - woven not just with yarn, but with intent and imagination.
Step 1: Begin with the Space
Every bespoke rug begins with an understanding of space. Consider the dimensions of the room, the play of light, and the purpose of the area. A rug beneath your feet should not only fit the room - it should enhance its soul. Define whether you seek to anchor your furniture, create zones in an open layout, or simply introduce a touch of timeless beauty.
Step 2: Choose a Foundation That Lasts
The essence of a fine rug lies in its material. At Kaleen, we offer a carefully curated selection-hand-spun wool for warmth and heritage, viscose for gentle lustre, and sustainable options like PET yarn or organic blends for conscious living. Each material carries its own texture, resilience, and charm.
Step 3: Let the Design Unfold
Traditional motifs, modern geometry, or fluid abstraction - your design direction should echo your personal aesthetic. Draw from our extensive design library or collaborate with our in-house designers to interpret your vision.
Step 4: Curate Your Colour Palette
Colour has the power to evoke emotion and energy. From soft neutrals and earthy tones to bold, regal hues - every shade is carefully dyed using GOTS certified yarns, ensuring both richness and responsibility. Together, we build a palette that complements your space and speaks your language.
Step 5: Select the Weave and Texture
Whether you are drawn to the plushness of a hand-tufted rug, the detail of a hand-knotted weave, or the simplicity of a flatweave, the construction determines the character of the rug. Pile height, finishing, edge detailing, rug backing - every detail can be personalised to suit your sensibility.
Step 6: Approve Your Creation
Once the design is finalised, a CAD file is shared for your review. We honour your vision and involve you in every decision - ensuring the final piece feels as close to your imagination as it does to the floor beneath.
Step 7: Crafted by Masters, Just for You
Your rug is now entrusted to the skilled hands of our artisans. With generations of knowledge passed down through hand and heart, your creation is brought to life - slowly, patiently, and with unmatched care.
At Kaleen, every customised rug is a dialogue between tradition and individuality. A rug designed by you and crafted by us becomes more than décor - it becomes legacy.
