Why hand-tufted carpets are such a favourite – and the new trend that’s changing the game
There’s a reason hand-tufted carpets remain a favourite with interior designers. Their plush texture, sculptural dimension, and artisanal finish bring instant depth and sophistication to any space. More than just floor coverings, hand-tufted carpets are statement pieces that elevate interiors with rich colour, nuanced patterning, and a luxurious underfoot feel.
Why designers love hand-tufted carpets
Hand-tufted carpets strike the perfect balance between artistry and function. Unlike mass-produced options, each piece is crafted with a human touch, giving it a bespoke quality that machine-made carpets can rarely match. The flexibility in design allows for everything from bold, modern graphics to subtle, organic forms, tailored to suit any aesthetic.
Their popularity also stems from their versatility. Hand-tufted rugs can anchor a room, define spaces in open-plan living, or serve as a focal point in otherwise minimal interiors. They work equally well in residential and commercial settings, lending warmth and style wherever they’re placed.
But let’s face it, luxury often comes with lead times and a price tag to match.

Current Trends in Carpet Design
The resurgence of maximalism has brought bold patterning and high-contrast colour palettes back into focus. Interior designers are embracing oversized florals, abstract geometrics, and richly layered motifs to create dramatic floor statements. At the same time, there’s a growing appreciation for subtlety - tone-on-tone textures, carved detailing, and monochromatic palettes that play with light and shadow.
Excalibur Carve responds to both ends of the spectrum. Its advanced textural techniques and colour range allow for statement designs as well as more understated, architectural forms. From soft sculptural waves to sharp graphic lines, the collection supports a diverse design vocabulary, all with the efficiency and accessibility today’s projects demand.
