Designer Rugs FRONT London presents world's most awarded and innovative rug designers Jan Kath's and Michaela Schleypen's iconic and latest collections.

Jan Kath is one of the most successful and awarded rug designers in the world. He has achieved global recognition with his rug collection ERASED CLASSICS, where classical Italian wall drape patterns and traditional Oriental ornamental rug designs feature the patina of a hundred years of loving care through his development of distressed effects. Rugs designed by Jan Kath are created exclusively fro

m materials of the highest quality, such as Tibetan highland wool, finest Chinese silk, cashmere, and nettle fibres. All rugs are hand made by highly skilled weavers in Nepal, using a traditional high density knotting technique – from 100 to 450 knots per square inch. No two rugs are the same, as clients can choose the size, material and colour spectrum of the heirloom rug that will last for generations! Michaela Schleypen is a true innovator and the creator of many original techniques and materials. She was the first to start rug sculpting, taking rug design to another level. Michaela has even developed her own original colour scale enabling her to create rugs with a unique variety of shades. All rugs are exclusively handmade using a dense tufting technique with New Zealand wool and Chinese silk as well as bold and surprising materials, such as lustre cotton, neon threads and denim and moisture-resistant fibres. Whilst a rug of jewels may sound like a fairytale, Michaela Schleypen gives some of her rugs a flickering shine using Lurex threads and Swarovski crystals. Michaela Schleypen has received many prizes and awards, including the Red Dot Award, Best Carpet Innovation and Elle Decoration International Design Award.
