“ As well as making our beautiful washable rugs accessible for everyone, continuing to champion British craftsmanship is a big part of why we do what we do. By manufacturing our products here, we’ re able to make Hug Rug products as sustainably as possible, using local materials and empowering the local community. We really do feel this is what makes Hug Rug so special, and it translates into the final product. You can tell that every one of our rugs, doormats and bath mats is made with care and designed to last, not only providing practical and stylish flooring solutions but also creating products that feel connected to the place that they’ re from and the people they’ re made by. It’ s wonderful to see homeowners are prioritising handcrafted, Britishmade products like ours more and more.” Lizzie Mosley, Creative Director at Hug Rug.
“ There’ s a renewed appreciation for traditional craftsmanship in interiors, especially in textiles like rugs and carpets. This trend celebrates the skill and details behind intricately patterned floor coverings, which bring texture and history to modern homes,” notes Jodie Hatton, Design Manager at heritage carpet company Brintons.
Hatton continues:“ Incorporate carefully crafted rugs that draw inspiration from heritage designs, such as our Agnella by Brintons for the V & A collection. Pair these with clean and contemporary furnishings to create a balanced look that honours craftsmanship while feeling fresh and current.”
