This country home
features a chunky loop
pile wool carpet from
Cavalier Bremworth
Sustainability influences many of the
decisions we make when planning our
new homes – from the choice of cladding
to the materials used on the interior.
For the owners of this Queenstown
country house designed by Guy Shallard
of Latitude Forty-five, locally sourced
materials were a priority – even the schist
stone for the walls of the house was
quarried on site.
For the soft flooring, the owners chose
a Galet chunky loop pile carpet from
Cavalier Bremworth’s designer Bremworth Collection, which is made from
100% sustainable New Zealand wool.
This has a unique ability to breathe, so it
keeps a home warm in winter and cool in
summer. It is also naturally fire resistant
and stain resistant.
The Galet carpet in this home
features felted wool, made exclusively
for Cavalier Bremworth by Radford
Felted Yarn in Christchurch. Felting is a
process that locks the wool fibres together,
making them stronger and bulkier, which
allows for more interesting textures.
The use of New Zealand lambswool
provides added softness and comfort. The
result is a hardwearing carpet that will
retain its good looks for years to come.
