Our Carpet Design Course is an immersive, hands-on program that guides students through the intricacies of designing and creating beautiful, functional carpets. Suitable for both beginners and those with some prior design experience, this course offers a deep dive into the historical, cultural, and technical aspects of carpet artistry.

Students will begin by exploring the rich history and traditions of carpet design from various regions, including Persian, Turkish, Indian, and contemporary styles. Emphasis is placed on understanding how different cultures have influenced patterns, color choices, and weaving techniques, providing a global perspective on the craft. The course then moves into the technical side, covering essential topics such as material selection (wool, silk, cotton), color theory, and texture application, allowing students to develop a keen eye for creating balanced and visually appealing designs.

Key elements of the course include learning various weaving methods and knotting techniques, as well as understanding how to translate designs into actual woven pieces. Students will engage in practical projects, where they will sketch, plan, and execute their own carpet designs, honing their skills from conception to completion. Along the way, instructors will guide them in choosing the right tools, materials, and techniques suited to their design vision.

The course also includes a focus on the business aspects of carpet design, covering pricing, marketing, and sourcing materials, making it ideal for those interested in pursuing a professional career in carpet design or rug-making. By the end of the course, students will be equipped with both creative and technical skills to create high-quality, customized carpets and rugs.
