According to Domotex, a trade fair organiser of carpets and floor coverings, one of its exhibitors, Zollanvari installed hand made carpets at the Retreat hotel which hosted the G7 summit in early June.

Zollanvari, a producer and supplier of handmade carpets will once again be participating at the next Domotex show to be held from January 16-19, 2015 in Hannover, Germany.

“Zollanvari achieved added prominence in early summer this year also due to its involvement in a project for the prestigious hotel Schloss Elmau in Bavaria,” a Domotex press release informed.

“Both the hotels owned by Dietmar Müller-Elmau, has a penchant for handcrafted carpets and personally calls all the design shots at his hotel establishments,” the trade fair organiser added.

This is not only evident in the carpets used for the refurbishment of the Schloss Elmau hotel, but also in the beautiful flooring designed by Müller-Elmau and produced by Zollanvari for the new Retreat hotel.

“The resulting carpet creations are appealingly minimalistic and make a bold statement by virtue of their outstanding quality and special radiance resulting from the interplay between two shades of red,” it informed.

A plain border of light red surrounds a darker red area, thus evoking an expansive feel and the modern Persian carpets feature a very low 5 mm nap, which reduces the risk of stumbling.

As the dominant colour scheme, the hotel has gold, natural wood hues and red and so Dietmar Müller-Elmau opted for 100 per cent highland wool in the rich red tones of natural plant dyes.

Amaleh carpets have been traditionally handcrafted by the nomadic Amaleh people of Southern Iran for centuries.

The carpets are dyed red using common madder, but the exact composition of the natural red dyes used remains a secret.

Older roots are used to achieve darker hues, while younger roots produce lighter shades and the yarn is woven in different layers, making the carpets more hardwearing and creating rich and harmonious colour effects.

Handmade carpets are just one example of the myriad possibilities open to architects and interior designers wishing to achieve beautiful contemporary floor designs.

“Creative professionals from the fields of architecture, interior design and decorating will find ample inspiration and ideas for individual flooring design at Domotex 2016,” it informed.

This trade fair has long been a leading international forum for the flooring sector and it is here that designers come to compare notes and catch up on the latest trends and fresh ideas,” the organiser noted. (AR)
