Project Overview:
-
Location: Istanbul, Turkey
-
Area: 1,200 Square Meters
-
Product Used: Bespoke 80% Wool / 20% Nylon Axminster Mosque Carpet
The Challenge:
A century-old historic mosque was undergoing a massive restoration. The Ministry of Culture required the new carpet to replicate the exact colors and intricate floral motifs of the original, hand-woven antique carpet, while upgrading to modern safety and durability standards.
Our Solution:
Our heritage design division scanned remnants of the original carpet to digitally reconstruct the classic Ottoman-era patterns. We chose an 80% wool and 20% nylon Axminster blend—the gold standard for commercial durability and color clarity. The yarn was custom-dyed using eco-friendly, fade-resistant dyes to match the precise historical color palette.
