The aim of this competition is for you to design a carpet, and CarpetVista will then provide the production.

• The same design can be produced in different color-combinations. (If you provide designs in different color combinations we see this as an added advantage).
• The design should be creative and commercially viable
• The design must be original

• Aim for one of the most common rug shapes

The carpet will be hand-tufted or hand-woven using the highest quality materials. Depending on the motifs the materials are selected, it will be either entirely of wool or with a warp of cotton and a pile of wool. Elements of silk in the pile may also occur.

The design that you submit must not infringe on anybody's intellectual property rights and it must not have been used in previous production. Plagiarism is forbidden and plagiarized designs are immediately disqualified.
