The finalists in the Carpet Design Awards 2015 presented by Innovations@DOMOTEX have now been named. At the end of November an international jury made up of experts from the design professions and the carpet sector selected the best entries from eight categories. The Carpet Design Awards are for contemporary hand-made carpets and rugs that stand out for their superior quality and unique design. More than 250 designer pieces from 23 countries were submitted for the coveted award, and 25 have now made it through to the finals. These chosen few will be showcased in stylish settings at the upcoming DOMOTEX show from 17 to 20 January 2015. The winners in each category will be formally announced at 4.30 p.m. on Sunday, 18 January 2015, in the Innovations@DOMOTEX area in Hall 17.
