The strength of the rugs is a beautiful interplay between yarn and design. Alfred chose a 100% natural fiber, New Zealand wool and Tibetan highland wool. The Tibetan wool is a hand-spun yarn with a rich character.
The rugs have a nice texture and are pleasant to touch. The strong contrasts of the rugs give the series a timeless and contemporary character, a feature that is in line with the rest of the Alfred home collection.
The craft and tradition of hand weaving enhances the special character of the rugs. Each rug is woven and finished with great care. This technique allows designing for a specific space, to meet a customer's special wish or in function of a project.
The Nepali carpets carry the STEP label, STEP is the fair trade non-profit organization committed to the wellbeing of weavers and workers in the handmade carpet industry.

The curtains are made out of 40% wool and 60% linen. This mixture offers a beautiful result. Wool is a fabric that wrinkles very little, which is a great feature. We weave the fabric of our curtains in Belgium using very durable wool and Belgian linen of magnificent quality. We offer our knowledge and expertise in curtains and rugs to architects, interior designers, shopkeepers or any other interested person and we can join them on location to determine the best fit.
All our curtains can be made to measure. Our services include manufacturing and fitting. We can also design specifically to meet the needs of a building or room. For many years, we have been working with the same sewing professionals, whose skills and feel for finish are unrivalled.
Of course, all our fabrics can be purchased by the meter with a standard width of 150cm. For larger surfaces, we can provide the fabric at 300cm width. All fabrics can be made fireproof, on request.

We developed for the Antwerp based design label Valerie_Objects four series of handwoven carpets in 100% wool. Fran, Frenzy, Lucy and Ivy. The four series come in three sizes and excel in durability and sobriety. This is not ‘fast design’ that expires after a year but a reverence of the archetype of a carpet, pure in form and function. All carpets are crafted with in a mixture of two top-shelf wools from New Zealand and Portugal. “The New Zealand wool offers the right softness while the Portuguese adds strength.

This Arte collection designed by Marie Mees and Cathérine Biasino goes beyond the flat wall-covering and brings the wall enchantingly to life. The technique of printing and the application of relief is used to give light the opportunity to transform the wall, or, as the renowned French architect Le Corbusier so poetically put it, ‘le jeu savant des formes sous la lumière’ (the clever game of forms in light). The surface of the wall is such that it changes according to the intensity of light and the angle from which it is viewed. It is the right variegation of matt and shiny printing or small and subtle changes in relief that make this extra experience possible.
