What size of rug or carpet will work in my...
I was looking for a company that is able to help us make a few bespoke rugs in the size that will suit our living areas as I couldn't find it off the shelves or online. Coincidentally, LivingDNA came up on my search and they were also used by one of the Interior Designers that I follow on IG. We engage their home consultation service. After consultation, we picked two customisable tencel rug designs, the Abstract Mayfair (blue/grey) and re-select a second rug at their lovely Keong Saik showroom, the Gradient rug (blue fade to beige). They work on the design in the colour scheme that was picked by the consultant. Digital design was first sent, after a few reviews, the first rug was made. It took about a month for this rug to be made. We were happy with the result of the Abstract Mayfair. Except for the strange feeling that is left on our feet every time we walk on it, like there's a chemical coating on it. That lost a star for the review. Something worth noting is that due to the nature of tencel rug fibres, the pattern can only be visible in one direction. This wasn't clearly communicated to us by the consultants, they only said the rug will appear light and dark when the fibres are in different directions like how velvet behaves. We originally wanted to place the rug in a certain direction but we couldn't see the pattern, we had to turn the rug 180degrees for the pattern to be visible. Luckily due to the asymmetric design of the pattern, it still works with our furniture placement. Otherwise it would be a total disaster with the nice colour and pattern hidden under our sofa and not be seen. Our second rug was the gradient rug. Designer Fie helped us pick out the colours to match our existing furniture. He showed us a rug sample for approval before the full size rug was made. This rug took close to two months to arrive. It was a hand tufted tencel rug but had a totally different feel compare to the Mayfair rug which is hand-loomed. Note that we had to turn this rug 180 degrees as well instead of our original intention. The Mayfair rug feels flat compared to the gradient rug which feels softer and more plush under foot. After a few months of use, we op to add in an underlay for the Mayfair rug because we preferred a slightly plusher feel underfoot. Overall the rugs are not cheap considering it's not wool, however we like their service and can see the good workmanship, we will reserve a star to observe the wear and tear after regular use. We appreciate that they also send care instructions of how to care for the rug. Happy with the final result we wanted to create for our spaces. Thanks LivingDNA team!
Second purchase from Living DNA. Showroom is abit small and stuffy but rugs are of good quality, hypoallergenic and a tasteful addition to our living room.
Excellent service from Jane who helped us choose the best carpets for our living and Dining. Highly recommend.
Thank you Sanchit for your support and all the rugs look great in your home!
The rug from Living DNA has transformed my living room, pulling together all the different items to complete the look and feel of elegance and coziness I was looking for. The Mayfair abstract cream rug ticked all the boxes for me : soft muted creamy sheen and design to set off the dark pieces, soft under the feet, cat friendly and easy to maintain for my busy lifestyle. Thanks to the warm and professional advice and patience from Fe and Denise that guided the right choice and follow-up care of the carpet. Delivery and installation was on time and professionally done too. Very happy with purchase and experience. Recommended .
Thank you Jane for the great recommendation ! The runner turn up really good and matching my unit :)
Convenient and responsive
Thank you Juliana!
Great shopping experience at Living DNA. Fie in particular is delightful to work with, professional, knowledgeable and patient. We are happy with the four rugs that now furnish our newly renovated apartment.
Have previously purchased 3 rugs from Living DNA, all of which are great and get complimented. After getting a coffee stain on on of the rugs, Living DNA were very responsive and helpful with stain removal solutions.
Glad we were able to help you keep your rugs beautiful and enjoyable for the long term, Ayesha! <3
