As part of the Americasmart programme Geoff Duckworth Senior Designer and Graphics Manager for Tamarian Carpets will be presenting a seminar on ‘The making of a custom rug’, which will begin with an introduction to the materials and weaving process with some ideas on how to sell custom rugs in your showroom by Chris Saliga, Director of Sales for Tamarian. Duckworth will then cover four steps of the design process: Ideas and Inspirations, Rendering, Loom and Finished product. He will use practical examples of each step along the way.

The event will take place in Tamarian Carpets Showroom 6E18 in the Atlanta Merchandise Mart on Friday 15 January 9-10am. A light breakfast will be served. RSVP to Erica (00 1) 410-321-6222.
