About Us: The Art of Woven Innovation

At Thibault Van Renne, we believe a rug should be more than a foundation; it should be the soul of a room, a piece of woven art that tells a story of heritage, innovation, and unparalleled craftsmanship. We don't just create luxury carpets—we craft future heirlooms, each with a legacy woven into every knot.

Our journey is deeply rooted in the personal history of our founder, Thibault Van Renne. Raised in the world of exquisite textiles, Thibault’s youth was a vibrant tapestry of discovery, traveling to the heartlands of carpet-making and learning from the masters. This early immersion gave him not just an eye for quality, but a profound vision: to revolutionize the traditional rug.

In 2006, he launched his eponymous brand to challenge convention. His mission was to forge an audacious link between the time-honored, ancestral techniques of hand-knotting and the limitless potential of contemporary digital design. The result is a collection of artisanal floor coverings that are both timeless and truly of the moment.

Our Design Philosophy: Fusing Past and Future

What makes a Thibault Van Renne creation unique is the dialogue it creates between two different worlds. Our design process is an intricate dance where heritage meets innovation. We draw inspiration from classical motifs, abstract art, architectural geometry, and the subtle textures of the natural world.

We are pioneers in our field, proving that technology and pure craft are not antagonists, but powerful allies. This synergy allows us to push the boundaries of what is possible in handmade rug production, creating designs with a depth, detail, and emotional resonance that is simply unmatched.

Recognized by Design Leaders Worldwide

Our relentless pursuit of excellence and our contribution to the world of interior design have not gone unnoticed. We are exceptionally proud that our commitment to innovation was recognized with two of the industry's most coveted awards for our groundbreaking "Spaces" collection in 2020:

Winner of the European Product Design Award
Winner of the Architizer A+Awards (Popular Choice)

These accolades stand as a testament to our role as a rising star and innovator in the high-end world of luxury carpets.

The Art of Creation: A Commitment to True Craft

Every Thibault Van Renne rug is a masterpiece of human skill, brought to life in our esteemed ateliers in India and Nepal. The journey of each piece is one of patience and precision, beginning with the selection of the world's finest natural materials, including lustrous hand-spun silks and rich, hand-carded wool.

Our master artisans, whose skills have been passed down through generations, employ ancient hand-knotting techniques to translate our visionary designs into tangible works of art. This dedication to authentic craftsmanship is inseparable from our commitment to ethical production. As a proud supporter of Care & Fair, we stand firmly against child labour and ensure fair wages and positive working conditions for our artisans and their communities.
