They’re certainly beautiful, they can be elegant and luxurious, and they work well with any style. But how can you be sure of what you’re getting? After all, the very fact that the best rugs are handmade and often one-of-a-kind makes assessing the true value a confusing proposition—unless you go to the source. And if you're looking for the source, Birmingham Design Studio is the best place to be.

We are direct merchants and have personally chosen every rug we have offered for more than 20 years. Why does this matter? Because as a direct supplier we know everything about your selection, and that means you get the complete story—the origin of the rug; who made the rug; an accurate evaluation of the design, color and technique—you get an assurance of quality and the satisfaction of knowing you found a superb quality rug without having to travel out of state, or even out of the country! In fact many collectors and other merchants come to us for help in finding exactly the right rug for their home or client. Our selection represents the finest collection of rugs at virtually every price point.

 
“Knowledge, service, value—that is why I shop at Birmingham Design Studio”

Sometimes the only place the perfect rug exists is in your imagination. You can see the colors. The pattern. The way it will complement your room. But can you get it? Absolutely. We can take your vision and bring it to life in a custom-made rug. Here’s just one example: When Art-Harrison Interior Design was creating a room for The Detroit Symphony Orchestra Designer Show House, they came to us with swatches of color and fabric, and a sketch. They asked us to create a rug that would be a highlight of the room. And so it came to be. In less than five months, Art-Harrison had the rug it wanted–a 10' x 16' hand-knotted Tibetan that was just as it had hoped—a spectacular addition to the room. So ask us how we can create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece for you.

“It has been our pleasure to work with Kamran and Kristi through the years as they have guided us on our search for the perfect rugs, as well as assisted us with custom rugs, to complete our interior projects.”

A message from kamran karimpour...

 
For as long as I can recall, Persian rugs have been part of the fabric of my life. As my appreciation of this woven art form grew, so did my desire to share my knowledge with others. I invite you to take advantage of my expertise to ensure that your rugs are appraised at the proper insured value. My wife, Kristi, and I are both Certified Oriental rug appraisers registered with the Oriental Rug Retailers of America. We would be glad to meet with you, either at our gallery or at your home.
