Oriental Rug Store in Birmingham, MI
Hand-knotted oriental rugs and modern rugs are the foundation or our business. Owners Kamran and Kristi Karimpour are Certified Rug Appraisers (CRA) with deep expertise that extends into every aspect of purchasing fine rugs, from knowing where to find the best sources to protecting and maintaining your rug once it’s in your home.
We have long-standing relationships with a variety of specialized workshops worldwide and we’ve taken the time to learn exactly what traditional techniques their artisans use when weaving a masterpiece.
When you work with us, you will know you’re getting true quality. Our philosophy revolves around building a relationship with our clients that doesn’t end after the initial transaction. We truly see every purchase as a beautiful beginning.
Our offerings include an extensive range of hand-knotted oriental rugs in a variety of styles from the ornate and traditional Iranian Rugs to the sophisticated contemporary and modern rugs.
We serve as direct importers and have personally chosen every rug we’ve sold over the last 32 years. As oriental rug experts with two ORRA certified appraisers in-house, we can provide our clients with the full story— from the origin of the rug, its maker, and the techniques used to an accurate evaluation of every material and how it will perform over time.
Our rug store fulfills every facet: oriental rug insurance appraisals, expert oriental rug cleaning and rug repair. We’ll even ship rugs to out-of-state clients so they can try them out in their homes before making it official. Contact us to start your personal fine rug buying experience.
We approach each project as a complete composition—where every element works together as part of a cohesive whole.
From the initial concept through the final details, we guide you through a thoughtful process—refining scale, materials, and finishes so that every decision feels intentional.
Once we understand how you live, we translate that into a clear and considered direction—bringing together furnishings, fabrics, lighting, and architectural details in a way that feels natural, balanced, and distinctly yours.
Our role is not simply to select pieces, but to shape an environment. One where everything belongs, and nothing feels out of place.
Selecting art is deeply personal.
Our Birmingham studio provides a curated introduction to original artwork, prints, and custom framing, while representing only a small portion of the artwork and resources available through our network of artists, galleries, and collectors.
Once we understand what resonates with you and how you want a room to feel, we help source pieces that bring depth, character, and individuality to the space.
From original paintings to custom framing details, every selection is considered in relation to the home as a whole — creating interiors that feel layered, collected, and distinctly personal.
At Birmingham Design Studio, furniture is never selected in isolation.
Each piece is considered in the context of how you live — how it feels in the room, how it relates to everything around it, and how it contributes to a space that feels complete.
Our Birmingham showroom offers a refined introduction to our collection, but it represents only a fraction of what we have access to.
Through our network of leading manufacturers, artisans, and custom workrooms, we source and create pieces that go far beyond what any one showroom can display.
Whether furnishing a single room or an entire home, we guide each decision with clarity and intention — creating interiors that feel layered, cohesive, and distinctly yours.
Our Birmingham showroom offers access to a far broader selection of luxury fabrics, trims, wallcoverings, and textiles than what is physically displayed in our studio.
Through longstanding relationships with leading textile houses including Kravet, Pindler, Schumacher, Fabricut, Ralph Lauren, we help clients discover materials rarely represented within conventional retail or more limited design environments.
Every fabric is considered in relation to the architecture of the home, the furnishings around it, and the way our clients want the space to feel.
When it comes to home décor, it’s often the smaller details that bring warmth, character, and individuality to a room.
Our Birmingham showroom offers a curated introduction to decorative accents, sculpture, mirrors, candle holders, objects, and accessories selected to add depth and personality to a thoughtfully designed home.
Through long standing industry relationships, we provide access to a far broader range of decorative resources and artisan collections than what is physically represented within the studio.
Our design team helps clients layer these finishing elements in a way that feels cohesive, collected, and distinctly personal.
Well-considered window treatments soften a space, shape the light, and bring balance to a room.
At Birmingham Design Studio, we guide clients through custom draperies, blinds, shades, shutters, and designer textiles selected specifically for the architecture, furnishings, and character of the home.
Rather than limiting clients to a fixed collection, we source from a broad network of leading manufacturers and workrooms, including Hunter Douglas, presenting options tailored to the architecture and character of each project.
From understated panels to fully tailored treatments, every detail is considered in relation to how the space is meant to live and feel.
