Art Hide specializes in completely bespoke cowhide rugs with unlimited customization options. Unlike other providers, we offer 200+ proprietary colors (including metallics), any size or shape requirements, and a dedicated design team that guides you through the entire process from concept to installation.

The process involves four key stages: initial consultation with our experienced team, design support with concept renders, design development where we tailor existing designs or create something completely unique, and finally, manufacturing. We provide a three-stage sign-off process where clients can view and approve the rug at each stage.

Absolutely! Beyond our 200 proprietary colors, we can accurately match fabric tones or Pantone shades in just one week. If we don't have the exact color you need, we'll develop it specifically for your project requirements.

There are no limitations on size or shape with Art Hide rugs. Our production methods allow rugs to be as wide or long as your project demands, and we can finish them in any desired shape to perfectly fit your space.

Our standard lead time is 4-6 weeks from the date your order is placed. Even the most challenging projects can be completed within this timeframe, from design to installation, setting us apart in the industry.

Yes! We offer two options to help you visualize your rug: our free Room Service 3D Renders that show how your custom rug will look in your space, and our Order a Sample option, where you can order physical samples to loan or keep for just $39 (or $49 for Fusion designs), including free shipping. When samples are returned using the supplied label, we will refund you $20 of this fee.

Definitely. Art Hide has extensive experience creating custom rugs and vertical installations for residential, commercial, and hospitality applications. Our products are designed to make a statement in any environment.

If simply altering the color, then no, it doesn’t normally cost more than a ready-made size. Where there are significant changes to size or scale, there may be a small additional amount to the cost to reflect the design work required. We can also create completely custom designs working with our clients and will quote these before commencing work.

Pricing depends on size, technique, and colour complexity. Standard customisations — changing the colour, shape, or size of an existing design — are included in the standard rug price with no surcharge. Completely bespoke designs, large-scale pieces, custom lasering, and complex tiled layouts are quoted individually before any work begins.

A single hide uses one complete cowhide in its natural shape. A patchwork or tiled rug joins multiple cut pieces into a geometric pattern like chevron, squares, or stripes. Fusion is our proprietary stitchless technique that joins hides seamlessly for a continuous, uninterrupted surface — ideal for very large rugs where visible seams would distract from the design.

Yes. Using precision laser technology, we etch custom logos, monograms, brand marks, or bespoke patterns directly onto the hide. This is popular for hospitality projects, retail fit-outs, and personalised residential pieces.

There's no fixed upper limit. Our Fusion and tiled techniques allow us to produce rugs well beyond standard sizes — including oversized pieces for hotel lobbies, boardrooms, and open-plan residential spaces. If your project has unusual scale requirements, we'll work to your brief.

Art Hide cowhides are ethically sourced from regulated tanneries where tanning and dyeing methods are safe for workers and non-polluting. Our hides are a byproduct of the meat industry — no animal is farmed for its hide alone.

Yes. Our trade programme supports design studios, architects, and hospitality specifiers with dedicated account management, preferential pricing, sample libraries, CAD drawings, and specification support for large projects.

Absolutely. Art Hide has extensive experience creating custom rugs and vertical installations for residential, commercial, and hospitality applications — including hotels, restaurants, retail fit-outs, boardrooms, and private clubs.
