Who are Vincent Sheppard?

Vincent Sheppard have been at the forefront of designing and manufacturing furniture since 1992. Our market leading brand, Lloyd Loom has a fabulous collection of indoor and outdoor seating. The furniture is created using a technique where Kraft paper is twisted around a metal wire and woven into unique and individual furniture pieces.

Vincent Sheppard furniture can now be found in over fifty countries worldwide, with headquarters based in Belgium running the whole operation. Our production plants are based in Indonesia a country steeped in history for weaving.

The word craftsmanship is at the cornerstone of what we believe. We honour and preserve the tradition and history of the Lloyd Loom weaving technique. We have developed a very close collaboration with the people of Cirebon, Indonesia, known for weaving and bending rattan. This was the perfect place to establish our main production plant. Utilising the skills and knowledge of the local craftsmen can elevate the products to become pieces of art. Every piece handcrafted to perfection. Over the years we have added to our production range with natural colours and also additional durable materials.

As a company we are not only passionate about our products, but also the local environment and the welfare of our overseas work force. The company also has an ecological mindset and we are very conscious about the consumption of resources, recycling and the cleansing of waste water. In 2013 we received the FSC label by the Forest Stewardship Council which is a symbol of environmental, economic and social sustainability.

Indoor Ranges

Our indoor furniture range is designed with comfort at the forefront. we create tables, chairs, sofas, lighting and accessories in many different materials with a very distinct design style. We are known to experiment with all types of materials and combinations and create for all tastes.

Outdoor Furniture

Originally the outdoor range mainly consisted of Lloyd Loom furniture that was treated for use outdoors. Over the years the demand for great qualitative designs in a variety of all weather materials helped us to create a new range of synthetic furniture that can be left outside all year round. Comfort is our upmost priority and we are very proud to supply some of the most beautiful restaurants and hotels across the globe.

So for something a little different why not take a look at the Vincent Sheppard furniture range.

Rug Placement Ideas for the Home

Rugs are a great addition to any home, they have the ability to transform a space, soften the appearance of a room, give a definition of your style, make a room feel cosier and some are even considered pieces of art that simply can be shown off to become the focal point.

Below we have some rug placement ideas to consider for placing a rug in your home.

Give your living room a refresh with some simple changes and updates

Expand the room with wide & striped

Choosing a wide rug that has bold stripes such as black and white zebra-esque one can give a space the appearance of being wider than it actually is.

Don’t obscure its beauty

Found a rug that you have fallen in love with, why keep it covered up and hidden by furniture. If placing under a table go for a glass one rather than the opaque wooden one. The best part; glass tables fit into both modern and traditional design.

Don’t be afraid of geometric

Geometric patterned rugs look brilliant in even the most tradition of places and can pair up great with both solid and patterned fabrics.

Get the size right

It’s important to think about the size of the rug and what you want it to cover and not cover. For example, if you are placing a rug in a dining room you will want to have enough amount of rug so that it spans a distance that will allow the chair to be slid in and out of the table without leaving the area of the rug and getting caught on the edge of it.

Define area of traffic

Use a rug to define the major traffic lanes in your home, using runners you can create interesting transitions between one place and another.

Placing rugs on carpet

It might seem like the wrong thing to do or even a design blunder to add a rug to an already carpeted room, but done right it can create different sectors in a room and if you are renting a property it can improve the overall look of the room and add a little of your own touch to it.

When laying any rugs on or off carpet make sure it is not a trip hazard for anyone living in the property, especially for the elderly.

Areas of high traffic will benefit from placing a washable hallway runner which will prevent the carpet from gaining excessive wear.  These carpets, due to the repeated walking they will encounter will often shift so choosing one with a foam backing is ideal as well as picking a colour that will blend or complement your homes colour scheme of course.

Define sectors or areas of interest in larger rooms, for example place a rug in front of your mantel piece which houses all of your fancy ornaments to attract people to this spot, place under a coffee table or sofa to emphasise them in the room or if your dining room and kitchen share the same floor space use a rug to differentiate between them, giving them both their own personality and look.

Talking of dining rooms, these are great places to place a rug. Not only does it help define the eating area, if placed under the dining table and chairs it will also act as a great food cache stopping your main carpet being stained or damaged. It’s always cheaper to replace a rug rather than a carpet.

This idea of avoiding stains is also perfect for anyone renting a property and wants to avoid damaging or staining the carpets and potentially having to pay out for them.

Colourful patterned rugs will work well on carpets with a low pile and a neutral colour, the colour of carpet will create a framed look around the colourful rug. Do avoid mixing different textures of carpet and rug, for example if your carpet is high pile then don’t choose a high pile rug to place on it rather go for a low pile.

If you would like any more advice or information on choosing a rug, then please give us a call on 0115 9258347 or email us at info@kingsinteriors.com where a member of staff will be only happy to assist.
