I want a rug with the Mandelbrot Set on it. Any idea where I could get one from? Google tells me nothing.

Hmm. Eek! This sounds like something that ought to be possible to be cheaper if done in sufficient volume. I guess however manufacturers of bespoke rugs have no real interest in pushing down to sub-£1,000 prices.

So either I can set up a cheap bespoke rug manufacturing business, and do it myself, or try to find a boring production-line one, or just give up.

The only thing I could think of which seems plausible would be to approach a rug business and impress upon them the saleability of a mandlebrot design so much that they put one into regular production. The only company that comes to mind for me would be Trans-Ocean, but I can't find any contact info with a very cursory search. My google-fu sucks this morning.

You might do a search for them through - perhaps you'll actually find a rug which already exists that you'll like, they make quite nice stuff which wears nicely. I've no idea how availability in the UK is, however.

That's a much better idea! I can't be the only person unimpressed with conventional rug designs...
