ROGER OATES DESIGN

Roger Oates Design is an award-winning, industry-leading flooring brand, renowned for distinctive striped stair runners and rugs.

Combining artisan heritage with a contemporary approach, Roger Oates Design creates luxury 100% wool stair runners and rugs defined by good design, UK production and responsible material choices.

For over 35 years, the company has created iconic striped flatweave flooring traditionally woven on specially adapted Hattersley looms in small-scale mills.  Expanding its collections, Roger Oates now offers innovative hand-tufted rugs showcasing modern craftsmanship, made and finished by hand in Devon. 

The timeless designs, in carefully curated colours, are individually crafted. Each piece is fully customisable in colour, size and texture, with the design team working closely with interior designers to create bespoke flooring for unique projects. At every stage of production, skilled craftspeople bring the brand’s vision to life, connecting design with the people and processes behind it. 

Proudly celebrating British wool, the company sources through The Woolkeepers, a transparent and verified wool community that provides sourcing integrity and a fair wool price for the farmers, with traceability back to the farm where the sheep are reared. This partnership honours the connection between design, craftsmanship and the land.

Roger Oates Design has showrooms in London and Herefordshire, supported by a network of stockists offering advice, measuring and installation services.
