The Tribe Home Edit

Fibre In Focus - Jute Jute rugs and runners have been an interior staple for many years, with these durable and eco-conscious designs being the perfect base for an array of interior schemes. To ensure you have all the necessary knowledge...

Towards the end of 2021 Tribe Home was one of the first rug companies in Australia to join the TRAKS program. TRAKS is Australia’s first rug recycling program, created by Textile Recyclers Australia and Karie Soehardi Consultancy, the program keeps textile waste from the industry out of landfill by transforming unwanted rugs into yarns that can be used to create new furnishings. 

We all know rugs can be made from a multitude of different fibres - from silk to wool to cotton and everything in between. Each fibre serves a purpose, whether that be to appear shiny and effervescent or to look soft and cozy.

2021 was another year full of the unexpected, and once again we saw our creative community band together to find new and innovative ways to fulfil their vision. 

While not forgetting the past two years, we are now looking forwards to the trends that are expected to dominate the design industry in 2022.

Finding the perfect rug to complete your home is always an exciting time, after all, we believe that at the heart of every home is a beautiful handmade rug. However, once you lay the rug upon your floors you may begin to wonder, how can you keep your rug looking its best self?

At Tribe Home, we have committed ourselves to the Care & Fair human project initiative. The Care & Fair human project works towards terminating unjust practices throughout the carpet weaving regions across India, Nepal and Pakistan. Our donations contribute to the support...

A rug can transform a room, it can make an echoing space feel warm and cosy, a dull space bright and inviting, therefore, it is clear that selecting the right rug for your space is vital. 

Not sure where to start? We have put together a guide to help you find the perfect fit for your home, no matter the space! 

This year Tribe Home celebrates 10 years. With this milestone comes not only celebration but reflection and introspection. 

It was through the love of travelling and a passion for rugs and interior design that led, Owner and Director, Tina Richards to create the brand Tribe Home 10 years ago. Having grown up in a multicultural family in New Zealand, moving to Australia and living abroad, Tina often found herself being asked the endearing question ‘what tribe are you from?’

As we celebrate 10 years of Tribe Home, the theme of tracing the past continues to be a recurring element in everything we do. Our collection of overdyed Vintage Persian carpets captures the essence of this journey through history.

While 2020 can be bookmarked as a year of challenges, it can also be linked to the refined ingenuity and vision of our creative community, ready to take the new year on with an artillery of motivation, inspiration and fresh ideas.

The silly season is right around the corner, and with it comes the feeling your home is a revolving door of friends and family needing to be entertained - which we are all probably thankful for this year.

Understanding the journey of each Vintage Persian rug is the key to uncovering just how extraordinary and rare they are.

You may be asking yourselves why vintage pieces and vintage rugs, such as those in our Vintage Persian collection, are becoming the most coveted home furnishings by everyone in the know?

This collection is a passage of inspiration and discovery, perceived from the ground up. Our designs embrace refined depth with multi layered motifs and colourations, purposefully composed to be suitable for many different atmospheres within a home.

In celebration of Rahim and his collection of Chuk Palu floor cushions, we reached out to the prolific Architect and Interior designer to discover more about his design inspiration and how his background has influenced his career.

Whether you’re new here or not, it’s clear that you have a keen eye for home interiors, which means you have probably noticed that at the heart of every home lays a beautiful handmade rug.
