The Curran Story
In 1990, Jeff Curran began sharing curated home goods from around the world with family and friends through a simple flier that showcased his latest finds. Circulation of Jeff’s flier grew by word-of-mouth, eventually prompting the creation of “Curran” in 1994, a curated catalog that became a go-to for the design community.
Roots in Seattle and Europe
As the catalog’s popularity grew and the Seattle region experienced a rapid tech boom, Jeff launched sisalcarpet.com in 1998 to showcase natural floor coverings. His wife, Barbara—a Swiss national with Fortune 500 experience—joined in 2004, bringing a global perspective and strengthening the company’s European connections. In 2011, we opened a flooring design studio in Seattle to strengthen our relationship with the Northwest design community.
We’re proud of our history—and even more excited about where we’re going.
Today, Curran is a global online source for high-end custom rugs and carpets, serving the design, trade, and hospitality communities—as well as discerning consumers. We curate and develop flooring solutions emphasizing better-best quality, design, sustainability, and innovation. Our exclusive partnerships with award-winning European carpet manufacturers underscore our shared values.
We look forward to continuing to grow, serving as a resource and product development leader for tastemakers seeking custom, high-quality flooring solutions.
