How to Build Your Fliptile Modular Rug in 4 Simple Steps

Fliptile is a soft, stain-resistant carpet tile that clicks together with reusable stickers. Build your own rug tile by tile, colour by colour. Customisable, playful and made for grown-ups.

1. Define the Space

Start by identifying the area you want to define: a lounge nook, under a dining table, beside your bed, or even an entryway. Measure the space and decide how large your rug should be. With Fliptile, you're not limited to rectangles - hexagonal edges allow you to play with organic, asymmetrical, or graphic layouts.

2. Choose Your Colour Story

Fliptile comes in a curated range of contemporary colours - from earthy tones like Driftwood and Dune to bolder hues like Mustard and Envy.

  • Want a calming, sophisticated look? Try tonal layering with shades of grey and soft taupe.
  • Craving energy? Mix vibrant colours into geometric or zigzag motifs.
  • Prefer a minimalist feel? Use a single hue and let the shape of the tiles do the talking.

You can preview colour combinations on the Fliptile page before ordering.

3. Lay & Connect

Once you have your tiles, it’s time to lay them out. There’s no glue, no tools, and no commitment. You can start from the centre or a corner - it’s entirely up to you.

  • Use the Fliptile stickers to connect the tiles to each other (not the floor).
  • Trim the outer edges if you’re building flush to a wall or around furniture.
  • If you're laying the rug on a smooth surface like tiles or laminate, consider a non-slip underlay for extra grip.

4. Edit, Expand, Evolve

This is where Fliptile truly shines. Didn’t love the layout? Peel it up and try again. Moving house or redecorating? Reconfigure the rug in a new pattern or build it bigger with more tiles. The modular system means your rug evolves with your lifestyle - no waste, no fuss.

Fliptile proves that flooring doesn’t have to be boring - or permanent. It gives you the freedom to create something unique, practical, and full of personality. Whether you’re a design novice or a seasoned stylist, the process is as rewarding as the final result.

So go ahead - build a rug that’s as original as you are.
