			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gone are the days when coir (coconut husk) <a title="doormatsdelivered.com" href="http://www.doormatsdelivered.com/product.aspx/52/Coir_Matting_23mm" target="_blank"><strong>matting</strong></a> was the preserve of matronly households and stamp collector types.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-470" href="http://www.doormatsandflooring.com/2009/coirs-just-too-cool-these-days%e2%80%a6/hippomat/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-470" title="hippomat" src="http://www.doormatsandflooring.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/hippomat.jpg" alt="hippomat" width="600" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>You can be assured that you won’t need to be putting leather elbow patches on Norwegian knit jumpers in order to pass of this little collection of cutesy <a title="doormatsdelivered.com" href="http://www.doormatsdelivered.com/product.aspx/52/Coir_Matting_23mm" target="_blank">coir doormats</a>.</p>
<p>Keeping it natural, designer Ed Annink based these hippos and hares <a title="doormatsdelivered.com" href="http://www.doormatsdelivered.com/product.aspx/52/Coir_Matting_23mm" target="_blank"><strong>doormats</strong></a> on a 1920s pictogram by modernist artist and designer Gerd Arntz, and has had them constructed to high standards to ensure they can keep up with the wear and tear caused by busy households.</p>
<p>The hare <strong>doormat</strong> reaches an impressive 195 x 90cm and costs <a title="Hare Mat" href="http://www.dutchbydesign.com/products-Droog-Hare-Mat_137.01.htm" target="_blank">£72.50</a>, whereas you’ll be able to pick up the hippo <strong>mat</strong> (the only hippo you’ll ever be able to lift!) for <a title="Hippo Mat" href="http://www.dutchbydesign.com/products-Droog-Hippo-Mat_137.02.htm" target="_blank">55 quid</a> (141 x 68cm). Pretty perfect if you’ve been wallowing in the mud all day!</p>
<p>If you’re looking for something a little less gimmicky, a bog standard coir entrance <a title="doormatsdelivered.com" href="http://www.doormatsdelivered.com/product.aspx/52/Coir_Matting_23mm" target="_blank"><strong>mat</strong></a> for your doorway that makes a simple yet stylish statement could be just what you need.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-471" href="http://www.doormatsandflooring.com/2009/coirs-just-too-cool-these-days%e2%80%a6/haremat/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-471" title="haremat" src="http://www.doormatsandflooring.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/haremat.jpg" alt="haremat" width="600" height="450" /></a>Fantastic at dirt-trapping, those clever natural fibres absorb moisture incredibly well. You can clean them by giving it a bit of a shake outside, or your vacuum cleaner will be able to do a good job instead.</p>
<p>Grab a <a title="Coir mat" href="http://www.doormatsdelivered.com/product.aspx/52/Coir_Matting_23mm" target="_blank"><strong>stylishly sedate coir mat</strong> here</a>, £25.99 for 120 x 60cm.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a really striking feature <a title="ukflooringonline.com" href="http://www.ukflooringonline.com/" target="_blank"><strong>floor</strong></a> piece for any home, and would equally look the part in almost any room.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-466" href="http://www.doormatsandflooring.com/2009/patchwork-perfect-rugs/zebre-rug/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-466" title="zebre-rug" src="http://www.doormatsandflooring.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/zebre-rug.jpg" alt="zebre-rug" width="400" height="337" /></a>The contemporary circular patchwork construction of the finest quality cowhides is handfinished in Argentina, and come in a range of options.</p>
<p>From £160 for the 100cm diameter version, you could also choose to upgrade to 120cm or opt for the addition of a non-slip backing if you fancy too.</p>
<p>The handmade zebra print <a title="nicerug.co.uk" href="http://www.nicerug.co.uk/" target="_blank"><strong>rugs</strong></a> are each unique, with the skins printed and then sewn from four quarters. It’s possible to have bespoke sizes made too, all you need to do is <a title="Zebra cowhide rug" href="http://www.home-furnishing-direct.co.uk/patchwork-cowhide-circular-zebra-p-113.html" target="_blank">ask</a>!</p>
<p>We think it makes for a pretty dramatic entrance, but realise it’d be a nightmare to keep clean.</p>
<p>If clean hallways, an ethically friendly approach and a smaller budget are bigger priorities for you though, then we’d recommend this <a title="Leopard skin Coir doormat" href="http://www.doormatsdelivered.com/product.aspx/83/Leopard_Coir_Mat" target="_blank"><strong>leopard print coir entrance mat</strong></a> instead.</p>
