There are a lot of really interesting and fun projects that abound which bring the electronic world of the Web into our real world. Of them this one has to be one of the more cool ones out there.
The idea behind Carpet Art is to allow you to generate patterns made out of ASCII and/or images existing in the Internet and then have a carpet made from that generated code. The process usually takes about a month and use natural wool and/or linen to create the carpet.
Prices depend on the size of the weaved carpet with the standard size 5.5 square meter carpet ringing in at the cash register for approximately $2,841 USD (€1,999 Euros). Shipping costs will run you in the neighborhood of $400 USD outside of Europe and $140 USD in Europe.
