Government House and Royal Alberta Museum

Demanding installation prior to Queen Elizabeth’s visit to this venue. This was a bordered and balanced double-glue installation of custom wool (Wilton) carpet with heat seamed tufted wool borders over durafit 500 commercial pad. Here, Mike is sealing the seam edges with hot melt glue prior to attaching them to the field.
