Abstract: A carpet is a metric space which is homeomorphic to the standard Sierpi'nski carpet in mathbbR2, or equivalently, in S2. A carpet is called thin if its Hausdorff dimension is <2. A metric space is called Q-Loewner if its Q-dimensional Hausdorff measure is Q-Ahlfors regular and if it satisfies a (1,Q)-Poincar'e inequality. As we will show, Q-Loewner planar metric spaces are always carpets, and admit quasisymmetric embeddings into the plane. In this paper, for every pair (Q,Q′), with 1<Q<Q′<2 we construct infinitely many pairwise quasi-symmetrically distinct Q-Loewner carpets X which admit explicit snowflake embeddings, f:XoS2, for which the image, f(X), admits an explicit description and is Q′-Ahlfors regular. In particular, these f are quasisymmetric embeddings. By a result of Tyson, the Hausdorff dimension of a Loewner space cannot be lowered by a quasisymmetric homeomorphism. By definition, this means that the carpets X and f(X) realize their conformal dimension. Each of images f(X) can be further uniformized via post composition with a quasisymmetric homeomorphism of S2, so as to yield a circle carpet and also a square carpet. Our Loewner carpets X are constructed via what we call an admissable quotiented inverse system. This mechanism extends the inverse limit construction for PI spaces given in cite{cheegerkleinerinverse}, which however, does not yield carpets. Loewner spaces are a particular subclass of PI spaces. They have strong rigidity properties which which do not hold for PI spaces in general.
