Patcraft’s Textural
Perception
BUILDING INTERIORS – CARPE
Patcraft
Textural Perception combines sophisticated all-over texture with an easy-to-coordinate color palette for seamless design within education spaces. Available in two 18x36 styles and a coordinating 9x36 plank, the collection offers dual-tone colorways from neutrals to brights. The three styles, Static Noise, Linear Glitch and Contour Fragment are offered in 12 colors for flexible design with a sensory appeal. Static Noise is available in a 9x36 plank and offers an all-over, small scale pattern, and Contour Fragment is a medium scale distressed texture. Linear Glitch is a pattern that plays with positive and negative space by inverting color and pattern to provide a color blocking effect across the floor.

New Composition
BUILDING INTERIORS – CARPET
Mannington Commercial
New Composition transforms flooring design into artistic play, crafting harmonious spaces that are engaging, creative and warm. The collection of broadloom and 24”x24” carpet tile features styles with the simple forms
that Kandinsky favored—lines, squares, triangles—delicately layered and expressed
in neutrals, brights and deeper jewel tones. Designers can use the collection like an artist approaches the canvas, arranging styles and colors to compose a harmonious environment. The collection features three coordinating styles. Sublime State creates peacefulness
in the visual play of shifting forms. Trance End provides dynamic detail with triangles arranged among delicate scaffolding. And Inner Share is a linear style that brings a calming sense of directional movement.

Discovery
BUILDING INTERIORS – FLOORINGS (COLLECTION)
Tarkett
One in seven people worldwide is estimated
to have a neurodiverse condition such as ADHD, autism, dyspraxia, dyslexia or Tourette’s syndrome. For the development of its Discovery collection of coordinating soft-surface and resilient flooring, Tarkett explored how interior design and product selection in education environments can impact thinking, behavior, engagement, social awareness, and interactive experiences. With intention grounded in research, the company’s designers created flooring that both soothes and engages
the senses so that every person, whether neurotypical or neurodiverse, experiences a learning environment that helps them flourish. In addition to its contribution to engaging design, the collection includes several proprietary technologies that contribute to a healthier indoor environment and a healthier planet.
