Carpet company, FLOR, has licensed designs from the great Alexander Girard to create a bold and colorful new line of carpet squares. Girard designed textiles for Herman Miller, and created Quatrefoil, one of my all-time favorites, for Maharam.
The bold look of Girard’s graphic designs can be mixed and matched with FLOR’s other lines. to create your own, individual look. It’s a great product for a kitchen (above) because it’s so easy to clean, as I can personally testify. I have FLOR carpet in both my office and very snowy (4 more inches last night - grrrrr) side entrance. You just pick up a square and give it a scrub.
The new line can be viewed on FLOR’s site, but it’s not yet available. It will be officially unveiled later this Spring.
