FASHION AT WORK
Culture. Couture. Creativity. Fashion’s influence runs deep, especially in interiors.
From showrooms to flooring collections, fashion continues to shape the way we design. Our teams don’t just follow trends, they translate them.
GUCCI, GRASS, AND GROUNDING
Our Chicago showroom gets a refresh every year for Chicago Design Week. In 2022, we drew inspiration from a Gucci® runway show lined with prairie grass to spotlight new nature-inspired flooring designs.
Through a cohesive, biophilic-inspired showroom theme—Nature Works—we created our very own runway moment with a winding path that wended its way through an immersive, story-driven experience. Textures, sounds, scents, and visuals all played a role in the celebration of nature.
FROM ON DISPLAY TO ON THE FLOOR
Worn, distressed planks at Alexander McQueen’s Savage Beauty exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. That’s what inspired our first skinny plank carpet tile design.
The exhibit paired the weathered wood with romantic, feminine fashion. And that surprising mix of textures excited our designers enough that it became the blueprint for our innovative carpet tile format.
MADE FROM THEN, FOR NOW
Tailored, crisp, and sharp—that’s 1950s fashion. And it’s also our Dressed Lines™ carpet tile collection. Our designers saw mid-century looks having a moment, especially in streetwear.
Dressed Lines plays into this, with a fresh take on timeless designs. Think sophisticated, small-scale, and high-contrast patterns that showcase the versatility and drama of dress fabric.
