Mannington Commercial’s refreshed Color Anchor collection of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) features 29 hues, including rich neutrals with multiple value steps, various shades of blue and green, and vivid primary colours. The updated line is available in two patterns, Groove and Stride. Groove is a small-scale, textile-inspired visual with non-directional crosshatching. Stride is a finely drawn linear pattern with soft line work. The visual can be run in a uniform direction or turned to create playful patterns. Both styles come in three sizes, including 6-inch by 36-inch planks, and 12-inch by 24-inch and 18-inch by 18-inch tiles. They can be mixed and matched in unlimited combinations to create endless pattern possibilities that work well for education and healthcare applications, says the company.
Tarkett’s Dynamic Edit modular carpet collection is inspired by how interior spaces continually evolve over time. The series celebrates this creative process with five patterns that allow designers to freely mix, match, add and edit their spaces. Each of the styles is available in 12 colourways. 18
