Interface Showcases First LVT at Clerkenwell
Global modular flooring manufacturer, Interface, will be showcasing its first curated collection of luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) at Clerkenwell Design Week 2017.
Level Set™ has been developed with thoughtful consideration for design and performance best practices. The collection works seamlessly with Interface’s broad selection of carpet tiles. This allows architects and designers to explore new design possibilities and create rich textural experiences within spaces.
Visitors to the showroom will also be able to explore Interface’s latest global carpet tile collection, Global Change. The range offers designers a varied and expansive choice of colours, patterns, textures and formats to create nature inspired flooring concepts.
Throughout the show Interface will be exploring the concept of ‘Positive Spaces’ with a host of high profile speakers, interactive daily workshops and installations within the showroom.
Following on from the 2016 campaign which focused on how ‘beautiful thinking’ has dramatically changed the built environment, Positive Spaces sees Interface explore and demonstrate the genuine positive effect design can have on our lives.
