For a long time, Carpet Patterns and Textures was specified as a background decision. Colour, pile height and budget were important but pattern/carpet texture were just surface decoration, not design tools. That assumption has changed.
Pattern and texture are now, more and more, creating space itself. Carpets are being used to define non-walled areas in hospitality interiors, open plan offices, large commercial areas to regulate visual scale in large plan designs and give a sense of touch to functional rooms that are otherwise becoming blurred.
Open plans demand subtle spatial indicators. Big installations require organization devoid of physical barriers. Flooring is required by mixed-use spaces so it may contribute to acoustic comfort and space clarity besides beauty.
To merge pattern and texture, different construction techniques are being utilized deliberately after their information or purpose in a space. Direct reaction to this move is recent additions to the MyFloor portfolio, on the principles of construction, and not decorative overlay.
The nearest expression of this inclination is observed in the circumstance that pattern is not only visible, but through building made real.
Pattern = Physical Structure in Carpet Patterns and Textures
The most visible (shift) is in the area where pattern is built into the fabric of the carpet as compared to being put on its surface.
Pattern exists physically when pattern is created through multi-layer loop construction. This texture, which you see, is the texture you feel, because pattern is effected in the variations of the height of loops, their density and form. In this approach, carpet texture is not supporting the pattern – it is the pattern.
In Allure there are several directions of patterns which represent the principle in the same logic of construction. Geometric ogee designs: geometric ogees designs were developed on centered loop variations, and create visible depth and rhythm to large scale installations. The geometry made physically offers a dimensional presence as opposed to a graphic flat reading.
tweed and mottled dots, distinctively; create variation in irregular loops on the surface and that is micro-scaling. It is constructed variation, rather than print texture attempting to be three-dimensional and can be seen even through the window.
Work is inspired by marble and stone featuring patterns that with an effect of organic fracture and tonal layering, make the variations possible both visually and physically with the help of multi-layer loop construction. The surface is made dynamic and non-flat.
The merit with such approach is that the loops construction is not bringing comfort under some other design. Its mechanism is; by it the pattern obtains spatial weight.
This dimensional aspect; fits where statement areas will be created where flooring will form a part of the design. Lobbies, foyers and areas that were intended to be differentiated either aesthetically or tactilely will be desirable to patterns that have physical presence and may be read in high traffic.
Woven Durability vs. Printed Flexibility in Carpet Patterns and Textures
The trend of functional patterning is not restricted to more recent approaches of constructions. It is also re-defining how the traditional carpet building processes are being characterized and applied in the present specifications.
The latter can be traced with the help of two methods; woven integration and digital printing. They both typically use cut-pile plush constructions, and offer pattern onto surfaces that have the appearance of homogeneity, but the mode of introducing pattern determines whether it is permanent or flexible and what its best use is.
Wilton when in its usual type would be woven into the weft of the carpet flooring india. The pattern is not woven out of the surface since it is a part of the fabric. This taste is favourable to designs of visual weight – floral scrolls, medallions, mandalas and structured geometrics – to be executed in richness of depth and colour. They are fitting – ceremonial/formal environments in which permanence and presence must co-exist.
Chromojet printing is different like that of Regalia. Pattern is printed on cut-pile base, forming a high density base on which graphic artwork is overprinted and permits detailed pattern as well as enormous colour palette to be used, and patterns to be customized to the project. This is particularly true of hospitality settings in which the spatial brief tends to be predominantly founded on custom design, branding or MIS requirements.
Together these strategies prove – pattern may be indelible; graphic or tactile – based on the way it is created.
Premium Modular Carpet Patterns and Textures
The idea of pattern is no longer confined to the permanent installations as a spatial tool. Carpet tile flooring is expected to deliver operational flexibility & design presence, challenging the long-held assumption they are compromise with aesthetics.
This has been changed in Nebulous. Its multi-level scrolling loop structure of construction creates the effect of a marble-like colour movement by variation of the surface in place of the graphic printing. Pattern is not only visible but also tactile with each colour variation having the profile of the texture. Nebulous, in a 60 x 60 cm format, and being the topmost specification of the tile category of MyFloor offers picture and material richness that is more typical of a wall-to-wall application. This premium luxury floor carpet tile is positioned for flexibility & aesthetics, without compromises. Good executive suites, boardrooms, and high-end residential areas where modularity is the means to support the planning requirements with texture and pattern being the means of conveying the design intent.
What This Reflects
Pattern and texture in fact are being practiced in space – defining space in open plans, working visual scale in large installations, creating tactile difference in areas of functionality.
This diversity – multi-layer loop, woven structure, digital printing, and premium carpet flooring, are questions designers now face. A more deliberate approach to how pattern and carpet texture function within space is the trend, not a particular motif/colour palette.
