Where Color Lives Color lives between darkness and light, it's origins stemming from the elements — water, air, fire and earth. Over time, color evolved with the development of pigments from natural elements, including minerals, plants and insects. These early expressions inspired Origin of Color, a collection of carpet tiles that brings history to life.

Choose from three styles rooted in the history of color: Symbolic, Convey, and Expression.
