MIX BLONDE, MID & DARK TONES TOGETHER

TONAL MIX Wood flooring plays a key role in answering the desire to interact with natural materials in the home – materials that are familiar, grounding and soothing. For 2016 look for greater mixes of tonality across wood and wood-look floors incorporating blonde, mid and dark tones together.

MOSSY CARPET & RUGS...

COLOR FOCUS

From the catwalk to our homes, designers are inspired by landscapes, wildlife and the natural world which surrounds us. Innovation has brought new life to textures; chunky, nubby, felted and ultra deep pile carpets and rugs that mimic bark and moss.

“Mossy green will be a key color in 2016�

Human Nature Collection by Interface

A spectrum of mossy and earthy greens will be important throughout 2016, worked with heather tones and neutral shades for a contemporary feel.
