Workplace House, a new collaborative showroom in the heart of London’s Clerkenwell district, home to the city’s thriving architecture and design community, recently opened its doors with INVISTA Antron® carpet fibre keeping textile flooring from Christy Carpets ‘showroom ready’ on a daily basis.
Founded by Christy Carpets and Swedish office furniture brand, Kinnarps, in conjunction with a handful of carefully selected partners, Workplace House provides a place of inspiration and advice for designers involved in modern work spaces. Demonstrating how flooring, furniture, fixtures and technology can work in harmony, the showroom uses its three floors to present concepts in modern working.
Carpet tiles made with Antron® Lumena® carpet fibre welcome visitors to The Workplace House in the street-level reception and coffee bar. Chosen in pastel shades, Stressed Out (Hyper & Weary) and Relax (Soothed & Sublime) designs by Christy Carpets combine to demonstrate how flooring texture can work together to add interest. With the stain-resistance and soil-hiding capability of hardwearing Antron® Lumena® carpet fibre, these designs will also prove that the careful specification of fibre type ensures that carpet can withstand the demands of these intensive areas.
Stephan Hanke, INVISTA Antron® carpet fibre comments:
“Receptions and bar areas are two of the toughest areas for any floor, so the use of carpet tiles made with Antron® Lumena® carpet fibre is testament to the confidence of Christy Carpets that Antron® carpet fibre will not let it down by staining and showing early signs of wear. I cannot think of a better testament to the performance of Antron® Lumena® carpet fibre than in Christy Carpets’ very own showroom, particularly in the pastel colours selected.”
The use of Antron® Lumena® carpet fibre can be found throughout the showroom, featuring in Stressed Out Wound Up in the basement seminar room and in two colours of Straight and Narrow (Dark Side & Grace), used within the series of showcase rooms on the top floor. Providing workspaces with a carpet fibre designed to cope in busy commercial environments, Antron® Lumena® carpet fibre offers outstanding soil resistance and enduring colour.
Workplace House also demonstrates Antron® carpet fibre use in a range of products from carpet manufacturers across the globe, with Frontier broadloom carpet in Shades of Grey from Atlas featuring in the creative room. The almost cloud-like, free-form organic pattern of the carpet is made with Antron® LegacyTM carpet fibre for wear-resistance and soil-hiding. Antron® LegacyTM offers virtually unlimited styling flexibility with the widest range of fibre sizes, lustres and dyeabilities in the industry, allowing extraordinary designs such as Frontier to be created with the confidence of great commercial performance.
