A carpet tile range that's totally down with the kids and their cool urban trends
With our heads buried in our smartphones 24/7 it can be easy to forget to look up. We fail to notice the incredible architecture, old and new, that forms the urban landscape around us so the clever cookies at Forbo have created a carpet tile to fill in the gap. If you're not going to look up then look down at these innovative, multi-height carpet tiles that have texture for days and attitude for weeks. A clever combination of loop and cut pile makes for a real modern mix up.
Heavily influenced by the geometric shapes and repeated patterns in modern building design Forbo Tessera Contour carpet tiles are the perfect way to celebrate natural and human elements in both large and small spaces; from huge offices to narrow corridors. Take your pick from a flexible palette of warm, luxurious colours that find the beauty in rust and the elegance in concrete.
