EDITOR’S VOICE TCF CONTACTS EDITORIAL
Hello and welcome to the July issue of Tomorrow’s Contract Floors
As editor of TCF, it’s great to get out and about meeting industry professionals at trade events. I was lucky enough to attend Clerkenwell Design Week in May and it was fantastic to see so many of the showrooms and exhibitions buzzing with activity.
Flooring manufacturers pulled out all of the stops to attract the international design community into their events, workshops and presentations. There simply wasn’t enough time in the day to get around such a packed programme but as well as the informative talks that were on offer, I was able to sample Italian food, try my hand at making macramé and meditate in a virtual reality world. We feature a show review on page 40 where you can find out more.
A huge trend in workplace design right now is for open-plan spaces that encourage collaboration between staff. This is where designing with different flooring materials comes into its own, by mixing materials and textures its possible to create pathways and zones demarking separate areas.
In our Integrated Flooring feature, we hear from Interface whose Concept Design team blended a variety of their carpet tiles to create a vibrant urban- inspired floorspace that is driving creativity at Rolls Royce. We then shine the spotlight on Tarkett’s new UK headquarters in Kent where interior fitout specialists Peldon Rose combined Tarkett’s LVT and carpet tile ranges for an environmentally-friendly workspace that has a positive impact on its staff.
Also in this issue, we have a brimming section on Adhesives & Sealants as well as our regular features.
I hope you enjoy reading!
