Amtico explores calm and connection with ‘The Amtico Retreat’ at Clerkenwell Design Week
A
mtico returns to Clerkenwell Design Week in 2026 with The Amtico Retreat, marking its fi rst appearance at the festival in seven years. Taking over Paxton Locher House, the British fl ooring designer and manufacturer presents a space designed to offer a more considered pace within one of the industry’s most high-energy design events.
Clerkenwell Design Week is known for its energy,
with installations, talks and experiences unfolding across the district. Rather than stepping away from that intensity, Amtico reinterprets it – creating an environment that balances activity with moments of pause, allowing visitors to slow down, reset and engage more meaningfully, in a way that suits them.
The concept is underpinned by Amtico’s guiding theme for Clerkenwell Design Week – where beautiful spaces grow through collaboration, creativity and choice – brought to life through a series of interconnected
Inside, the experience unfolds through a series of interconnected spaces that bring together
Amtico’s core themes of
collaboration, creativity and choice. The Amtico in-house design team will create sector-focused displays styled to refl ect real commercial environments across workplace, retail and hospitality.
These life-sized,
spaces and experiences. It centres on creating a calm, open and welcoming environment that works for a wide range of needs, recognising that not everyone engages with or experiences spaces in the same way. From the moment of arrival, the layout of Paxton Locher House guides visitors through a more intuitive journey, encouraging them to stop, interact and spend time within the space rather than moving quickly through it.
moodboard-style compositions combine fl ooring with furniture, lighting and material palettes, demonstrating how pattern, colour and texture come together within a scheme. A more hands-on approach will run throughout the three days, inviting visitors to engage directly with materials. A collaborative luxury vinyl tile (LVT) display will evolve over the course of the event, allowing visitors to reposition individual LVT elements and explore how subtle changes in colour, wood or stone can transform the overall feel of a design in real time.
