Flor tiles~ an interesting alternative to rugs and carpets

[tsophra]

this sounds very cool..for my kitchen and some other areas [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70402-thinking.gif[/img] modular rugs/carpet..you create your own design..they, also, have circles now






apparently the quality ranges from low-end (office carpet type feel) to higher end...so feel it before you buy it..and some have had issues with the adhesive..but overall rave reviews

Re: Flor tiles~ an interesting alternative to rugs and carpets

I was going to get some for my daughter's room (mi still haffi post pictures) dwl...

but so far they are nylon/synthetic or whatevah...and I wanted natural fibres for her due to allergies and all..so that idea got nixed, but it would have been great because if she spilled something on it...I could just replace the tile and waallah...

you know where you can guh look pan them..on montague, there is a DWR..design within reach..on the left hand side going towards the promenade..walk down past the supermarket..it's next to a wine store....they have samples there....and lots of other cool stuff if you like contemporary clean lines

thanks..they definitely didn't have those on the site when I visited...the coir would be good for my kitchen area..but lawks I wonder how rough it is on the feet..

anyway....I was looking for pink/sage green for her room, and I notice that the naturals are limited as far as color choices ..plus 25 per tile [img]/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

sometimes those kinds of material are soothing to the feet. i had a sisal mat in my living room one time and as soon as i got home and took off my shoes and i'd sit and rub my feet on the mat. it was almost like a massage.

NG..thats kinda what I was thinking..that "crisp" feeling could be nice [img]/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Gen..yes the Coir colours are kinda limited..i can see you would want something more colourful for your daughters room
