While walking around in San Juan at Lake Atitlan, Guatemala, we noticed this Thiago Fashion’s mural ad painted on the wall. Parallel to it is a drawing of Jordan Nike sneakers. The colorful wall is in cerulean blue, with lines going across the bottom in pink, red, and yellow. While the other wall next to the door is in a mint green color, with contrasting red as the shoe color. We are so intrigued with the color combinations, it inspires this new material mood board with our red and blue plaid carpet.

We take one of our existing plaid carpet designs and recolored it to match the beautiful palette of this local street ad. The carpet design we use is our Tailor Shirt in a beautiful red and blue plaid pattern. The contrasting colors translate the modern color palette, while also using a familiar preexisting design. Just as the fashion store represents a history of traditions, the plaid has also been used for hundreds of years. Our quintessential plaid carpet design blends two matching colors perfect for a beautiful interior. The Tailor Shirt design is available in broadloom wall-to-wall carpets for hospitality, office, and multifamily interiors projects.

For our modern interior palette, the red and blue plaid carpet design acts as the backdrop. A mint upholstery by LBI Boyd Design Resource is purposefully paired with Seafoam, a blue vinyl wall covering also from them. Tropical Tooled by Barbarossa Leather in green adds a few earthy hues to the mood board. Lastly, Reclaimed Team Boatwood Shiplap Paneling by IndoTeak Design ties everything together with artistic and colorful wood paneling that translates the mural.

With our super easy recolor program, you can recolor any of our carpet designs, including the featured plaid carpet design. With endless color variations and adjustable scales, you can easily get the design you need. We have various options in broadloom, area rugs, and carpet tiles for your next commercial project. There are thousands of carpet patterns to choose from, including abstract, modern, and organic carpet designs.

Schedule an introduction with us

Sitting right next to Pompidou in Paris is Atelier Brancusi. This place is a reconstruction of the studio of renowned Romanian-born artist Constantin Brancusi. In the atelier, there are 137 sculptures, 87 bases, 41 drawings, two paintings, and more than 1600 grass photographic plates and prints by the artist.

Brancusi died in 1957, leaving behind a lot of his work in his studio, which consisted of 11 joined studios. The Romanian artist would break down walls to adjoin studios and create various environments to exhibit his work. He considered the relationship between sculptures and the space they occupied to be of crucial importance.

In 1997, the Atelier Brancusi as we know it today opened its doors on the esplanade of the Center Pompidou. So much of Brancusi’s work is on display at the atelier, giving you an idea of how much the artist put into the world. There are wood and plaster sculptures, bronze colonnades, animal shapes, and photographic studies. It is a beautiful and inspiring place to visit.

Inspired by the stone and natural textures of Brancusi’s work, we recolored the Stone Surface carpet. This is part of the nature collection by ege carpets, which takes inspiration from forests, deserts, and oceans. This light recolor of the carpet allows you to bring a textured palette to your next interior design project.

We created a material board that focuses on a textured palette with the atelier colors and the recolored carpet in mind. We included dark woods like Texas Mesquite 83000 and Artisanal Hardwoods. Keeping the dark brown theme, we also included different textured textiles like Artisan Textured Finishes by CopperSmith, Basketcase by Cortina Leathers, Lafayette Velvet by Opuzen, and Chesney by Valley Forge Fabrics. Additionally, we decided to bring some lighter tones of cream and white by adding Cove, True Terrazzo, Concrete Look Porcelain Paver, and Passion. To tie in the soft colors with the dark ones, we included mid-toned neutral paints like Crewel Tan by Sherwin-Williams and Mesa Tan by Dunn-Edwards Paints.
