ONE of Milliken’s most popular carpet tile collections – Tracing Landscapes – has been reinterpreted and relaunched with a fresh new palette of colours. The new colours include a subtle and on-trend range of blush pinks and peaches.
The use of pinks in an office environment is a response to changes in workplace design, where the office is starting to feel more like home.
Milliken asked colour expert Laura Perryman for her take on the colour choices and how they link to current topics and trends. Laura is a colour designer and forecaster with over 18 years of experience in CMF design across multiple industries. The author of The Colour Bible, Laura is interested in material and sensorial experiences of colour.
‘Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2024, ‘Peach Fuzz’, has focused attention on coral and peach. These colours are actually quite balanced in tone and are emerging almost as a new neutral. ‘Wild Orchard’ (one of the colours in the Tracing Landscapes collection) is perhaps closest in tone, and natural pastels are an important colour area in Tracing Landscapes that speak to this trend.’
Laura goes on to talk about two more of the pink hues from the collection: ‘Pinky corals and reds like ‘Dusky Evening’ and ‘Hidden Path’ will make spaces feel warmer and more nurturing.’
Tracing Landscape carpet tiles are Carbon Neutral, made from 100% regenerated ECONYL yarn and the cushion backing has 90% recycled content. The collection was created by Milliken’s in-house design team from the company’s UK base.
