tones ranging from light stone colours through to
rich browns and of course, blues and greys.
It is the ﬂexibility of carpet that marks it as
an ideal base for ﬂooring within the retail sector.
With almost limitless ﬂexibility in all aesthetic
markers – pattern, texture and colour – carpet
can be as loud or as understated as the situation
requires and with durability and comfort beneﬁts
for shoppers too, it is difﬁcult to ﬁnd a ﬂoor
covering that can offer the same levels of in-situ
performance and creativity.
The beauty of carpet is that, within manufactur-
ing restraints, it can be speciﬁed in virtually any
colour or pattern imaginable making it an ideal
platform to deliver the ethos and goals of the
establishment at the earliest possible opportunity.
For example, hotels housed within period build-
ings can take a traditional design from Axminster
Carpets’ extensive archives and then adapt col-
ourways to lend a more modern edge. In fact the
Design Online service allows hotels to work with
existing archived designs, searching for particular
patterns and then playing with them in terms of
scale and repeat to see how they will work within
a given space.
Many hospitality venues have a distinct
corporate identity and are seeking to reﬂect this
in the ﬂoor and once again, carpet can step up
to the mark. With Axminster Carpets’ in-house
design team, it is possible to achieve a completely
bespoke design, using corporate logos and col-
ours, or for those looking for a muted approach
to corporate identity, logos and colours could be
worked into existing designs.
It is the ﬂexibility of carpet that marks it out as
a unique design tool for the hospitality environ-
ment, but quality and in-situ performance are
also high on the agenda as sub standard efforts
here will mean a quickly deteriorating interior
ambience. Woven axminsters are not only ﬂexible
in creativity, but also offer virtually unparalleled
levels of durability and quality and those from
Axminster Carpets use only the ﬁnest wool rich
yarns and manufacture to the tightest tolerances
possible ensuring that even the most frequented
of receptions will remain looking ﬁrst class for
years to come.
