Taking its cues from the straw tatami mats popular in traditional Japanese homes, Tarkett’s modular flooring system offers a decidedly homey and flexible alternative to permanent broadloom carpets in office settings. Four sizes of modules can be linked together with a temporary adhesive that allows for easy release when it comes time for a new layout. For instance, one flooring square could be used to define a space for independent work, while an adjacent mat laid down in a contrasting pattern might distinguish a zone meant for collaboration. Durable cationic nylon fibre construction ensures that segments hold up to heavy traffic, even throughout multiple reconfigurations. In other words, bring on those office renos.
