Mannington Commercial has recently launched its Swell Carpet Collection inspired by traditional weaving and knitting techniques. The Swell Collection, a modular carpet offering available in a plank format with four coordinating styles, including:
• Castline is a medium-scale pattern inspired by undulating lines created within large billowing sails on the waterways.
• Colorcast is a medium-scale pattern featuring textual patterning reenergizing the use of color and traditional stripes.
• Eventide is a small-scale texture pattern inspired by a calm and settled horizon.
• Hightide is a small-scale pattern showcasing light’s ability to transform a horizon with illuminating hues.
The collection was born from a member of the Mannington Design Studio during a serene moment along the Maine coastline. Here, nature’s raw beauty, like giant waves crashing against jagged rocks, combine with man-made materials, like a tangle of fishing lines, to create unexpected yet highly evocative scenes of beauty. Invisible on its own, a gust of wind is given shape when captured in the sails of a boat or rippling across the surface of the sea. The unseen billows become visible, transforming our surroundings into shifting shapes of undulating lines and stippled organic textures, giving way to the foundation for the the Swell Collection.
