Take a Walk

“Cities should be built in the countryside,” a Belle Époque writer once joked. What if, instead, we brought the woodland to the office? This is Balsan’s objective with its Take a Walk carpet tiles, which adorn workspaces with the hues of the undergrowth: the browns of soil and bark, variations of green, the shades of autumnal leaves, and the greys of rocks or certain plants. But it’s not just the colours that count! The distinctive texture of the Take a Walk office carpet tile evokes forest trails sculpted over the seasons by ramblers’ footsteps. The eye appears to detect flecks of moss, layers of leaves and fragments of branches... The interplay of light and shadow characteristic of the undergrowth further accentuates this organic, irregular effect. #Moods2024 brings a soft, gentle breath of fresh air to the collection with 8 new pastel shades reminiscent of early spring mornings. As the first plants begin to bloom again, the colours of woodland wildflowers and tender leaves appear through a gauzy veil of frost or a light morning mist. The eco-friendly Take a Walk carpet tiles feature 100% recycled and recyclable Econyl® piece-dyed yarn for a reduced environmental impact. They are available in 20 colours and can be laid monochromatically for a soothing effect or in an array of shades to energise the space and play with the hues of outdoor gardens. The 650 g/m2 tufting is lined with BBack backing as standard to absorb unwanted noise, such as high heels, scraping chairs, dropped items, and so on.
