Shiver Me Timbers Poplar

Taking cues from our current love affair with repurposed materials, Walk the Plank makes proper reference to the eccentric qualities of old timbers with its deeply grooved grain and a bold range of values within each colorway. An inspired tweak on the common carpet tile, Walk the Plank is long and narrow in a 25cm x 1m tile. Evoking all the warmth and familiarity of an age-worn wooden floor, this clever shift in format is an instant classic.

nstalled, the look of Shiver Me Timbers creates a very similar effect, but in a lower profile construction without as much dimensionality. The two share a newly expanded line of 24 colors, with each color way varying from tile to tile, in a range of light to dark.

With the skinny plank format comes some new ideas about making pattern on the floor. The herringbone installation, for example, brings a distinctive scale and movement to the floor. The ashlar method is suddenly made elegant through longer, leaner lines. And the possibilities grow exponentially when mingled with 50cm x 50cm and 50cm x 1m tiles.
