Free Art @ Forbo Flooring Showroom


24th - 26th May 2011, London
As you are wandering around Clerkenwell Design Week - Look down!! You will notice our pavement graphics featuring amazing art by a wide range of artists and designers.

Come to the Forbo Flooring showroom (79 St Johns Street, EC1M) during Clerkenwell Design Week and choose your favourite piece of art to take away with you!

The art is printed onto Floorink - a pioneering new way to bring your floors to life; combining the endless design possibilities of digital printing with a hard wearing contract vinyl product, with all the usual features you'd expect from a Forbo floor, such as a 10 year wear layer guarantee and non-slip properties to make it unique in the market. Floorink is available in 2m and 4m widths which can be fitted together so your image fills the whole floor area.

Perfect for any flooring project, whether it be in a residential or commercial environment, you'll bring a completely new dimension to your space.

Floorink offers unlimited possibilities for specifiers, contractors and designers looking for something different, to create unique and inspiring flooring designs using illustrations, high-resolution photography, maps or abstract designs. Your own photographs, designs or branding can be used to create your printed to order vinyl cushion floor, to fit any size floor space. If you have an idea but don't have a suitable image, the Printed Space team will source one for you, or choose a design or mapping data from their licensed image bank.
