NORTHWARD BOUND - GLACIER

  • 1 Project references

Overview

Northward Bound is Milliken’s latest carbon neutral carpet tile collection and the first European collection in its D/LUX series. The D/LUX series is so named because it’s all about creating a high performance luxurious carpet that uses less raw materials (thus reducing embodied carbon) with no compromise on aesthetics. This is achieved by carefully considering materials, innovating with fibre suppliers and pioneering use of yarn systems and tufting technology. Doing more with less is in harmony with Milliken’s ethos to “do good” and the company’s unswerving ethical approach to corporate social responsibility and sustainability.

The carpet tile collection is made up of three designs: SnowGlacier and Ice – inspired by a laid- back and understated Scandi aesthetic (a look that has driven several Milliken collections in recent years). A warm and cool neutral palette, varying scales across the three patterns, minimalist designs and soft flowing organic forms all help to generate a feeling of calm movement across the floor plane. Northward Bound was designed to stand alone or be combined with Milliken’s now classic and bestselling collections: Nordic Stories collection or, for more premium areas, the Arctic Survey collection.
