Introducing Modus: Exploring Nature’s Influence
Decay. Transform. Become. Nature’s force is undeniable. It is in Nature’s nature to thrive. To generate beauty where it’s so often overlooked.
Modus – the latest collection of modulyss carpet tiles – was inspired by these natural processes. The new designs draw on the visual patterns formed by the ageing and weathering of man-made materials and structures. By the relentlessness of the elements over time.
RUST, IVY, FADE, TRACE
The four pillars of the Modus collection represent various facets of decay and the beauty inherent in their impact.
Rust explores the interplay between objects and water, revealing unique textures and riveting colours. Ivy evokes the resilience and tenacity of the evergreen plant as it climbs and expands to discover new paths ahead. Fade captures the tranquil and elegant beauty of aging, embracing the inevitability of change. And Trace is the storyteller of time, revealing the mystery of nature’s fingerprints on the world.
CORRESPONDING COLOURS AND TEXTURES
Each of the four new designs in the Modus collection is available in 12 different hues. Rust and Fade share an identical colour palette and yarn structure, just as Ivy shares these features with the Trace collection.While not identical across all four collections, the contemporary, on-trend colour palettes do correspond – and are well-suited to unique combinations and applications. The yarn structure brings a rough, organic visual structure to the designs.
A standout feature of the Fade design is its exceptional flexibility in installation. The Fade tiles can be randomly laid and still lead to eye-catching results. Rust, Ivy and Trace are best suited to monolithic, ashlar, or brick patterning.
“Modus is my ode to the captivating aesthetic expedition of nature’s continuous evolution, inviting individuals to embrace the transformative touch of time within their spaces.”
-Joris Peutz, modulyss designer
