Celebrate Earth Day And Go GREEN with FLOR’s 2015 Eco-Friendly Carpet Tiles Design Challenge

April 20, 2015 by Melissa Chapman Leave a Comment

I am obsessed with design. In fact my For the home Board on Pinterest is one of my favorite virtual spaces on the planet. I love seeking out alternative spaces and tips to redecorate and make a space my own. This is why I am pretty excited that FLOR, manufacturer and marketer of eco-friendly carpet tiles has invited me (and consumers) to participate in their FLOR Design Challenge 2015, which is a creative competition being held at 11 FLOR stores, including their SOHO store located at 142 Wooster Street in New York City, where one grand prize winner will see their original rug design included in a future FLOR line.

Tomorrow on April 21 from 5-8 PM FLOR is inviting customers to visit their SOHO store  to assemble a small-scale version of a FLOR rug using 30 sample-sized carpet tiles. For the competition, FLOR will have more than 400 sample tiles available for consumers to work with and design their own unique entry.

Part of what I LOVE about FLOR is that their tiles allow you to truly create a space that is uniquely yours- one which reflects your personality and home decor aesthetic. With FLOR, everyone can be a designer, and  that’s what’s fun about the product. And of course their eco-friendly footprint makes them a perfect reason to incorporate if you are redesigning a child’s play room, your kid’s bedroom or even your kitchen!
