Bolon’s new flooring collection brings the harmony of the natural world to interior spaces. Discreet and versatile, the Elements range acts as a bridge between objects and their surroundings, demonstrating the positive effect that good design can have on our senses and wellbeing. The Elements collection reflects the tonality and textures of the natural environment. Its two warp threads have a grey and beige base, inspired by the warm and dusty melanges found in nature. These are woven into weft threads, with shades evoking elements such as linen, oak, ash, cork, birch, marble, walnut, flint, wool and silk. The flooring has an artisanal appearance and a tactility reminiscent of linen. “Elements is based around nature and is an example of quite classic design in the Scandinavian or East Asian sense. It doesn’t shout, but it still has presence. It’s all about the feeling of harmony that it gives you and its allusion to our design heritage,” exaplins Marie Eklund, CEO of Bolon. Annica Eklund, Bolon’s CCO, adds: “We want to help create spaces that give you a warm, welcoming feeling, but which still speak of good contemporary design. And that’s what the Elements collection and Bolon are really all about: the people who experience them.” Elements is based around a new type of yarn that Bolon’s R&D team has developed and the backing is made from up to 33% of recycled materials. The new pro led H-thread has a soft, welcoming aesthetic, but also ensures greater resilience to daily wear and tear, allowing the collection to withstand the high levels of foot traffic common in large spaces. Bolon commissioned Shanghai-based interdisciplinary design practice Neri & Hu to create an installation that communicates a contemporary, nature-inspired aesthetic and bridges Scandinavian and East Asian design traditions, based on the concept behind the Elements collection. The installation was showcased in February at Stockholm Furniture Fair 2018 and it will also be in show in April at Salone del Mobile 2018 in Milan. Neri & Hu said of the collaboration: “A tremendous amount of passion is woven into the Bolon fabric, with each thread carefully chosen. It was an inspiring collaboration that we will hopefully extend to future projects.” Elements launched during Stockholm Furniture Fair 2018. Each of the 10 designs will be available in rolls and in 50 x 50 tiles with acoustic backing as an option. Bolon is available in Australia and South East Asia exclusively through The Andrews Group.
