A Winter’s Tale

How to make your home Christmassy… Tis the season for dressing up our homes. We asked a few of our Alternative friends for their festive interior tips and how they plan to spread some holiday cheer indoors.

MAGNIFICENT DESIGN

View the wonderful work of two of our creative collaborators Margo Selby and Louisa Knapp at the ‘Magnificent Design’ exhibition at The Museum of Carpet.

Woolability – live naturally and choose wool carpets

Flooring is where wool excels. Let’s spin some of the benefits of wool carpets in the home. Practically speaking wool is resilient, stain resistant, flame-retardant, a natural insulator and as a soundproofer brings much welcomed peace and quiet to interiors.

Earn Your Designer Stripes with Margo Selby

We have artists and their stripes with Bridget Riley, the fashionable Paul Smith barcode and now we have designer stripes for interiors, beautifully crafted carpets by woven textile designer Margo Selby for Alternative Flooring. The perfect striped wool carpet choice for stairs, rugs, runners and wall-to-wall flooring.

In the making with Margo Selby

From seaside to ticking, stripes never really go out of style. The new Margo Selby Stripes for Alternative Flooring take this classic design staple in fresh directions. We talk to one of our favourite collaborators, the award-winning woven textile designer Margo Selby about her latest collection for Alternative Flooring.

Discover the coolest carpet collaborations

Lorna Haigh, head of creative and marketing at Alternative Flooring is making carpet cool. She has scouted some of the UK’s best designers who have added great British pattern to the award-winning Quirky B collection.

CELEBRATE Great British Pattern

It’s time to celebrate the Queen’s 90th birthday! It’s also time to shout about great British design and our nation’s love of pattern.

Christmas Collage

In the lead up to Christmas, this winter we need some cosy colour and pattern on the chilly, grey days to warm our homes, lift our spirits and have some fun.
