The Alternative Blog
Art without walls: an Alternative experience at Britain’s first dedicated sculpture park. Read our exclusive interview with Amanda Peach from Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) and find out how the ‘Waterlake’ runner by Ella Doran for Alternative Flooring was created.
When Divine Savages wanted patterned carpet on their floors they turned to Alternative Flooring. It is time for a behind-the-scenes house tour and a chat with Jamie and Tom for some insider inspiration.
Discover the beauty of Mid-Century Modern design and get inspired by our Alternative Rug Stars, Keith and Mark AKA Mini Moderns.
Creative duo Mini Moderns choose their perfect rugs. Keith’s Rug Stars choice is a Wool Milkshake Coconut rug and Mark’s Rug Stars choice is a patterned Quirky B Honeycomb Moss rug designed with our bespoke Make Me A Rug service.
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.
Forget stars and stripes, florals and stripes make the perfect pairing this summer. Pattern play is all the rage on the catwalks walks with eye-popping florals mixing with stripes in every which way. It’s a winning fashion combination that is inspiring interiors too.
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.
Here at Alternative Flooring we are blushing with pride. Why? Well because we made the floral ‘alternative red carpet’ that The Queen walked along at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show Charity Gala Preview on Monday 22 May 2017.
Once the Christmas clutter is cleared, the next step is to think about how you can streamline your space. We all dream of building up, out or down, but there are other ways to unlock the space that you already have. What about supersizing all doors and adding a striped carpet runner like our Mr Blue Sky to give the illusion of space?
Alternative Flooring and Melin Tregwynt got together at The Campaign for Wool’s first ever Wool BnB. We are now thrilled to welcome Eifion Griffiths (the owner of Melin Tregwynt) to be our guest blogger talking all things cwtch.
