This project consisted of a three month installation across five storeys at the University of Leeds, School of Fine Arts on behalf of Sewell Construction. S&D Flooring were very fortunate to be a part of a fantastic project that allowed the S&D Flooring Boys in Blue to install a wide range of contemporary flooring products to create many stylish and functional areas.
Ever wondered what a renovated Art School looks like?
With over 1,200 square meters of flooring, Luxury Vinyl Tiles, Carpets, Barrier Mattings, Adhesives and Primer S&D Flooring has helped breathe new life into this historic building situated in the heart of Leeds. It’s many corridors and art studios feature a bright and open space fitted with a simple, yet, contemporary 2 mm thickness Forbo Eternal (Mercury) and Surestep Star (Mercury). The contemporary tones offer hints of grey and a unique aesthetic. Surestep Star offers a brighter visual with holographic particles colour matched to the terazzo or natural base colour of each item.
FLOORING FACT!
The Forbo Eternal ranges is a high quality heterogeneous sheet vinyl floor covering that fits all general purpose needs in various segments and applications.
Whereas the School’s more quieter small group study and lecture areas feature a range of stylish carpet tiles from the Milliken Nordic Stories Range. The Nordic Stories range brings Scandinavian-influenced color and texture to the floor plane, paying homage to a series of diverse countries that have collectively helped define contemporary design culture. Across the School of Fine Arts five floors S&D Flooring have installed Hidden Plains Ash Blanket HDP119-27 and Tectonic Dark Dansk TTC79-133 Carpet Tiles.
Nordic Stories is inspired by the textural landscape, geological extremes, folklore and modern culture of the Northern Hemisphere. Muted natural tones, black volcanic rock, deep blue lakes, rich golden moss, graphic landforms and bold architecture. – Milliken Carpets
