Sustainble floor?



The samples above have been collected from urbanliving.co.uk and crucialtrading.co.uk. Having completed a sustainble unit last year i think it is very imporatnt to use susatainable material wherever possible. The samples above are all made out of renewable resources.
1. Niagra Ochre
2. Tric Bronze
3. Linen and Wool
4. Moloko
5. Small Boucle - Classic Bronze
The two that would fit well into the design so far would be 4 or 5. However due to the materials used they would not be suitable in a pub, which is a real shame. As drink and food gets drop it would be extremely difficult to clean both of them . Also they way they are weaved food would be forever getting jammed and therefore go moldy with in the carpet. For this project it just isn't practical. I really want to use carpet as I feel it would be warmer and more inviting then tiles etc.
