My husband and I had grand plans to turn our unused attic into a
playroom for our almost 4 year old son, and our daughter that’s due this month.
It seemed overwhelming, but I knew FLOR tiles would make the biggest difference. First, we painted the walls yellow and painted the trim white. Then, to cover the 40+ year old linoleum tiles, we added Feelin’ Groovy FLOR tiles in Blue Jay, Teal, Orange, Pink, Yellow and Lime.
We put down the FLOR tiles this weekend - I’m 9 months pregnant and it was a pretty simple job! Our son was delighted when he saw the transformation, and we can’t wait for him and our soon-to-be-born baby daughter to enjoy their bright and colorful new playroom. We now have FLOR tiles on each and every level of our house!
Thanks FLOR, for making such a great colorful, fun, creative option available to us and our kids!
Sincerely,
Kelly, New York

I have known about FLOR for a while, but I never had an application for it until I set up my new studio. I am a painter, so my space does get messy. However, I hate having my feet on a cold hard floor during those long
stretches of creative time. I found the perfect solution in your cow-friendly design. I get all the comfort of carpet, but with a very forgiving print. I have already spilled some paint, but you cant see it! My cat also tried out the sturdiness of FLOR by barfing on it while it was 2 days old. Rinsed off without a problem.
I haven’t even used the FLOR stickers. The rubber backing adheres to the concrete floor perfectly. I even vacuumed!
Thanks for a stylish solution!

“Garden Close-Up”
Vanessa
Boulder, CO
Vanessa was inspired by a decorative piece of art when she designed “Garden Close Up”. This design captures her love of nature and passion for color, with big flowers that pop against a backdrop of green using FLOR’s Feelin’ Groovy. Vanessa describes her design aesthetic as mid-Century modern and is currently in the process of remodeling her home. As one of the winners, Vanessa plans to place her new FLOR rug in either her living room or home office to bring a bit of nature indoors.
“FLOR Sunrise”
Anne Marie
Los Angeles, CA
“FLOR Sunrise” was designed using different colors of Striped Poodle to mimic the inspiring shades found in a morning sunrise. As a communications editor and someone interested in graphic design, Anne Marie has a passion for retro, 50s-inspired design and doesn’t shy away from bold colors. She plans to showcase her new FLOR rug in her living room to add a ray of sunshine to her home.
“Off Kilter”
Tiffany
Virginia Beach, VA
Tiffany’s current obsession with all things tartan has come to life in “Off Kilter”. She used FLOR’s new Pop Tartan combined with accents of Take a Ribbing in red and Feelin’ Groovy in yellow. To add some texture, Tiffany threw in a strip of Shaggy Sheep for something different. An event planner by day, Tiffany has recently discovered the joys of interior design and is using her skills to spruce up her new home. Tiffany plans to accent her living room with her new, “plaid within a plaid” FLOR rug.

We needed a simple, modern yet durable entryway rug for our beach house. Sidekick in lime/green fit the bill perfectly. Not only is it dog friendly, but it keeps the sand and dirt from getting all over the house without showing any wear and tear whatsoever. I would highly recommend this rug for any high traffic area.
