Is pattern-phobia a thing? For what seems like years, many workplace designers have avoided the use of pattern, instead retreating to the safety of minimal finishes. Now, however, we are beginning to experience a shift. Interior designers are exploring pattern more and discovering new and exciting ways to use it.

From floor coverings to furnishing fabrics and wallcoverings to screening, we are seeing a strong and growing trend for pattern. Applied to commercial interiors, pattern can have a powerful and positive impact, particularly for the workplace. Read on to learn about the many different ways that pattern can be used to enhance workplace interiors.

Like silent architects, patterns are not just repetitive designs but powerful forces that can drive transformation, innovation and meaning across multiple areas of our lives.  Read on as we dive into the fascinating world of pattern, understanding how they shape everything, from the structure of nature to business, science, art and the very rhythms of our existence.

The use of pattern in architecture and design is experiencing a resurgence. From external architectural facades to interior furnishings and finishes, this revival has sparked new interest in the profound effects that patterns can have on the way we feel.  In this blog, we explore the fascinating relationship between patterns and our emotions and how, whether consciously or subconsciously, they can influence our psychological state.

The use of patterned interiors in commercial environments is experiencing a renaissance. Like a breath of fresh air, wallcoverings, furnishing fabrics, floor coverings and even fixtures and fittings are becoming more colourful and more creative. So, how has this come about and where is it going?

With March’s Neurodiversity Celebration Week behind us and Neurodiversity Awareness Month ahead of us in April, how far have we come in understanding the needs and optimising the opportunities for neurodivergent workers? As neurodiversity continues to become an ever-hotter topic for employers, it is heartening to see that interest is now reaching well beyond the company HR department.

Milliken’s installation of its Mash Up waste reducing carpet collection at one of its own material suppliers’ offices provides the perfect example of how this innovative initiative can quickly transform a space.

When the values of two enterprises come together to create something amazingly positive, it can be a truly wonderful thing.  Last year, Milliken and Fur Clemt, a community interest company local to its UK manufacturing plant in Wigan, did just that, finding common ground through a shared concern for waste reduction.
