With this, biophilic design has become more prevalent aiming to introduce calming, nature-inspired elements into a workplace. Flooring inspired by natural timber and stone aesthetics aligns well with the shift towards wellness-focused spaces. However, with concerns over rising noise levels and their impact on employee comfort and productivity, there's uncertainty over the suitability of hard flooring in office environments. In this blog, we're exploring whether luxury vinyl tile (LVT) is suitable for offices and outlines five key considerations to help you select the right LVT for your space.

Our current “throwaway” economy will continue to cause irreversible damage unless we are able to close the loop on material consumption. Moving towards a more circular future requires completely rewiring the linear systems of production and consumption that are harming the natural systems that support life. Alarmingly, global material extraction has surpassed 100 billion tonnes, more than three times as much than 50 years ago. Without much needed change this is set to rise by a further 60% by 2060[\[i\]](https://europeblog.milliken.com/tag/design#ref1). This blog details the actionable steps Milliken’s taking to advance the [circular economy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_economy) and mitigate climate change.
