This post is looking at all things purple as part of our ongoing colour focus series.

According to Coloro Purple is one of the top 5 colours to soothe anxiety and promote wellness, which is extremely important during this turbulent time. Colour has a direct impact on human behaviour and purple hues in particular can help calm, uplift and bring peace. In this post we explore ways to bring purple into your interior schemes, using our carpet tiles.

Installation Ideas

The below installations demonstrate ways to incorporate purple into your interior schemes using our osaka range. Mochi provides the perfect base for you to add colour through furniture and finishes or orchid can be used as an all-over to create a striking and sophisticated look.

Large open plan spaces are not only visually striking but they can also help to:

Improve communication and collaboration
Spark creative thinking
Provide easier layout changes

To ensure these factors are met and to get the most out of the large open space the interior needs to be carefully considered. Flooring is a big part of any interior and the correct use of it can be critical. So this blog post explores ways in which our carpet tiles can be used in a variety of ways to bring your open plan space together.

Use a highlight colour

Planks are used in the above installation using grey as a base but with a highlight colour carried throughout the room. This gives the room a sense of cohesion but with a hint of playfulness!

In the summer of 2019, the design team at Burmatex launched an updated version of the Tivoli range. The Tivoli collection features four designs (tivoli, online, multiline, mist) and is available in both carpet tiles and planks. This blog post will be looking at some ideas for layouts using this expansive collection.

For colour references, we have used colour stories from the latest Pantone View magazine, you can see about these colour pairings in our previous post here.

By using neutral grey tones in Tivoli and Tivoli mist, you can softly mark out walkways and zones.

Just as the rest of the U.K, the design and marketing teams for Burmatex have been living and working from home since the end of March. This lock down on normal life has given us some extra time to get out in nature and appreciate the smaller moments in life. From country walks to shadows on our home office walls, here is a compilation of some “at home inspiration” from our team…

We recently attended WGSNs x Coloros online live webinar looking at their predicted spring/summer 2022 colour trends in a post covid world. Colour has the power to directly impact human behaviour and emotions. During these turbulent times using colour as a tool to increase positivity is more important than ever.  In this trend, colour is used in a way to give hope, drive forward and energise whilst still remaining familiar and reassuring. In this blog post we explore the importance of each individual colour and the impact it may have within an interior space. Whether it is to reassure, calm,  give hope or to boost creativity and well-being. These colours can be found across our level loop and multi level loop ranges as shown in our installation ideas below.
