Ahead of our BIG presentation to Penson, I called up Interface a company specialising in commercial carpet tiles to see if they would allow a student to drop in and have a wonder around. I had a wonderful welcome from Veronica Kingsley who showed me around the offices and very kindly talked me through the samples. Veronica is passionate about design and even more passionate about her job – I found her inspirational. Very conveniently she was also the client manager for Penson and knew Anna from Penson, the designer on the LCC project. The company is focused on Green design and often hosts speakers and networking events focused on Green topics. I had absolutely no idea carpet tiles could look so good in a commercial space. Not only are the Interface offices fantastic but the floors are all carpeted with a range of different flooring solutions. I snapped a few shots for research purposes and left with a bag of goodies, including a heavy load of samples for the project.
