Happy New Year! It’s a great time to be in flooring industry, and I love that we always start the year with a bang—regional markets, retail conventions and The International Surface Event (TISE). Our team will be in full force at shows this month, discovering the industry’s innovations, gaining insight into strategies and learning about the market forces that are moving us in new directions.
You may have noticed a fresh look for Floor Trends this month. We’ve made a few changes to the magazine’s design and layout that feature a simple, elegant style, crisper graphics and photography. We have adjusted our approach to departments and features to help us tell stories more clearly and provide readers with more ways to dive into content. The credit for the new look goes to our talented art director, Rick Arvidson, who has his finger on the pulse of magazine design trends.
