Interface has introduced a new luxury vinyl tile collection (LVT), Studio Set, providing customers with a greater variety of neutral and bright colors, which have been shown to boost creativity, collaboration, and mental stimulation in K-12 and higher education environments.

According to the International Association of Color Consultants - North America (IACC-NA), appropriate color design “is important in creating surroundings that are conducive to studying and in promoting physical and mental health.” In addition, research from the International Center for Leadership in Education found that specific colors combined with patterns influence the behaviour and performance of learners.

“The science behind the psychology of colors has proven that flooring design has a unique influence on creativity, concentration and the ability to multi-task in a variety of learning environments,” said Kari Pei, lead product designer. “Recognizing this, we developed Studio Set to provide our customers with a more versatile palette, allowing them to create stronger, more productive and collaborative atmospheres.”

Studio Set is designed to match Interface's Skinny Planks, coming together with a precise fit, allowing customers to pair hard and soft products together, and is engineered to compatible height with Interface's carpet tiles, providing the ability to effortlessly move from hard to soft flooring without transition strips. Created with Sound Choice proprietary backing (and certified by Quiet Mark), the collection also meets acoustical sound requirements for absorbing sound and reducing vertical sound transfer, ideal for education and other learning environments. Studio Set is recyclable through Interface's ReEntry program and is backed by Interface's 15-year commercial warranty.

Studio Set comes in 25cm x 1m planks in either a herringbone or ashlar installation and is available in 13 new color options.
