Shaw Contract launched two new digital AI tools: Inspiration Curator and View In My Space. Both are designed to empower designers, specifiers, and end users with faster, smarter and more personalized flooring selection experiences.

Developed with a designer’s workflow in mind, these AI tools bring a new level of visualization, efficiency and intentionality to the specification process.

Inspiration Curator: From Vision to Reality

With the Inspiration Curator, users can upload any image—whether it's a mood board, an architectural photo or a branding reference—and instantly receive a curated palette of Shaw Contract flooring solutions that align with the image's aesthetic and mood. Designed to streamline decision-making and spark creative exploration, the tool helps users select materials based on color, texture, and emotional resonance, rather than just technical specs.

“Inspiration Curator brings the power of intuitive design to the specification process,” said Carrie Edwards Isaac, vice president of marketing at Shaw Contract. “It simplifies and accelerates product selection while promoting cohesive, brand-aligned environments that also support sustainable choices.”

With built-in visibility into certifications like Cradle to Cradle, low-VOC emissions and recycled content, the tool supports sustainable design from the start by minimizing waste, reducing misorders, and encouraging long-term, thoughtful installations.

View In My Space: See It Before You Specify

View In My Space offers real-time visualizations of Shaw Contract flooring—from rugs to tiles, multi-surface solutions and beyond—within the user’s actual space or in pre-selected commercial settings. This tool transforms how designers evaluate and select products, offering clear, immersive previews of flooring options to ensure both aesthetic and functional alignment.

With a few simple clicks, users can confidently assess how a product will look in real-world conditions, accelerating decisions while avoiding the trial-and-error of traditional sample-based planning.

Together, Inspiration Curator and View In My Space mark a new era of user-centered digital innovation at Shaw Contract, combining technology, sustainability and design intelligence to deliver smarter spaces for people and planet.
