Open Studio
Free your inner artist to create. Introducing the Open Studio collection, a tribute to artistic experimentation and time-honored techniques. The driving force behind this collection encourages a hands-on, artistic approach to design—an open space to create something new. Pulling from several multimedia techniques such as plaster and printing, art mediums have been translated into innovative carpet designs. With four patterns and 8 stunning colors, we invite you to take on the role of an artist and bring your design vision to life.
EXPLORE THE COLLECTION
CUES FROM THE MASTERS
Halftone draws from the delicate dot patterns used in screen printing to suggest imagery without fully defining it. Soft layers fade in and out, creating a gentle rhythm of tonal shifts—like a print in quiet focus, where the image is more felt than seen.
Overlay channels the layered process of screen printing, where each pass adds depth, texture, and imperfect alignment. Translucent forms overlap in a rhythmic grid, creating a pattern that feels both methodical and handmade—like ink settling into fabric, one screen at a time.
Primer takes its cue from an artist’s primed canvas—subtle, textured, and alive with potential. Layers of soft neutrals combine in a subtle, tonal wash to create a surface that feels open and atmospheric. ‘Primer’ is a blank slate brushed with just enough pigment to suggest depth, movement, and beg the question, ‘what’s next?’.
Inspired by a painter’s brushwork, bold strokes evoke a sense of movement as quick gestures meld with softer, organic shapes. Deliberate imperfections in the pattern—like a canvas left mid-process—evoke the spontaneity of mark-making in a modern, abstract painting.
MEET THE ARTIST
Todd Van Der Kruik
With Open Studio, I wanted to capture the creative energy of the studio—the mess, the movement, the quiet moments of inspiration. Each pattern draws from the tools and techniques I love: bold brushstrokes, layered screen prints, subtle textures that feel handmade. The result is a collection that feels expressive and modern, with a sense of process built into every design.
MULTICOLOR PALETTE
Open Studio’s neutral palette paves the way for easy pairing with more saturated tones. Available in six standard colorations, the Canvas Trace design adds pops of color to this collection. Inquire with your sales representative about other color modifications.
