Luxury vinyl flooring manufacturer Harvey Maria have launched the Walbrook Collection, inspired by Victorian encaustic tiles but thoroughly modern in design.
Harvey Maria’s new Walbrook Collection features original designs that celebrate the creative process, combining patterns from an historical context, whilst using contemporary manufacturing.
Six colourways have been carefully developed to form a stylish palette. All have been created with modern family living in mind, from rich heritage tones, which are wonderfully forgiving, to fresh natural hues, which bring warmth and personality to newer properties.
Harvey Maria’s Founder, Mark Findlay explains, “Walbrook was inspired by the classic beauty of Arts and Crafts encaustic floor tiles from the mid-19th Century. We have reimagined these iconic designs to complement the contemporary homes that we are building, renovating and living in today.”
The unique decorative pattern is clean in design, yet lends a rustic elegance to both contemporary and traditional interior styles. The collection includes three natural neutrals:
- Sherwin Slate -A clean and contemporary slate grey which works beautifully in kitchens. This design looks brilliant when paired with a neutral decor and next to darker kitchen units
- Avebury Stone – A muted, natural & warm stone hue. The lightest tone in the collection is extremely versatile, ideal for complementing existing interior schemes. Looks chic alongside natural plank & parquet wood flooring
- Peyton Blue – This heritage blue-grey is soft & stylish. Brings a fresh, contemporary uplift to bathrooms and laundry rooms. Looks lovely next to rustic wood accents & vintage furniture
Complemented by three rich heritage tones:
- Old Green – Deep, rich Victorian green contrasts with a paler tone, giving a dramatic look alongside darker walls or wood panelling. When paired with putty or softer blush tones, it makes for a very pretty alternative to chequerboard flooring
- Pastel Black – This mellow two-tone design makes a classic & elegant statement. An incredibly practical colourway, so ideal for high traffic areas such as entranceways, utility rooms & commercial projects
- Claystone – A rich, brownish blend of tones – inspired by the neo-gothic encaustic floor tiles of Victorian designer & architect AW Pugin. Traditionally used in hallways, this is definitely a colour for busy areas – think muddy paws & boots!
Harvey Maria’s skilled British design team has been creating luxury vinyl tiles since 1995. Their floors are incredibly durable and easy to maintain; they are completely waterproof, slip resistant and compatible with underfloor heating, which means that they work beautifully in busy homes and demanding commercial spaces alike.
The Walbrook Collection is perfect for kitchens and pantries, bathrooms, utility rooms and hallways. The resilient floor finish is easy to care for by sweeping or mopping with a neutral detergent; no harmful chemicals needed.
