Dalton—As part of its 2022 Fall introductions, EF Contract, a division of Engineered Floors, debuted Elan and Esprit. According to the company, both patterns are inspired by the brilliance of energetic yarn styling and the use of nuanced color and boast a heavy emphasis on texture through the use of solution-dyed fiber techniques, tea-stain space dye and metallic accents as well as tip-sheering construction.
“EF Contract is thrilled to announce the introduction of Elan and Esprit which utilize the latest in fiber technology to create energetic patterns,” said Susan Curtis, director of product design and development, EF Contract. “The colorways and two patterns make this collection perfect for so many interior spaces, working with one another or on their own.”
Elan features small-scale tailored patterning, that is more defined and structured in its styling and shares the same color technique and tip-sheering construction as Esprit.
Esprit features large-scale patterning with a combination of geometric and natural forms that are broken apart and put back together creating a trick of the eye that lends an unexpected take on traditional geometric patterns, according to the company. Colors in this collection carry gentle color nuancing throughout, showing variations from light to dark.
Elan and Esprit are both available in 18 x 36 modular tiles in seven colorways.
