Karndean Commercial refreshes its Knight Tile collection with biophilic aesthetic in mind.

Karndean Commercial’s latest design-led edit captures the essence of contemporary biophilic style.

This autumn, its popular Knight Tile range sees the launch of nine new ultra-realistic wood and stone designs, each featuring soothing earthy tones and a muted chalky finish.

As wellbeing continues to dominate the interiors market, advocating restorative spaces that reduce stress, support emotional and physical rejuvenation and enhance mental clarity, Karndean Commercial’s beautifully authentic appearing flooring and design prescience unerringly anticipates these market themes.

Similarly, the refreshed Knight Tile collection reflects the increasing demand for nature inspired design, meeting all the organic style, practicality and budget requirements of residential and commercial projects alike. The edited collection presents six new wood designs, including four also available in a herringbone option, and three stones.

Richard Allen, commercial sales director at Karndean Commercial said: “Over time design moves and designers adapt to these evolving markets. Our mission is, and always has been, to search the world for the most precious and exclusive materials, reimagining these into beautifully designed flooring that reflects and anticipates these changing tastes in interior style.

“In today’s market there's a growing desire for interiors that are comfortable and comforting, promoting a sense of serenity. For spaces that are both nurturing and practical, where functionality and organic aesthetics take equal precedence.

"Thus our latest Knight Tile trend edit aims to inspire designers to create restful biophilic spaces, providing much needed sensorial comfort.

“Exquisite timbers and rare samples of stone have inspired our latest designs, from the antique charm of reclaimed oak planks found in an old wind-powered sawmill in Amsterdam, the iconic character of America’s resilient acacia trees to the soft natural veining of riverbed marble and the understated elegance of classic limestone.”

Relevant for housebuild, build-to-rent and student accommodation projects as well as workplace and hospitality, Karndean Commercial’s new Knight Tile collection offers originality and outstanding versatility to create bespoke restorative interiors.

In a flexible gluedown format, the new Knight Tile designs feature a durable 2.0mm thickness and 0.3mm wear layer, R10 slip resistance and compatibility with underfloor heating.

Manufactured to ISO 14001 and ISO 9001 quality and environment management with up to 50% recycled material in the backing layers and holding gold certification for low VOC emissions, Knight Tile is the cost effective solution for demanding project specifications.

Every Karndean floor comes with an independently verified Environmental Product Declaration and 10 year guarantee in commercial settings.
