Carpeting…Day 4

Rick Armstrong called me over to the “L” Shaped House at about 10 am to approve the pattern he plans to use as they lay the carpet tiles in the basement. We laid out a few of the patterns shown on the Shaw Carpet website but pretty quickly decided to use a method they have used in other carpet tile installations. We are using two tiles from the Shaw Carpet … Philadelphia Commercial collection (Ad-Lib and Unscripted) in the Hall Meeting color and have arranged them in a pattern that is both ordered and random at the same time. The first photo shows Rick and Jimmy working together as they got underway laying tiles.

Carpet 30

The next photo shows the new carpet tiles spilling across the basement floor from the patio doors in the North wall. We elected to have Rick start at the doorway so that any carpet replacement required at the doors would involve full tiles.

I think a good word to describe the new basement carpet might be…Bold!
