Discovery™ marks the beginning of a new design direction for Milliken Contract. It is about the convergence of texture and digital colour placement. The pattern is integrated into the structure, so it reads as one. They are not separate elements but are inextricably linked. Pattern emerges through texture and texture through pattern to create an unexpected, complex new surface.
Discovery comprises six patterns. GRAPHIA, LITHO, and FUSIONE focus on textures where the surface has been affected by change over time, such as weathered tree bark. LINEA and RATIO take their inspiration from the simplicity of authentic materials, such as linen and silk. DUE represents classic, timeless design and three dimensional textiles with woven and coiled structures.
The Foreign Intrigue™ Collection also uses Milliken's new Convergence technology to create a collection of seven coordinated designs that combine the layering of pattern and texture. Inspired by European architecture, particularly the spires and bridges over the rivers in the city of Prague, Foreign Intrigue won a Best of NeoCon Silver Award at NeoCon 2007.
