Simon Goff - Thursday, September 22, 2011

We have just ordered this lovely little collection, will be arriving in about 4 weeks, the quality is very good, 3 design and 15 colours, prices will be ace too

Check out the blurb and a couple of images to wet your appetite

By using worn looking and rugged Oriental carpet designs, reassembled in a new and sophisticated patchwork pattern, Vintage offers a modern feel with the look of an authentic Oriental classic. The range is woven on Wilton Jacquard looms using a combination of wool and cotton chenille and each of the three designs styles, Majestic, Multi and Mosaic have a number of colour options. 4 sizes to choose from.

 

 

New collection just dropped...........

Simon Goff - Monday, July 25, 2011
The new Floor_Story Collection for A/W 2011 has just arrived.

We will be carrying a few pieces in stock and each design can be bespoked to your own size (price dependent on size of course) but no more than 20 pieces will ever be made of each design so once they are gone they are gone.

Few taster pics, apologies for the rubbish photo's, too excited and wanted to get them up, better ones to follow







Impressive and creative work from Bolon

Simon Goff - Monday, April 04, 2011
Unique Swedish-Brazilian design partnership Creative, Brazilian chaos meets West Swedish spirit of enterprise. The Campana brothers and the Eklund sisters of Bolon, have entered into a unique partnership where Fernando & Humberto Campana have interpreted the new collection Artisan. This resulted in the exceptional concept for Stockholm Furniture Fair an Salone del Mobile in Milan.

Fernando Campana says, “A truly great collaboration has to start with an amazing gut feeling. I have had this from the get go with Bolon!”

The stand attracted a lot of attention with its over 7000 pieces that were mounted as a mosaic in true Campana sprit. A steady stream of visitors stopped by and was marvelled by the work of art.

Gieves & Hawkes

Simon Goff - Friday, January 14, 2011
FLOOR_STORY were approached by Gieves & Hawkes to transform the grand staircase in their Flagship Saville Row store.

We used the ultra modern Forma Carpet in hot pink from Vorwerk in Germany which works perfectly  on the old sweeping grand staircase and vintage stairrods.

Really refreshing to combine the old with the new.
