Net Effect, Interface

This modular carpet is made from end-of-life fishing nets.

It’s one thing to be inspired by the ocean, but it’s another to try to preserve it. A joint collaboration between the Zoological Society of London and carpet manufacturer Interface, Net Effect is made from the nylon found in discarded fishing nets that are reclaimed locally. The collection of six modular carpet tiles comes in three 50-cm-square tiles (a neutral ground, a transition tile, and a textural accent). Interface.com
