Durkan Unveils Tranquil Trails: A Journey Through Global Textiles
Dalton, Ga. December 5, 2024 — Durkan, the hospitality brand for Mohawk Group, recently introduced the Tranquil Trails collection. Inspired by the rich tapestry of global textile traditions, Tranquil Trails offers a range of captivating carpet tile and broadloom designs that celebrate the beauty and diversity of cultural heritage.
A Tapestry of Global Inspiration
Tranquil Trails features twelve stunning designs in Durkan’s Definity construction that pay homage to the artistry and craftsmanship of cultures across Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. Large-scale interpretations of traditional motifs are abstracted and layered, incorporating softened, organic forms and gentle washes of color. The result is an engaging palimpsest effect, in which traces of the past and present merge within the surface of each incredible design.
A Versatile Collection for Hospitality Spaces
From luxurious broadloom to durable carpet tile, this collection provides an abundance of options for creating stunning and functional hospitality spaces. Four broadloom styles and one carpet plank style utilize Pattern Perfect technology to create beautifully textured, artistic designs to suit different applications and budgets. PDI styles in plank, tile, and broadloom play with color and texture to bring a fresh lens to traditional designs. Three tufted broadloom styles offer detailed, tonal patterns that incorporate cultural motifs in a soothing yet sophisticated way.
A Harmonious Blend of Style and Sustainability
Tranquil Trails prioritizes sustainability and well-being. The collection is manufactured using eco-friendly materials and processes, minimizing environmental impact. It goes Beyond Carbon Neutral and is certified with EPD, HPD, and Declare labels. Tranquil Trails also contributes to a healthier indoor environment by improving air quality, reducing noise, and enhancing comfort.
“In our fast-paced world, we often lose sight of our shared humanity. By combining traditional patterns and modern technology, we can create beautiful and inspiring textiles that bridge cultural divides and celebrate our shared heritage,” said Yelena Rodina, senior designer for Durkan.
