London College of Fashion recently refurbished its High Holborn building, and opted for the Scarlet Oak from design flooring specialist, Moduleo.
It was crucial the flooring specified was durable, stylish and safe, as well as flexible for the students and staff who utilise the campus daily.
With this in mind, the designers on the project opted for luxury vinyl flooring from Moduleo for the Student’s Union café and bar, as a result of its advanced strength, slip-resistant rating of R10, and realistic wood-effect appearance.
Colin Stroud, director at Interior Precision Limited, who completed the refurbishment, comments: “Moduleo is a well-known name within the industry, and is renowned for its cost-effective, yet on-trend products – which were imperative for this project.
“With the flooring being laid in one of the best fashion schools in the world, style was obviously key, along with durability and scuff and stain-resistance, as a result of the area experiencing such high levels of footfall.”
As a constituent college of the University of the Arts London, London College of Fashion is a global leader in its sector, and has educated a number of notable designers in the fashion industry.
David Bigland, managing director of Moduleo UK and Eire, explains: “For our products to be chosen for such a high-profile project is just fantastic, and really showcases the benefits of luxury vinyl flooring for both the hospitality and education sectors.
“The grey Scarlet Oak the designers opted for provides an on-trend and versatile finish, which perfectly complements the overall décor and will last for years to come.”
Moduleo’s Impress collection features registered emboss and provides the ultimate in realistic and nature-inspired design, but with the added benefits of luxury vinyl such as increased durability, excellent heat and sound-insulation, and an easy-to-clean finish. Impress features five wood designs with 22 colour options, in both dryback and click.
Colin concludes: “Both the team at Interior Precision and the client at the university have been thoroughly impressed with both the performance and finish of the product. We would absolutely use Moduleo for future projects of this nature.”
