Healthcare: Mannington Commercial and Pallas Textiles: Vivendi

Breaking down boundaries between manufacturers, the Vivendi collection for healthcare comprises flooring by Mannington and fabric by Pallas, both of which were designed by HOK. The heterogeneous resilient flooring resembles carpeting with its textural, organic, or geometric patterns, as opposed to the typical speckled floors seen in most healthcare settings. A winner of Best of NeoCon® Gold this year, the flooring features a wear-layer with an aluminum oxide topcoat for extra durability. The Pallas fabric can work independently of or together with the flooring, as it's been designed in coordinating--not matching--patterns and colors. The privacy curtain, composed of 100 percent polyester, appeals to the eye both inside and outside the patient zone. Both products were the result of patient-centric design research and a focus on the luxury trend in the healthcare sector.
