Contract Magazine - July 2020 - 33
Amy Jaekel
Creative Director
Tarkett Hospitality
in North America
Can you describe the new collections from Tarkett?
Our design team consists of a range of artistic talents, and we draw from
our different styles and life experiences to create collections. Like most of our
collections, Marieke, designed by Ann Matthews, is grounded in art. Ann
experimented with techniques such as poured paint and sumi ink, creating
canvases and layers that combined for the collection.
One of your collections uses state-of-the-art digital dye technology.
Can you elaborate?
Digital Dye Injection (DDI) is a new product platform offered by Tarkett.
With this addition we can literally offer design at any price and meet any stylistic
needs. DDI may be new for Tarkett but it's not new to our teams. We have some
of the most knowledgeable and talented people, and we are excited to get
to offer it with the rest of our product line.
Color and texture are important parts of developing a new collection.
What's your thinking behind this?
It absolutely is and since we do have so many tools in our box, we really have
a lot of fun with it. When we start a collection, it usually develops from a stylistic
trend or artwork we've done. From there, we get to create patterns that bring
it to life. Each collection shows our designs and capabilities from Axminster, DDI,
and Tufted Broadloom to custom LVT. We can have free range to create with
any level of texture and two different yarn and color systems.
While working from home, what has inspired you that might find its way
into a future collection?
We are a super close creative team and have a great time working together,
so being at home and not all together every day was a bit of a bummer.
We ramped up our communication and have supported each other by sending
art postcards to each other. We all have a collection of eight postcards, each
in a different style. It's possible something may come of that.
Are there any books that you are reading or rereading this summer?
I actually love to read but have been on a hiatus. I have been focused on weaving,
stitching, and painting.
Like most of Tarkett's collections, Marieke, designed by
Ann Matthews, is grounded in
art. It is the result of experiments with techniques such as
poured paint and sumi ink, creating canvases and layers that
combined for the collection.
