Mohawk Commercial is responding to a demand for versatility and flexibility in contract carpet tile by creating impressive options such as the Post Modern line. With strong architectural traits, these geometric designs are calibrated to incrementally increase in scale in each of the three patterns — beginning with Hyper-Reality (bottom right), progressing to Complexity (background), and then to Abstraction (top left). The tonal definition is achieved with all solution-dyed nylon. The tip-sheared loop construction accentuates the texture and adds dimension. |
