Interiors have gone to the dark side with furnishings, fabrics, ceramics and wallpapers robed in black. Amtico International adds a twist to the trend with Linear Metallic, four night-dark resilient floors that are shot through with copper, bronze, gold or silver. Random, delicate threads of metal catch the eye, projecting a depth and movement more common in a textile. Graphic yet subtle, Linear Metallic is far from glitzy with striated finishes that give the floor just a hint of industrialized glamour. Choose one pattern for streamlined monochromatic schemes or alternate patterns to create intriguing shaded effects. One minute, it's pure shine; the next, it's pure darkness. Four colors create streamlined sophistication: ¢ With the soft good looks of brushed aluminum, Linear Metallic Steel lends a silvery coolness to any room. The deep charcoal background anchors strands of silver and grey in varying strengths for multifaceted shimmer. Perfect for crisp monochromatic schemes, it also complements chrome-framed furniture. ¢ The darkest member of the family, Linear Metallic Jet adds richness and depth to its surroundings. Gold and mocha streaks create a glossy, light-enhancing backdrop for the curvy clean lines of modern furniture, especially those in intense shades. ¢ Both coppery and chocolaty, Linear Metallic Spice brings deepest browns bang up to date by adding glow and luster. The metallic highlight is a subtle ‚¬Ëœold gold' that modernizes and enhances polished interiors of dark wood and sumptuous leather. ¢ Linear Metallic Jewel acknowledges the trend for imperial purple, but takes a newer and more interesting direction in muted tones of mulberry and mauve. It adds a sense of femininity to any scheme, especially the oversized wallpapers and opulent silks and brocades of new romance looks.
