by Ann Withanee — June 24, 2011—Montage and Mosaic, the two newest designs of J+J/Invision’s Paper Craft collection, feature patterns that exemplify the art of paper craftsmanship. Including Mach, Mach Trace, Pulp, and Shred, and now Montage and Mosaic, the Paper Craft collection was created to inspire creativity. This grouping of products provides the flexibility to easily mix up patterns, texture and color to define commercial spaces while achieving an original design.

The new patterns, part of the Paper Craft collection, were displayed at the J+J/Invision showroom in The Merchandise Mart, Chicago, during NeoCon World’s Trade Fair.

Montage is a large-scale pattern inspired by the visual effect achieved when colorful strips of paper are woven together, cut up, and imaginatively assembled together again. During manufacturing each tile is cut from a giant pattern making each one unique from the other. When installed, a new pattern is created on the floor as these exclusive tiles are jumbled up and put back together again in an interior space. Montage offers both horizontal and diagonal qualities that can easily install to numerous specifications, notes the company.

Mosaic offers a more subtle and tonal texture without being a bold pattern like some of its companions, says J+J/Invision. Using less color and pattern, while featuring the same yarns as those in Montage and Shred, Mosaic, allows the specifier to choose how much or how little pattern is preferred in certain areas of the project space.

All of the products in the Paper Craft collection are manufactured using 100 percent J&J Encore SD Ultima nylon and are warranted under J+J/Invision’s lifetime performance warranty package—the Total Performance System. Each is backed by eKo modular backing, a PVC-free backing that includes recycled content and offers closed-loop recyclability. eKo is NSF 140-2007 Platinum Certified.
