(LEBANON, NJ) May 2023 — Construction Specialties (CS) greets the spring season with five new patterns for its Acrovyn® and Acrovyn® by Design lines of interior wall coverings. Comprising 26 colorways grouped in three collections, the new patterns evoke tactile, whimsical and organic-inspired motifs, letting designers choose from among a highly coordinated palette of finishes for a seamless design experience. The new patterns are manufactured using durable Acrovyn®, which makes them ideal for use in high-traffic areas, wayfinding sections and healthcare settings where walls must be periodically cleaned or sanitized.
Acrovyn® by Design – The Whimsical Collection Inspired by playful objects such as surfboards and beach balls, the Whimsical Collection which includes Bubble Trouble and Bath Bubbles designs, offers impactful playfulness and whimsy. “In healthcare settings, especially areas dedicated toward pediatric and young adult care, we’re seeing more and more appreciation for designs that make you smile. This inclination towards playful patterns is also cropping up in education and retail environments,” said Sweeting. Bubble Trouble is offered in two different tricolor combinations: Mélange and Rainbow Sherbet. Bath Bubbles, the coordinating single-color pattern featuring the graphic elements in reverse, is available in six fresh colors: Spearmint, Turmeric, Basil, Fraise, Banana and Blueberries.
Acrovyn® by Design – Textile Patterns Building on a recent increase in market interest in textile patterns, CS introduces two stylized, weave-inspired designs to the Acrovyn® by Design line of wall coverings: Wave Weave Mini and Wave Weave Maxi. Both patterns are available in six shore-inspired colors: Oyster, Opal, Puka, Conch, Flame Auger and Blue Wave. “Textile patterns have the innate ability to work in many different spaces,” said Amy Sweeting, Product Manager for Interior Product Solutions at Construction Specialties. “Our aim was to stretch a little more fashion-forward with these stylized interpretations of simple fabric patterns.”
Acrovyn® Strata Is it woodgrain, stone or abstract? You decide with the new Acrovyn® Strata collection. “We’re seeing a rise in ‘ambiguously natural’ visuals in the commercial interior design space, especially in flooring and laminate material,” said Sweeting. “We want to give designers color and texture choices that can blend well or can stand apart, depending on their design goals.” Designed to coordinate within almost any environment, this amorphic pattern offers both organic and modern design appeal.
Three of the six available colors are neutrals that imply wood or stone: Ash Blonde, Honey Auburn and Silver Gray. The other three fully celebrate color with warm, whimsical hues, including Strawberry Chiffon, Blue Raspberry and Honeydew Melon. Strata is offered in a standard suede emboss or with optional microtextures to enhance the pattern’s striation, adding visual dimensionality and tactile interest. It is available in sheet and wall panel forms, as well as on doors.
