Desert lends a feeling of vast, open spaces to the indoors with its subtly layered organic design. Like the shifting sands of the desert, this textured carpet tile collection allows you to play with the space to create a serene flooring scheme. With a wider spectrum of muted shades to bridge existing neutral and accent colours, the restyled palette of DESSO Desert presents multiple combinations for creative expression.
In addition, the SoundMaster XLite acoustic backing can be added, for improved sound absorption.
DESSO Desert comes standard with our improved EcoBase backing, which sees a new bio-based ingredient replace a core ingredient formerly composed of petroleum-based content.
