When Tenpin decided to reconfigure the layout of its leisure complex in Hounslow and embark on a complete refurbishment of the premises, it was in need of practical flooring that could cope with a high level of footfall, and was also available in a vibrant selection of colours.
The Tenpin branding had recently undergone a refresh with the new logo including a brighter secondary colour palette with pinks, purples and oranges. London-based design agency Dover Design was enlisted to create a dynamic environment in keeping with the updated branding, that conveyed a lively sense of energy and fun. The Amtico Signature collection was used in the approach to the lanes to direct the bowler to the game, while also making the players’ zones distinct from one another. Throughout the rest of the facility, Amtico Carpet tiles were used as they are hard wearing, easy to replace and allowed the design team to create specific zones.
This scheme is all about energy, colour and movement and the Amtico Signature collection was perfect for this. The LVT flooring was cut into triangles that direct the bowler to the game and distinguish the player zones.
The Amtico Carpet tiles allowed us to introduce a slight variation within the grey palette in order to indicate route ways around the layout. We used lighter greys with the darker carpet tiles to direct customers to the reception.
For us, the whole process went seamlessly. We have worked with Amtico products before and will definitely be specifying them again in the future
