Lano Flooring Solutions has provided bespoke axminster carpets for the bedrooms and corridors of one of the flooring industry’s most well known venues, The Majestic Hotel, Harrogate. Under the operation of the Barcelo Hotel Group, The Majestic Hotel has undergone extensive refurbishment since a disastrous fire took hold on one side of the Victorian landmark in the centre of the Spa town.

Working with architectural interior design firm, Charles Leon Associates, Lano Flooring Solutions supplied 2000m2 of carpet that reflected the heritage of the building and the modern ambitions of the owner. Basing the carpet of the bedroom corridors on traditional Persian rugs and animal motifs, CLA in conjunction with the design team at Lano Flooring Solutions introduced a contemporary twist through colour and the interpretation of design elements. The design flows from modernised traditional through to contemporary as you move through the hotel, flowing softly into the guestrooms.

“We wanted to provide The Majestic Hotel with a carpet that provided a perfect blend of style and performance and thanks to Lano Carpets, we were able to deliver both. A contemporary take on traditional textile design, not only in colour but also pattern and scale now adorns the corridors and guest bedrooms,” comments Joumana Khodr, interior designer, Charles Leon Associates. “and thanks to the state-of-the art manufacturing techniques used by Lano, the durability criteria could also be met, vital in such a busy and popular hotel.”

With the carpet constructed from a mix of 80% wool 20% nylon for durability and appearance retention, the corridors of the hotel benefit from a nine-row woven axminster, while in the bedrooms an eight-row construction was utilised. Using the same nine-row construction as in the bedroom corridors, Lano Flooring Solutions also created a modern classic design for ground floor corridors.
