Adairsville, Ga.—Beaulieu Commercial’s new online design tool, iDesignCarpet.com, gives designers the ability to create and, according to the company, is the first in the industry to offer the option of immediately printing visually accurate virtual floor samples.

The Web site also differentiates itself in its impressive speed, ease of use and flexibility, noted James Lesslie, president. “We believe this site will significantly change the way people view customizing products online.”

Time is of the essence in today’s design community, Lesslie explained, and iDesignCarpet.com helps customers create individualized, custom-colored product without adding time to the process. “The entire procedure—view it, customize it, print it and move on—can be completed in as little as five to 10 minutes.”

Cathy Mansour, director of marketing, added speed is what makes this site different because it works in real time. “In less time than it takes to pick up the phone and order a sample, you can have your own custom-designed one in your hands.”

First, designers choose a current line from Beaulieu’s three commercial brands—Cambridge, BOLYU or Aqua Hospitality—then they have the freedom to place carpet styles in various room scenes and view them in an array of line colors or create custom ones. And, results are immediate, which provides users with custom colors and designs in minutes.

Again saving time, new colors can be viewed from several angles and placed in numerous commercial concepts such as corporate, educational, hospitality, institutional and retail room scenes. A modular tile configurator is also available for previewing tile layouts. And, all work can be saved to project folders, downloaded to a printer or sent by e-mail to colleagues and clients.

Lesslie said iDesignCarpet.com also supports the ever-expanding green movement by replacing traditional carpet strike-offs with printed samples. “This eliminates manufacturing waste as well as reduces shipping cost and time.”
