I love Alexander Girard designs because they are fun, bold, subtle, kid friendly, adult loving...everything. There's so much variety! I really love the Thick and Thin design in Coco/Cream. This would be perfect in my 8 yr old son's room. Funky, yet fun!

I love Alexander Girard designs because they are so different from other floor tiles. I love them!! I want to win! :-)

By Blogger DeeBee, at 3/26/2008 6:22 PM  

I love this one: http://www.flor.com/service/flor/shop_detail.html?mv_arg=P002702500%2dP00069_02, and the name is so funny!! Crazy daisies in pink, I want one of this, LOL

By Blogger Angela, at 3/26/2008 8:09 PM  

I like that Alexander Girard is so chic! So cool, hip, and mod.

My fave tile is the Tapete Turquoise, but I know my husband would pick something different. :)

By Blogger jenna, at 3/26/2008 8:30 PM  

I like that the Alexander Girard prints are totally un-dull. Those flowers/suns made me smile right when I saw them in these pictures! Very day-brightening. As for the Flor prints I like a few from the new Martha Stewart prints, Cinnabar, Laurel and Brook are all super!

Thanks for the entry!

By Blogger stacey, at 3/26/2008 9:41 PM  

I love the terra design. It would be perfect for our newly renovated hard wood floors!

By Blogger Jessie R., at 3/26/2008 11:58 PM  

After working at a modern furniture store for several years, my apartment is nothing less than mid-century modern fabulous! I actually brought the Flor line into the store, and the biggest reason I pursued them is because I loved the recycling aspect. We had carpeted the entire store, 4,000 sq feet, in Flor, and my picks included the houndstooth and birds on a wire.

But having Girard's designs on my flor would be absolute ecstasy on my feet! I've made pillows and drapes from his Maharam fabrics, and even made little catnip cat-toys with the scraps!
Even my cats play in style!

I can't even imagine! Girard carpet? I'm just waiting for Eames, Merimekko or Panton designs to pop up next!

My dad actually introduced me to Alexander Girard this Christmas with some gorgeous notecards! I love the bold colors and designs. We're looking for carpet squares for our new playroom, and I wanted something bright and colorful without being totally played -- these are perfect!! I'm so excited!

By Anonymous Anonymous, at 3/27/2008 5:45 AM  

Between the Line is my favorite design!

I love that his work is so creative and bold! Definitely not your traditional carpet patterns!

I love Gigard's designs. They're mod and cool, without overdoing it. They also allow you to put your own creative effort in by arranging the tiles. Totally awesome.

My favorite prints: Striped Poodle, Terra and Twiggy.

Thanks!

we purchased flor tiles for our stairs, gambling that they would stay put and provide a modern-looking tread option other than boring, homey braided. the risk paid off! (i cut them in half to fit) the backing on these tiles perfectly grips our painted wood stairs without glue or tacktape and they look great. to vacuum them, i just pull them up, lay them out in a row, run the vacuum over them and put them back. super simple!

i love girard's designs, i NEVER win mod*mom anything :( and would LOVE to use these in my daughter's playroom. please choose me. please.

oh, and my favorite flor pattern from their site is JIGS UP pink. fun!

thanks, kris

I have coveted from afar, but would love to win!

I can't decide between Willow (in red/pink) or Modern Mix (green or blue) for the "big kids" space or the Puzzle for my son's room. They're all so great!

By Blogger Ursula, at 3/27/2008 6:57 AM  

We just got some Flor for my daughters room. I would love to outfit the whole house! I love Willow... though I look forward to seeing more Alexander Girard prints. I am crazy for color!

FLOR has single handedly changed my opinion on carpeting because of good design and affordable versatility.

The marriage of FLOR and Alexander Girard whimsy makes perfect sense!

By Blogger GirlW/OHeels, at 3/27/2008 7:18 AM  

Besides the beautiful ones that you are showing, I'd go with the Brook (colors are completely me).

I'm totally WOW'd with Alexander Girard's designs for FLOR!! I could totally see it in my dining room! And I LOVE that its made from recycled material.

The Jigs Up design would be so fun for a kids room. Very tempting stuff...

By Blogger Mindful Momma, at 3/27/2008 7:26 AM  

LOVE! This would be so fun in our basement we will finish next month. I would love to use this design to drive the whole look of the room.

By Blogger dana's design studio, at 3/27/2008 7:33 AM  

There are too many good ones to pick a favorite, but I love the Twiggy and Willow patterns. My husband and I are purchasing a new house this month and it would be so lovely to put these in the new house!

I've been a FLOR fan for awhile, but combined with the Girard designs, it's brilliant. I love all of the stripey patterns, especially the combination in the "Classic Quilt" area rug. I also love the "Happy Landings" airplanes for my little Linus' room.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I love the sun print on Girard's eco-friendly tiles. I collect sun and moon stuff so they're perfect, especially since their ecofriendly. I like the "finer things" tiles in jade- simple and functional.

I am also a big fan of Girard! And these FLOR tiles are by far my favorites of their designs. I do love their solid, bright colors and I think they're a wonderful, eco-conscious way to bring carpeting into the home. I would really love these for my new little boy's room. Really attractive, practical and environmentally conscious.

I just purchased the FLOR tiles at Target (on clearance!!) -- they're the same color family as our couch, so we're getting an easy-to-clean, large carpet from an eco-friendly company inexpensively!

I've been checking out the FLOR carpet tiles for awhile now. I have been having a hard time trying to decide what I like best. When I saw the new la fonda del sol line I knew that was what I need to spark up my space.

By Blogger beachgrl, at 3/27/2008 3:17 PM  

This is awsome! I love FLOR! LOVE, LOVE, LOVe! What a great idea, wish I thought of it.

The Alexander Girard collection is great. Add a bright spot of color and FLOR makes it so easy you can change with the seasons.

It has been said so many times previously, but Alexander Girard's design is so colorful and fun that it would do miracles no matter what type of style of room you have.
I have spent countless of dollars trying to find the perfect rug, and FLOR is the next on my list. Winning this prize would do wonders for my house!

Thank you for a great blog!

By Blogger Rake, at 3/27/2008 5:41 PM  

Alexander Girard is just so funky and bold. I'd love it under my dining table or in my living.

We've been looking into FLOR carpet tiles as a rug and I was gonna go with Wide Wale and Walking On Clouds, since we're on the floor a lot.

It would be SOOOO AWESOME to win this! Thanks for putting this together. :D

I like that Girard's tiles are so colorful and modern. Perffect for brightening up a house with dark hardwoods like mine. I think my favorite pattern is Willow in Magenta. Somehow bright pink has never seemed so calm and understated.

By Blogger Katie, at 3/27/2008 6:15 PM  

I love the colors and textures. I would have to say that my favorite is the classic quilt Mango area rug. I love the colors.

I can't pick just one fave - as so many of the patterns are just killer and unique in their own right. I could picture all of them in my house - somehow!

The new Girard flor products are simply awesome. What a beautiful addition to any home.

I actually have a flor wishlist ;) My favorites are shirt stripe in rugby for the kitchen and seeing spots in parakeet for the front porch. Both areas of my new house need a punch of color and flor tiles would definitely do that!

By Anonymous Anonymous, at 3/28/2008 4:12 AM  

Girard's work is exuberant, child-like (in all the best ways), and positive. Designs can have a negative or a positive perspective on life, and his may be the most life-affirming collection of any.
Flor? Well, for Pete's sake, I love them all, but especially the souk chic and house pet.

By Blogger Kirsten, at 3/28/2008 5:37 AM  

I love these!

My favorite (and the one that would be sooo perfect in my condo) is the smaller one under the breakfast bar stools.

They are so happy and cheerful!
My floors are dark (heart of pine) and I currently have some carpets on them I purchased in Iraq, but they are simply too dark.

This flor design would make my kitchen sing and me sing when I am in the kitchen cooking!

Hello, can you say color?! When you look at your floor, do you see "just a rug" or do you see joy? These tiles remind me of what I'd like my clients to see when they walk into my office: peaceful, joyful, happy colors and patterns. Ask yourself how often you notice a rug? These are certainly set apart. It's definitely a tie between classic quilt and whimsy, but the pattern you have featured on your blog is my new favorite.

I absolutely love Alexander Girard designs! His stuff is so fun and fresh. I liked all 4 they have on the FLOR site, Azul being my favorite. I think I may end up buying these for my living room at some point. I have to have them!

By Blogger Steph, at 3/28/2008 6:23 AM  

I love that they would look equally beautiful in my kid's playroom AND in my living room. And it doesn't hurt that the walls in my house are painted all of the colors in those patterns!

What an amazing opportunity! Alexander Girard's work was and is a major influence in design especially in textile and graphic design. To have the ability to translate your ideas through a diverse range of products, including FLOR, is unbelievable. Girard is one of my design idols!

FLOR has such an amazing range of tiles from the peaceful Martha Stewart Collection to virbant stripes and solid colors that I can't wait to see Girard's work translated into this stylish and modern carpet.

I've been coveting both the Alexander Girard alphabet blocks over at House Industries and the wooden dolls at DWR - His work makes me smile! It's the perfect balance - playful and intelligent.

I'm thrilled that FLOR is making these tiles, I have the Chartreuse Fedora with Skirting Around as the corners in my bedroom and I love it!

Winning these would be a dream!!!

I am so in love with Alexander Girards designs that I keep the little signature/colour test strip from the edge of his fabrics after I've used up the fabric sewing! The colour combos alone are worth keeping, so the little strips go up on the inspiration board.

I've had crushes on many a FLOR carpet, but this new Alexander Girard one (in the larger scale) just takes the cake,it would be absolutely perfect in my new studio/sewing room/dressing room.

As a person with dogs, carpets are often not an option (they always seem to aim for the carpet, if you know what I mean...) But for awhile now I've thought of investing in a FLOR carpet with a few spare tiles, just in case an accident occurs. This new design is easily my top pick!

Best,
Angie

I love Flor! I just discovered this a few months ago and love that you can change the room just by moving around the carpet tiles. With a design like Alexander Girards you can do so much. I think these would like great in a kids room or a really girly room... or a room where I sew and do projects because it is so great for inspiration! The options are endless. I hope I win!

Thanks mod*mom! I absolutely love Flor and can't believe that they are adding the Alexander Girard pattern. We have used Toy Poodle, Walking on Clouds and House Pet in our house.

La Fonda del Sol was a Mexican restaurant, so it is no surprise that the new Alexander Girard FLOR tiles make me think of my childhood in Mexico City. I'd love to bring a little Mexican sunshine into my colorful, kid-friendly home by carpeting our long hallway with the Alexander Girard FLOR tiles.

We are already a FLOR family, by the way. Here's a pic of our living room, which combines all of our favorite FLOR tiles:

We live in Santa Fe, NM, where Girard's pulse is felt all around. His collection at the International Folk Art Museum brings up back again and again. I just bought my daughter his blocks for her first birthday (subliminal indoctrination into world of good design). Girard was way ahead of his time, and to have his design coupled with the ingenuity and substainability of FLOR? Perfection! I keep lusting after FLOR's Tapete, and stealing my mother's FLOR samples to play with!

I am in LOVE with the Twill Ride
Laurel/Lime design. I notice that all of the designs are created so that they can become the focal point of any room - instead of just a plain green carpet - they have a lime in a twill that makes the whole design "pop". I think they create each design with the idea that not only is unique in it's own way, but that it can be used in so many different "looks." I would love the lime color in particular because I just found out that we will be relocating to Ohio! Yikes! Not to mention that a lot of the year will be gloomy...well, at least where I'm coming from (sunny Arizona). I'm hoping to use color in my home to make things a little more cheerful for the gloomy days. So, hoping that even thought it'll be nasty and grey and cold outside, having a room that is cozy and bright will help brighton our days. Whoa, that was way too much detail. Sorry.

Like you, I too am a huge Alexander Girard fan! I was fortunate enough to see an exhibit of his work at the SF Moma a few years ago and I have been in love ever since!

I love his designs because they are bright, bold, and refreshing.

My favorite floor pattern tiles are Happy Landings, Tapete, and Spiroflake.

a blank floor in our toddler's room is a sore sight
since we haven't found a rug that's just right.
in our home from the 1950's,
eco-friendly and designed so nifty,
a girard FLOR in our house would be complete
and with our budget a free one would be really neat!

i had never heard of FLOR but i think it is a nice idea for those who have hardwood flooring, these prints have an aztec feel to them and i like the azul color scheme the best

These are fantastic. I'm definitely going to buy them for our new apartment, I'm really impressed.

These are great! I love the botanicals, but the "Twiggy" would look so great on the floor of my den/scrapbooing room!

This is the first time I have heard of FLOR, I love it!! I would love to install it in my bathrooms. I like Toy Poodle in Toto Teal and Lush Lilac. I also like House Pet in Frog.

I love them, they look NOTHING like the previous FLOR designs! Wow so bright and fun. I've been ordering samples like mad trying to figure out what we want to do on our porch...I will definitely have to try some of these out too! Thanks!

Alexander Girard designs are exactly what I want to incorporate into my daughter's newly designed room...not too girly but loquacious just like my daughter...I have been meaning to try out Flor for some time now- I have probably 10 samples but haven't taken the plunge yet- I think they will be perfect in a house of 2's- 2 kids, 2 dogs, 2 cats (ok, and one very spill-prone husband as well).

I love Alexander Girard designs because they just make you smile! I really love the retro look and modern design. Just beautiful!! I would love to do our floors here. We live in over a 100 year old house and I just wish I could bring LIFE to our old floors. I honestly am embarrassed by how bad our floors are and I would love the chance to cover them with such beauty that Alexander Girard designs brings! It would truly be a dream for us! I love the Striped Poodle pattern and the Modern Mix amongst many others!
