We think Tarkett’s Fulton Market showroom will really resonate with you!
Step Inside
Located in Fulton East, 215 N. Peoria, Chicago, Illinois, Tarkett’s 10,000 square-foot showroom welcomes customers and industry influencers with gorgeous displays featuring new and long-favorite flooring product collections, designed for collaborative and productive workspaces.
Project Overview:
The Fulton Market District has transformed into a notable design destination; and the showroom is no exception. In addition to showcasing Tarkett’s latest product collections, the showroom serves as a daily workspace for local employees, as well as a gathering space for client meetings and events. Visitors will find large conference rooms, private offices, open collaboration areas, and a full kitchen—all surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows to bring in plenty of natural light. Here, clients can access Tarkett’s entire library of product solutions, making it an ideal place to gather inspiration for current projects.
They can also enjoy a cozy balcony and expansive rooftop that offers 360-degree views of the Chicago skyline.
Design Days
From June 9–11, 2025, Tarkett is joining leading commercial interior brands in hosting the fourth-annual Fulton Market Design Days. The theme for this year’s showroom is “What resonates with you?” promoting the launch of Tarkett’s latest carpet tile collection: Resonant Spaces™.
The collection celebrates the notion that we are influenced by the profound and resounding energies that surround us. And something magical happens when a space resonates with you—an invisible flow of energy, a positive feeling, a harmonious rhythm that draws you in and connects you to your surroundings.
Throughout the showroom, Tarkett demonstrates how good interior design—particularly with flooring and floor accessories—sparks creativity, flows effortlessly, and inspires constantly.
“Well-designed spaces have the power to provide comfort and sanctuary,” says Omoleye Simmons, vice president of design at Tarkett. She continues,
We instinctively expect the spaces we spend time in to resonate with us in some way to provide that level of comfort. As we connect with the energy of the spaces around us, we are inspired to contemplate the unseen beauty that exists beneath the surface of our daily lives. This allows us to be our true selves to engage and enjoy that space.
“The Resonant Spaces collection of carpet tile merges art, science, and design to create workplaces that invite exploration and appreciation of those unseen energies, evoking a sense of depth and intrigue.”
Ultimately, the collection provides the flexibility to create comfortable, collaborative workplaces that infuse employees and occupants with confidence and a sense of trust. Inspired by the invisible threads that tie together people, space, and energy, Resonant Spaces provides the foundation for comfortable interiors that support heightened creativity, deepened focus and lifted spirits. The collection features three harmonious patterns in nine soothing colorways—all available on Tarkett’s fully circular ethos® carpet tile backing.
Made with up to 79% recycled content, ethos is a sustainable solution for high-traffic spaces where ease of installation and healthy materials are a must. It is non-PVC and Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver. The backing can truly contribute to the circular economy by being fully recycled back into itself through Tarkett’s ReStart® take-back and recycling program.
Styles are also available in Flex-Aire™ cushion carpet tile.
Three must-see products
In addition to this year’s featured collection, Tarkett is also showcasing a full portfolio of flooring and accessories—the Tarkett Solution SPECtrum™—further demonstrating an ability to meet the needs of every type of space. Highlights include:
- The 2025 Johnsonite® Colors of the Year is a vibrant celebration of nature’s living language, available on all Johnsonite products, including wall base, rubber tile, stairwell management solutions, and finishing accessories. Inspired by the brilliant hues found in flora, fauna, and bioluminescent beings, these six colors are a testament to how the natural world communicates, attracts, and builds community. Each shade embodies the beauty and purpose of nature’s most remarkable designs, inviting us to speak boldly and live harmoniously in spaces that feel vibrant and alive.
- The High Frequency™ carpet collection, available in three styles, reverberates with positive energy and creativity. Ideal for exuberant interiors, the collection is available in carpet tile and durable Powerbond® hybrid carpet. Powerbond RS is the world’s first soft surface flooring Certified Asthma & Allergy Friendly®.
- The Color + Light™ collection of luxury vinyl tile is inspired by the interplay of color and light to enhance spaces and offer a glimmer of joy. Made on Tarkett’s Contour® platform that features a 32-mil wear layer and Techtonic protection, Color + Light delivers unmatched durability—while unleashing imaginations to create perfectly crafted environments from the ground up.
