Abstract

"AZULEJOS DE TAPETE ASSIMETRICAMENTE SOMBREADOS E INSTALAçõES DE AZULEJO DE TAPETE QUE CRIAM ILUSõES DE LUZ E PROFUNDIDADE". A presente invenção refere-se a azulejos de tapete que podem ser posicionados adjacentes um ao outro sobre uma superfície de piso de modo a criar a aparência de luminosidade que emana a partir do piso ou a ilusão de profundidade. A formação de piso tendo as propriedades da presente invenção é obtida por meio da produção de módulos de piso retilíneos que têm a cor distribuída sobre o módulo de muito escuro para muito claro através do azulejo a partir de uma borda para a borda oposta. Os tufos de fios provêem um 'fundo' de cor constante e intensidade ao longo da dimensão mais longa do azulejo que progride através do azulejo de muito escuro ao longo de um lado para muito claro ao longo do outro lado. Entre as bordas de azulejo escuro e claro encontra-se uma região intermediária de progressão de cores que começam escuras e tornam-se claras. As intensidades das cores na região intermediária de preferência progridem de claro para relativamente esmarcidas entre as bordas de azulejo escuras e claras de modo que a intensidade da borda de azulejo de cor clara seja maior, e deste modo a cor clara fique mais proeminente sobre o azulejo de tapete, do que a cor adjacente ao mesmo sobre um azulejo de tapete. Isto resulta em que as bordas de cor clara 'se destaquem' sobre os azulejos de tapete, o que contribui para a ilusão criada pela presente invenção, especialmente quando as bordas de cor clara são posicionadas adjacentes às bordas de cor escura."ASymmetrically Shaded Carpet Tiles and Carpet Tiles Installations that Create Illusions of Light and Depth". The present invention relates to carpet tiles which may be positioned adjacent to one another on a floor surface to create the appearance of light emanating from the floor or the illusion of depth. Floor formation having the properties of the present invention is achieved by producing rectilinear floor modules having the color distributed over the module from very dark to very light across the tile from one edge to the opposite edge. The tufts of strands provide a 'background' of constant color and intensity along the longest dimension of the tile progressing through the very dark tile along one side to very light along the other side. Between the dark and light tile borders is an intermediate region of color progression that starts dark and becomes light. The color intensities in the intermediate region preferably progress from light to relatively sharp between the dark and light tile edges so that the intensity of the light colored tile border is higher, so that the light color becomes more prominent over the tile. than the color adjacent to it over a carpet tile. This results in the light colored edges 'standing out' over the carpet tiles, which contributes to the illusion created by the present invention, especially when the light colored edges are positioned adjacent to the dark colored edges.
