Armstrong's Urban Settings collection of textured sheet vinyl gives discerning customers the practicality and style they desire in a floor. The fun yet refined Urban Settings patterns - Crocodile, Diffusion, Kyoto, Raku, Stucco, and the soon-to-be-released Twinkle and Vienna - let builders capitalize on the trend toward hard-surface flooring (vinyl, laminate, tile, hardwood, linoleum) throughout the home without overlooking color or the intricate design elements home buyers want because they've become more knowledgeable about finishing materials throughout the home. Crocodile (shown) uses reverse embossing technology to recreate the look and feel of reptilian hide, a unique flooring attribute. It's available in six colors, and the other Urban Settings patterns come in a variety of colors as well. Visit www.armstrong.com for more information.
