Campus is a Bauhaus-inspired collection of carpet tiles offering a range of patterns and tones for different spaces.

According to the company: "The modern campus is no longer just a place of learning or commerce, but a hub for innovation and inspiration. Rooted in patterns and tones that work across multi-use spaces, the No Rules carpet tiles meet the cycles of activity at the heart of any corporate or educational campus. From calm neutrals to corresponding, multi-colored brights, the Campus collection embraces the Bauhaus appreciation of bending the rules. Campus’ system of carpet tiles interweave the strands of creativity, contemplation, and collaboration with artistic intent to deliver designs that reflect the spirit of the modern campus."

Shaw also launched Compound + Cast, an LVT flooring collection "inspired by natural materials," according to the company. "Each style and colorway creates a palette of neutrals and colors that work together throughout your environment."

  • Q&A: How to Prevent Kitchen Grease Fires in Commercial Kitchens

    School cafeterias and university dining halls serve thousands of meals daily, relying on high-heat equipment like fryers, grills, and ovens. While these operations keep students fed, they also generate significant grease-laden vapors. Without proper controls, this grease becomes a silent fire threat. As a certified exhaust cleaning specialist and business coach who has helped hundreds of institutional facilities achieve NFPA 96 compliance, I emphasize that proactive grease management isn’t optional; it’s a core fire/life safety practice.

  • Rethinking K-12 Schools as a Continuous Learning Experience

    Most students move through three or more separate facilities during their K-12 journey, yet the built environments they encounter at each stage have traditionally been designed in isolation, with little continuity in spatial language, learning philosophy, or physical resources. Each new school is a reset with different layouts, learning models, expectations, and ways of moving through a building. The next generation of school design is making the case that the first day of kindergarten and the last day of high school can and should feel connected through common support systems and infrastructure in the physical environment.
