DLW inlays with tradition

Since the start of the twentieth century, architects

have been decorating fl oors with linoleum inlays to

make them look as valuable and attractive as the

tapestries on the wall, the velvet curtains at the

windows, and the rustling taffeta skirt belonging to

the lady of the house. Even the modernists who were

averse to the decorations of the past still continued

to use inlays: The boudoir in Brugg, Switzerland,

can be dated back to 1926, while the fl oor from 1956

in the reception area at the Neckarwerke plant in

Ludwigsburg no longer exists. The colourful inlays on

the fl oor used to coordinate with the two-tone neon

lighting on the ceiling.

While the tastes of this time have not quite made the

transition to present day, the modernist style certainly

has. Examples of the present design can be found in

Bauhaus, de Stijl and constructivism.

Monument conservationists looking to restore an

earlier fl oor covering pattern can do so using modern

inlay technology. This is how Peter Behrens‘ inlaid

fl oor in the Bremen town hall was reconstructed, for

example. Linoleum inlays make use of the special

features of this material, which make it easy to cut

and can be put together seamlessly.
