SADDLE BROOK, N.J.-- Nourison Hospitality today announced that its Glassfall collection has been named a finalist in the flooring category at the 22nd annual Hospitality Design Awards. The collection was selected from more than 1,100 product and project submissions worldwide, with finalists in the flooring category drawn from across the broader hard- and soft-surface industry, including tile and timber.
Unveiled at BDNY 2025, Glassfall reinvents the stripe through the lens of reeded glass, layering texture and color to create patterns that feel both modern and timeless. Anchored in viridian — a cinematic, heritage green that balances stability with indulgence — the palette is enriched by shades of oxblood, amethyst, and accents of coral red. Together, these tones produce immersive, transitional designs intended to bring depth, mystery, and refinement to hospitality interiors.

Designed by Nourison Hospitality’s talented senior designers, the collection spans multiple constructions, each chosen to show the designs in their best light. The hand-carved Axminster broadlooms are integrally woven from 80% premium wool and 20% nylon on state-of-the-art electronic jacquard looms, allowing for large-scale, non-repeating patterns. The hand-tufted rugs combine intricate color blending, hand carving, and variations in pile height. Patented Nourmak and Nourmak Plus rugs pair hand-woven and hand-knotted constructions to create pieces that are entirely made by hand, with Nourmak Plus designed to be displayed as an art piece. The Infinity carpet uses an exceptionally complex technique to create shaded patterns with multiple pile heights in only two colors.

“Glassfall began with a simple observation — the way reeded glass quietly distorts and reorders what passes through it,” said Dipesh Haria, creative director, Nourison Hospitality. “Our team translated that idea into pattern, texture, and color across very different constructions, and to be recognized in a flooring category that included the best of the best tile and timber alongside carpet validates the ambition behind this work.”
Glassfall is engineered for the full range of hospitality environments — from ballrooms and lobbies to guestroom corridors, guestrooms, and bars — with coordinated patterns, door drops, runners, and fills designed to work together across a single property. The collection underscores Nourison Hospitality’s commitment to large-scale customization, artisan craftsmanship, and design-led storytelling for world-class hotels, resorts, casinos, and clubs.

“Glassfall represents the kind of work we want our brand to be known for — thoughtful, technically ambitious, and unmistakably hospitality-grade,” said Feryal Rehman, vice president of marketing, Nourison Hospitality. “Being named a finalist alongside tile and timber, in such a competitive year, is a meaningful recognition for our designers and our manufacturing teams.”
The 22nd annual Hospitality Design Awards were presented in Las Vegas on May 6, 2026, with more than 400 industry guests in attendance. The full list of finalists and winners will be featured in the May/June issue of Hospitality Design magazine. Glassfall will be on display, alongside additional new installations, when Nourison Hospitality returns to BDNY in November 2026.
