One Squishy Step at a Time
If carpets, hardwood, and concrete floors are too passe for you, how about one that generates floral patterns underneath every squishy step? The Blooming Step flooring system is a vinyl carpet containing nontransparent gel that appears clear when undisturbed. When you step on it flowers seemingly bloom from the surface tension and just as quickly disappear – creating a visual conversation as people walk across the room and interact with furniture.

Interesting idea. I can’t help but wonder, though, is this the kind of thing that would be remembered the way shag carpets are remembered from the 70s?

Um, yeah, because it’s sooo comfortable to walk on a big squishy unstable pad.

This could be marketed the same way those cushion pads are, the ones you would use while standing at the sink doing dishes.

I wonder how it is achieved? It materializes to a form so similar to a flower
