One of the questions we're often asked is why a finished Motion floor doesn't look exactly the same across every square metre. The answer is simple: every Sphere8 Motion floor is individually hand mixed during installation, creating a completely bespoke finish that is unique to each project.
Unlike printed designs or manufactured flooring products, Motion resin flooring celebrates natural variation, giving every installation its own character and movement.

A Motion resin floor is created by carefully blending two complementary pigments during the installation process. Rather than producing a completely uniform colour, the pigments flow together to create subtle movement throughout the seamless floor.
This technique adds depth and texture to the finished surface while maintaining the clean, contemporary appearance that resin flooring is known for. The result is a floor that feels more organic and natural than a single solid colour.
Because the floor is created by hand, every installation develops its own individual pattern, meaning no two Motion floors will ever be identical.

Every Sphere8 Motion floor is installed by skilled craftsmen who mix the pigments by hand during installation. This means the movement of colour will naturally vary across the floor, with some areas showing more visible motion than others.
Before installation, clients can discuss the overall level of movement they'd like to achieve. Some prefer a softer, more subtle blend, while others choose a more dramatic finish with greater contrast between the two colours.
However, because each floor is individually hand finished, the exact pattern cannot be replicated or manufactured. This is one of the defining characteristics of a genuine Motion resin floor and part of what makes every installation completely unique.

The natural variation found within a Motion floor isn't an imperfection—it's part of the design.
Much like natural stone, polished concrete or timber, subtle differences in colour and pattern give the finished floor its character. The movement within the resin changes throughout the space, creating a floor with depth and individuality that evolves as light moves across it during the day.
For clients looking for a completely uniform appearance, a Solid resin floor may be the preferred choice. For those wanting a more bespoke, design-led finish, Motion flooring offers the opportunity to create a seamless floor that is truly one of a kind.
Whether installed in a contemporary home, retail space or commercial interior, every Motion floor reflects the craftsmanship and attention to detail that goes into every Sphere8 installation.
