Abstract: The present invention relates to a new type of floating carpet for covering any size surface, including entire rooms, by interlocking carpet covered bases on which resides a layer of carpet where each portion of the multiple tiles forming the carpet is a flat plastic base with side interlocking mechanisms made of male and mating female connectors to allow for the rapid design and installation of a modular layer of carpeting over existing surfaces, and more specifically multiple rectangular tiles each with a polymeric base on which is attached a piece of carpet for quick interlocking of side locking mechanisms on the polymeric base to secure adjacent carpet tiles into a carpet over a surface.

Abstract: A window frame system with transparent, tinted, or translucent window frames is provided. The window frame itself is transparent, tinted, or translucent, instead of merely the enclosed glass window. Because the frame of the window is light permeable, additional light may pass through the window frame yielding an increase in the overall brightness of the window. Additionally, the structural and environmental integrity of the window is preserved because the window frame remains solid. A transparent screen may also replace a conventional screen to further increase light transmission.
