A pilot's strange obsession for hotel carpets has now found Instagram fame

When a pilot's daughter tweeted saying that all she wanted for Christmas was for her dad's Instagram account of hotel carpets to go viral, she didn't expect it to happen overnight. Hundreds of thousands of people now share Bill's love of the fascinating, wacky and sometimes 'challenging' designs of the hotel carpets he sees around the world (he now has a dedicated following of 409k). This pocket-sized book documents the weird and wonderful patterns we tend to ignore on our travels and is accompanied by the photographer's tongue-in-cheek commentary.
