Colour begins with the interior.

Colour is developed from the material palette, natural light and desired contrast. These images hold the place for future Designer Range samples.

Two construction depths.

Choose the overall build-up and wear layer together. Both constructions use a French oak surface over a cross-layered full birch core.

Hydronic pipework within the floor build-up

Why full birch core?

Alternating birch layers run in different grain directions. This balanced construction helps reduce movement as indoor conditions and floor temperature change.

Hydronic underfloor heating only

Electric underfloor heating is not supported. Hydronic system design, operating temperatures, subfloor preparation and commissioning must be reviewed before specification.

Plank, scaled to the room.

Select 240, 260 or 300 mm widths, or develop another size for the project. Grade can be specified as AB, ABC or ABCD.

Other widths and board dimensions can be developed to suit the floor plan, subject to technical review and availability.

Grade control

Set the amount of natural variation and timber character expected across the floor.

AB

Sample approval

ABC

Sample approval

ABCD

Sample approval

Natural timber varies. Grade expectations are confirmed against an approved sample and grading specification.

Parquet, with control at the edge.

Herringbone and chevron use a 710 × 125 mm board format. Choose AB or ABC grade, then coordinate the bevel with the construction depth.

Bevel options

The bevel changes how clearly each piece reads after installation. Choose it with the pattern scale, colour and expected light.

15/4 construction

Micro bevel or 1.5 mm bevel

Curved parquet.

A curved herringbone profile introduces a softer rhythm while retaining a repeatable parquet setout.

Bring the design intent.

We will translate it into a floor specification and confirm what is practical for the project.
