Top 5 Benefits Of Parquet Flooring And Plank Floors – Part 2

Here are 3 more of the most popular parquet flooring patterns.

Chevron wood flooring is easily recognisable because it boasts an inverted “V” pattern. Each one of the wooden blocks is shorter and narrower than usual planks. And the end is also cut at a 45-degree angle. This way, the planks can come together into a point and create the stunning Chevron pattern.

Just like with Herringbone floors, chevron flooring requires skilled and meticulous craftsmanship. That’s why you need to partner with someone who will take pride in ensuring your flooring is perfect.

Basketweave flooring is named after (you might have guessed it) the effect it creates once it has been installed: the weave of a basket. The pattern behind basketweave flooring is complex. And the grain and colours of the wood play a vital role in creating sumptuous basketweave flooring that gives the impression floor planks are interwoven.

It is one of the most popular wood flooring options for residential and commercial spaces due to the unique charm and aesthetic it can provide to a space.

Just like with Herringbone flooring, it rose to popularity in France during the 1600s. Back then, it would adorn royal and rich people’s homes. And this explains why it’s often associated with sophisticated, elegant, and classic interiors.

While you can fit basketweave flooring anywhere, this pattern is particularly suited to larger rooms. That’s because a larger room will allow you to experience the design’s full potential.

Mosaic parquetry is a classical yet unique decorative flooring that wood floor specialists use for residential and commercial projects. One of the main draws for Mosaic parquetry is its versatility and its high degree of personalisation. The “timber fingers” or small timber strips used to lay Mosaic parquet flooring can be arranged in rows in alternating directions, thus creating a mosaic effect.

This is the perfect option for people looking for a natural and raw look for their home but who don’t necessarily want the Château or country-style planks.

Now that we’ve established what the most elegant and popular types of parquet flooring are, we’ll review the five main benefits of fitting parquet flooring in your home in part 3 of this series – chick here for part 3.
