Antique oak herringbone parquet with single row border | SW2 Crystal Palace
Antique oak herringbone parquet perfectly bridges traditional and modern styles
This extensive herringbone parquet project included the whole ground floor of a large detached home in Crystal Palace. A new herringbone parquet floor was commissioned for the large entrance hallway, an office, the large living room and a new kitchen extension. The property is a traditional 1930s house with a modern kitchen extension and the herringbone parquet is a perfect solution to bridge both styles. The parquet was made from engineered oak with aged effect antique oak oil. One of the advantages of using aged wood is that the aged effect improves over time and there is no need to maintain the floor by sanding.The parquet was glued down with a reliable, long-lasting, strong adhesive Stauf SPU-460.
A keen focus on the detail
This was a project focused on details - aged antique oak, uninterrupted single row borders at points curved and hexagonal following the contours of the room, and a seamless symmetrical layout across the whole ground floor. The successful focus on detail made this project special. The customers appreciated our efforts and craftsmanship and were delighted with the finished floor.
