Where the floor becomes the architecture. Geometric parquet in oak and walnut: trellis, hexagon, Cairo and woven patterns, alongside herringbone and chevron, set out with exacting precision so the geometry leads the eye and gives a room its rhythm.
Engineered oak and walnut, cut to order and laid for pattern that holds true for a lifetime.
The Design Collection is where geometry takes over. The geometric floors are made to order, so panel size, finish and borders are settled with you before production; the herringbone formats come in three block sizes, chosen so the pattern can be scaled to the room.
Small 90×450 blocks give period-correct rhythm in Victorian terraces; 125×600 and 143×600 read more contemporary, with fewer joints and a bolder zig-zag across open space.
Why engineered parquet Traditional solid parquet moves — it is why old blocks lift.
Engineering each block keeps the oak wear layer people want with a stable core underneath, which means these patterns run safely over underfloor heating and across the wide, open rooms solid blocks would struggle with.
The invisible-finish options keep the surface looking like raw sanded oak while fully protecting it.
Pattern is a fitting discipline A herringbone floor is decided at setting-out: the centreline, the border, where the pattern breaks at thresholds.
Our own herringbone flooring installers in London lay every Design Collection floor, and you can see the patterns at full scale on our parquet flooring London page — or order free samples and start with the blocks in hand.








The Design Collection brings together LIGNORA's patterned floors: geometric parquet in European oak and American black walnut, and herringbone, chevron and large-format plank in prime grade oak. These are floors where the laying pattern is as much a design decision as the wood itself.
Clean, consistent grain is the right background for a pattern that needs to read clearly across a room. Every floor in this collection is set out and installed by our own team.
Samples available on all products. Our team will assess the subfloor, advise on the correct adhesive, and quote the full installation before you commit.
