Where the floor becomes the architecture. Herringbone, chevron and patterned layouts set with exacting precision, so the geometry leads the eye and gives a room its rhythm.

Engineered oak, cut and laid for pattern that holds true for a lifetime.

The Design Collection is where geometry takes over: herringbone parquet flooring 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.

About the Collection
Pattern & Proportion.

The Design Collection brings together LIGNORA's patterned floor formats — herringbone, chevron, and large-format plank — in prime grade European oak. These are floors where the laying pattern is as much a design decision as the wood itself.

Prime grade oak means consistent, tight grain with minimal character markings — the right background for a pattern that needs to read clearly across a room. Every floor in this collection is installed by our own team, who have laid these patterns across hundreds of London and South East properties.

Samples available on all products. Our team will assess the subfloor, advise on the correct adhesive, and quote the full installation before you commit.
