Floors in real rooms

How to use this page when choosing your own floor.

A floor is easiest to judge in someone else's home. The projects here are real installations, supplied, fitted and finished by our own team and photographed in the rooms they live in. Between them they cover most of the decisions our customers face: wide plank against oak herringbone, pale against dark, new oak against reclaimed oak.

Read them as case studies. If a photograph looks like your house, a Victorian terrace, a lateral flat or a new extension, the floor and format underneath it are a working starting point. Three good places to start: the wide plank floor in Richmond shows how long boards behave across a whole floor; the reclaimed oak in Sevenoaks shows what salvaged timber really looks like laid; and the Victorian herringbone in Chelsea settles the period-pattern question better than any swatch.

When one catches your eye, order free samples or send us a photo of your room and we will recommend the floor.
