From the European Middle Ages came elaborate designs, borders, inlays and medallions, developed for their most highly prized structures such as castles and monasteries. These breathtaking styles in wood flooring are reflected today, as treasured as they were hundreds of years ago. Modern techniques and greater accessibility, however, have allowed them to become a stunning addition to any home. Custom designs are a perfect way to give life to your individual character.
The choices of pattern, design, exotic wood sources, along with the artistic flare of each project, can provide a limitless number of possibilities. Mixing wood species taken from all over the world is particularly appealing. Oak has always had the monopoly by far, but now you can choose among maple, birch, walnut, Brazilian cherry, mahogany and ash, to name just a few, for their unique grain and color specifications.
Or, by combining wood with several different media such as slate, stone, marble, concrete or ceramic tile, floor designs and patterns come to life. A floor refinisher can also use different wood stains to create trompe d'oeil inlays, pinstripes and framing in satin, gloss or semi-gloss. A simple brass inlay around a fireplace is a cost-effective way to add a special touch. Or, ready-to-lay, pre- finished wood and elaborate borders are available. These allow homeowners to mix and match to create their own patterns and designs.
