FAQ
This type of parquet is a beautiful detail in interiors arranged in both traditional and modern styles. French herringbone is an excellent accent in glamour-style spaces. Larger elements, 10 cm or 12 cm wide, cut at a 45-degree angle, work perfectly in an elegant living room, dining room, or spacious kitchen. In one of our project photos (French herringbone in the kitchen and living room), you can see how this pattern presents itself in a contemporary interior.
Blocks laid at a 90-degree angle are a more affordable alternative to French herringbone. For variation, they can also be arranged in double rows. Classic herringbone suits traditional, retro, or minimalist interiors. The pattern is timeless, and thanks to its characteristic composition, it remains decorative and stylish.
There are several ways to lay straight wooden parquet, and the most common include: brick pattern (regular), ship deck pattern, and basket weave. The first introduces order due to its structured, repetitive motif. The popular ship deck pattern works well in classic interiors. Basket weave or checkerboard parquet decorates the floor while adding smooth symmetry.
