Patterns

A floor pattern is rarely just decoration. It is the first decision that sets the tone of a room, the geometry that determines how light moves across a surface, and the craft that separates a floor from a field. A well-considered pattern, drawn in proper proportion and executed in the right woods, gives a residence its sense of order, its visual rhythm, its quiet authority. Herringbone that draws the eye through a threshold, chevron that anchors a great room, parquet that rewards the closer look: these are the decisions that distinguish a floor from a floor built to last.
