OAK & GLORY Junckers supplies a new floor for an iconic London landmark.
A large expanse of Junckers’ solid hardwood flooring has been installed in the Paul Hamlyn Hall at The Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.
The light-filled space is the ideal partner for the dark grey Spicy Pepper Oak floor, adding an elegant backdrop to the smart interior.
Originally built as a flower market, the magnificent glass and iron structure now houses a restaurant and champagne bar where events and performances also take place. A busy public area such as this requires a hardwearing floor which is able to withstand heavy usage.
Therefore, the choice fell on Junckers for their reliably durable floors which are easy to maintain and ideal for high traffic areas. Spicy Pepper Oak’s textured surface is achieved by a special hard-brushing technique which removes the sapwood from the outer layer of the timber to reveal a raised structural grain pattern. This has then been enhanced with a deep, dark grey stain.
The naturally occurring structural grain patterns in oak bring a sense of warmth to the large and open hall, complementing the many original architectural features.
Oak Spicy Pepper is a solid hardwood, wide board floor suitable for commercial installations and public spaces as well as residential homes. All Junckers floors are ideal for use with underfloor heating and have a virtually limitless lifespan as they can be sanded and re-finished many times.
The flooring contractors were Junckers’ Approved Contractor PICA Floorings Ltd.
