THE ART OF WOOD Karndean Designflooring introduces new Art Select wood designs
UK specialist in luxury vinyl flooring, Karndean Designflooring has extended its sophisticated Art Select wood collection with 14 new designs including French oak, American chestnut and hickory.
Designed to accommodate a growing desire for highly realistic flooring, Karndean’s latest Art Select wood designs offer cross-sawn and hand- scraped embosses for an authentic look of traditionally crafted planks, with intricate patterns for impressive variation across the floor.
Four new French oak designs - Prairie Oak, Glacier Oak, Mountain Oak and Savannah Oak - offer an extended colour range to include gentle beige, cool grey and warm honey tones. Inspired by wood sourced from European forests, the new designs are characterised by a clean, natural look, along with a matte finish. The flowing grain variation and gentle colour tones with subtle contrasts will bring a sense of grandeur to any interior. Available in a choice of extra-large planks (56 x 9”) and parquet format (18 x 3”) the new oak designs are suitable for different laying patterns, such as herringbone or laying at 45 degrees.
A brand new Reclaimed Chestnut design faithfully presents the rustic feel and rich warm tones of traditionally crafted wood planks found in historic barns and factories of North America. Featuring the subtle matte finish of unpolished boards, the new design offers an eclectic, rustic appearance. Now scarce in its natural form, reclaimed American chestnut floors are often collated from many sources and feature a mix and match pattern of planks, so for additional realism, Karndean’s Reclaimed Chestnut design is also available in a random plank option.
Joining Karndean’s Art Select hickory range are four new designs – Natural Hickory, Weathered Hickory, Vintage Hickory and Classic Hickory – offering unique and elegant contrasts in colour between the deeper heartwood of the plank and the bright outer sapwood. A new and exclusive emboss enhances the characteristic saw marks of the

original wood flooring, authentically replicating the appearance and texture of unfinished timber.
