The patterns and designs of the parquet blocks have subtle and natural variations in the shade of such woods as oak and maple, which is in marked contrast with the darker and more vibrant colours of walnut and mahogany, producing everlasting richness and warmth.

For strength, stability and versatility, and for the ease in which parquet can instantly transform the dullest and most mundane floor into one of outstanding beauty, parquet is the obvious choice for those with a taste for only the very best things in life.

The burst star effect from pattern Saba (above) is enhanced immeasurably with the use of dark mahogany against a background of light maple and oak.

Below is pattern Venice. In this particular installation the oak background was substituted with maple to give more light to the room – a lady's bedroom.
