/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Plan the board direction and connection to retained floors before the new hardwood is ordered.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Set a starting line for a straight lay after comparing room angles, door positions and the longest view.
Herringbone Hardwood
Herringbone uses alternating pieces.
Chevron Hardwood
Chevron pieces meet at a point. Verify angle and edge cuts before ordering material for the full room.
Diagonal Hardwood
Diagonal fitting changes how boards end at the perimeter. Include the extra cuts in the layout and material count.
Checkerboard Parquet
Check how whole checkerboard modules fit the room and where a partial pattern will meet the trim.
Basket Weave Parquet
Lay out a basket weave repeat on paper first so its borders and thresholds do not interrupt the pattern unexpectedly.
