Flooring Engineered for Commercial Developments
Create and deliver with an edge
Solid and engineered timber flooring is fast becoming the preferred type of flooring for commercial establishments. Due to the conventional construction methods, the striking characteristics of the knots and grains often create a unique focal point for commercial buildings.
When you utilise solid and engineered timber flooring, there’s a myriad of opportunities available for commercial developments.
The use of timber flooring in commercial spaces
When it comes to commercial spaces, developers often choose to have timber flooring implemented into their establishments. With a wide variety of grains, plank sizes, colours and patterns, architects have the ability to choose a flooring design that will make the development stand out.
It’s important the type of flooring used in commercial buildings suits the target demographic visiting. Whether you’re looking to create a sleek contemporary finish or a rustic art deco design, there is a timber product in the market which suits all requirement and desires.
The Balance of tones in commercial spaces
The balance of colour has a drastic effect on the personality of a space. The blend of dark and light tones will always have a major impact on the atmosphere of a room.
If you’re looking to draw a large room in, then using darker coloured wood floors against warm colours will help to build a cosy atmosphere, perfect for an intimate restaurant. On the other hand, using a dark black or grey coloured wood floor can make your space look bigger if paired with the correct cool colours for the walls, ceiling, trims and mouldings. The right combination of dark and light colours can make any room expand before your eyes. Another way to instantly create the appearance of more space is through the use of natural, lighter colours like a light oak. Light shades have the ability to open up the room, giving you the appearance of more space without you having to declutter.
For commercial buildings it’s important you evaluate the type of ambience you are trying to create. White and light beige tones will give the room a sense of openness and purity, perfect for welcoming individuals into a contemporary office building. An interior which includes a lot of brown colours will have a very natural and rustic feel, perfect for a pub or bar environment. Using grey tones can help create peaceful surroundings, whilst using black flooring will create a dramatic, powerful room, which stands for luxury and class, often found in many hotels.
