Bright and stylish: Oak Herringbone flooring transforms an Arts & Crafts kitchen
For a busy family of four living in a stunning two-storey Arts & Crafts style home in south west London, the key to their new kitchen extension was creating a light-filled, modern space with plenty of room for everyday life. Glazed on two sides, the open-plan kitchen and dining area now enjoys an abundance of natural light, making it the perfect spot for both family time and entertaining. And the foundation of this transformation? A striking stained oak herringbone parquet floor from Natural Wood Floor Co.
The L-shaped design of the kitchen-dining area sets the stage for a harmonious blend of mid-century modern and contemporary elements. A Danish-inspired dining table serves as a beautiful contrast to the rich, dark tones of the oak parquet flooring. While the frameless glazing floods the space with light, it also opens the door for a darker floor that adds depth and sophistication against the light cabinetry.
Durability was a major consideration for this young family, who needed a floor that could stand up to the wear and tear of everyday life while still looking effortlessly stylish. The stained oak herringbone parquet not only delivers on practicality but also infuses the room with warmth and character, making it feel cosy yet spacious. With its easy maintenance, it’s a perfect fit for busy parents who want to enjoy the beauty of natural wood without the fuss.
The contrast between the dark floor and the bright, airy space brings a dynamic feel to the room, balancing light and shadow, old and new. The parquet’s classic herringbone pattern adds texture and interest underfoot, ensuring that this family-friendly kitchen feels as luxurious as it is functional.
With this seamless blend of mid-century modern flair, natural light, and durable flooring, this new kitchen extension has transformed into a sun-lit haven, ready for everyday family life. The stained oak herringbone parquet from Natural Wood Floor Co ties it all together, offering both beauty and resilience for years to come.
