TEXTURE

SHADOW SAWN

Inspired by the natural wear and tear of wood, we make both shallow and deep saw marks across open areas of the board.

COASTAL WEATHERED

Replicating a weather-beaten texture, our sand blasted floors have an authentic, reclaimed appearance.

UNDULATING

By sanding the wood’s natural undulations, we work with the grain across the floor for a truly organic feel.

To reveal the timber’s natural grain, we remove soft summer growth using our clever brushing technique.

SMOOTH

Carefully sanded to achieve a sleek, uniform look for that contemporary gallery-style finish.
