Am26 Trensp Denmark Herringbone

Mikkel-Emil Jensen, director at Nybord, Denmark-based Lignea ApS, says that in addition to solid and engineered plank wood floors, herringbone is also in demand. “We see a clear trend where herringbone goes in and out of popularity year after year, but it rises more and more,” he says. All of the flooring is installed with full-spread adhesive with no nails. “A parquet pattern we call ‘Dutch weave’ (shown below) is also becoming popular,” he notes.

An Art Deco Revival Made to Last
For nearly a century, the Waldorf Astoria in midtown Manhattan has served as the unofficial palace of New York City. So when the opportunity to manufacture and finish 8,500 square feet of flooring, parquet and complex patterns for the 1930s-era Art Deco hotel came up, Los Angeles-based BoardHouse jumped on it.
