Parquet in the interior: types, choice of color, ways of laying, 70 photos

Parquet in the interior always emphasizes the comfort of the house and looks luxurious. Floor parquet consists of layers that are glued together (bottom layer ⎯ 1 mm of spruce plywood, middle layer of lamellas, which is glued across, which makes the structure rigid and durable, the top layer up to 4 mm of valuable rock and several layers of protective varnish).

The photo shows the laying of the herringbone in a dark color under the style of the overall interior. Due to the large amount of daylight, the room does not seem gloomy.

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of parquet on the floor:

  • Durability and ease of care (a guarantee of preserving its kind to one hundred years with proper care without abrasive products);

  • Periodic polishing (the harder the wood, the easier it is to scratch, sometimes you need to polish the floor with scuffs);
  • When walking makes a noise that can interfere with the neighbors below;
  • Unstable to moisture, absorbs odor.

Kinds

Parquet floor

Wooden planks with a length of 20-50 cm, a width of 4-7 cm and a thickness of 1-2 cm. There are grooves on the sides. The value depends on the thickness of the upper layer. The slits on the bottom layer relieve tension from the entire board under tension. There is a difficulty in laying and you need to pay attention to the quality of the top coating.

In the photo there is a combination of a French Christmas tree (block parquet is used) with a modern interior. Light wood makes the space wider, which is important for modern apartments.

Pronto-parquet is a type of parquet with exact grooves, with a thickness of the upper layers of 0.5 cm and covered with layers of varnish. Carries a constant heavy load (public places and stage) and is a versatile durable coating.

Modular

Consists of different size modules. The drawing on each module is assembled from individual parts of valuable wood and mounted on a wooden base. Fits faster piece.

Art

The drawing is different way of laying (a geometric pattern is created due to a combination of panels of different sizes and colors). Drawing can be in the form of a border, sockets or individual drawing.

In the photo, an example of how to cover with artistic masonry in the center makes a semantic focus on the dining table in the interior of the dining room.

Floorboard

It consists of three layers of wood, the front layer is made exclusively of noble wood (the selected type of wood affects the final cost of the product).

Color selection

Light (oak, bamboo, ash, maple)Suitable for many style decisions, ethno-style, country, minimalism, makes the room brighter, visually wider. It is combined with any color of furniture and walls.

Dark (wenge and bog oak)The massive furniture in the interior of the classical style, white walls and furniture, red tones and beige textiles go well with the dark floor.

Red (kempast, paduk, dussia) Rarely used due to the fact that such trees grow in Africa and Asia.

  • Pink is often found and has a low density (beech, pear, alder).
  • Yellow is in great demand in different latitudes (tick, olive, iroko).
  • Brown has a high density, wood is widely represented all over the world (walnut, kumara, rosewood, merbau, skipira).

In the photo in the interior of the bedroom there is a modular light parquet covered with varnish. This coating emphasizes aristocracy and without stucco on the ceiling.

Styling methods

Herringbone

Type of installation piece parquet, which due to the complexity of the design holds tightly. Here the load is distributed evenly and gaps do not form over time. As a variant of a well-known pattern, it can be varied by two types of color or plates of different lengths.

Ladder (herringbone "French")

It does not provide the same durable coating as the previous look, it is more difficult to fit, but it looks unusual and original in the interior.

Deck

Dies are stacked one after another with a certain shift (depending on the figure):

  • symmetrical deck
  • chaotic
  • half shift
  • diagonal symmetrical deck,
  • diagonal chaotic,
  • diagonal with a shift of half or 1/3.

In the photo masonry symmetrical deck, which does not attract attention and looks restrained. Suitable for high-tech and minimalist kitchen interiors.

A diagonal deck will visually enlarge a small room. The coating is reliable, but inferior to the herringbone, because the details do not intersect so tightly among themselves.

Flip Flops (squares)

Visually increases the size of the room, this method is resistant to mechanical stress, can withstand a large load. A square is laid out of three or more planks, which is laid perpendicularly next to the same square. It turns out neat and symmetrical pattern.

Basket (pletenka)

Here, as in the Christmas tree, you can combine different colors and size of parquet to create a unique pattern that resembles weaving from a rod. Due to the arrangement of colors and patterns in the interior looks original and modern.

In addition, each method of masonry can be combined or varied with small square inserts from the same or a different sort of tree.
