Hi,

How would you lay the parquet flooring in this apartment layout? Uniformly across the light direction in the living room, or uniformly along it? The parquet will be installed uniformly, meaning there are no plans to change the orientation in different rooms. It is also decided that the hallway and kitchen areas will have parquet, just to clarify that in advance.

Best regards,
Maria

I agree!
That’s exactly why we moved into this house.
The downside is:
You get used to it, and it doesn’t stand out anymore 🙁

… but I keep reminding myself:
“Take a moment to notice again how amazing it feels to have such a wide view…!!!”
… it’s a bit awkward, but it works 🙂

Thanks for your opinions. We will probably install the flooring perpendicular to the direction of the light. Our reasoning:

- Emphasizing the long living room and also making the narrow bedroom a bit wider.
- The hallway symbolically as a walkway leading into the apartment.

The flooring will presumably be the Natura plank: Oak Castillo Natural/Rustic.

Best regards
