There are none. The client has forbidden me to post pictures online...

Oh, too bad, I would have liked to see the hammer result.

I have the same issue with the parquet flooring—I want to keep the installation direction consistent with the tiles.

For the living room, I want to create a sense of depth, so should I lay the parquet from top to bottom? The living room measures 6.8 meters (22 feet 4 inches) deep and 7.8 meters (25 feet 7 inches) wide. If I do this, the tiles at the entrance won't be laid across the room, which would look nice in the 3-meter (10 feet) entry area.

Living room details:
I have two patio doors (2 × 2.1 meters / 6 feet 11 inches) facing the garden, with a stove positioned between them.

Ideally, I should lay the parquet perpendicular to these doors, which looks good to me. However, I want to emphasize the depth of the living room, which is 7.8 meters (25 feet 7 inches) wide.

Are there any professional flooring planners out there? 🙂

If anything, everything should be installed in the same direction. It’s best to check this on-site; that’s how we do it. The tile setter places the tiles in different orientations, and then a decision is made.

In an almost square room, that won’t work. Parquet flooring is usually installed perpendicular to the direction of incoming light (e.g., terrace doors facing south ⇒ parquet laid from west to east).
