Featured project

Stirrups Hotel Bracknell -- herringbone Pisa across the public floor.

Studio ROWE specified Winderen herringbone Pisa across the restaurant, bar and reception of Stirrups Hotel -- a single material running through the full ground floor. The herringbone reads as period gesture and performs as modern engineered: 2-6mm European oak top layer, FSC certified, UFH-compatible.

Continuous floor specification across multiple zones reduces transition detail risk and reads as a confident interior decision -- the floor doesn't shout.

See the project

"A 2-6mm oak top layer over a multi-species substrate uses real timber where it matters and engineered substrate where it doesn't. The thinner lamella reduces real-timber footprint per square metre by ~40% versus solid oak parquet."

Specification

The Winderen plank + parquet, in detail.

Top layer

2-6mm oak

European oak top layer, FSC certified. Reduces real-timber footprint per m² by ~40% versus solid oak parquet, while delivering the same surface visual + sand/refinish life.

Formats

Plank + parquet

Plank, herringbone, oversized herringbone (up to 1500mm blocks), chevron, multi-species marquetry, bespoke patterns. Single-material specification across multiple zones.

UFH

27°C surface

UFH-compatible across the range. Engineered construction tolerates the seasonal RH range of UFH-served interiors that solid oak cannot.

Compliance

FSC + EPD

FSC / PEFC chain-of-custody. Full EPD documentation per project. BREEAM Mat 03 Excellent on responsibly-sourced material.

2-6mm

real oak top layer

~40% less real timber per m² versus solid oak parquet. The substrate handles structural load; the top layer delivers the visual and the sand/refinish life.

FSC

chain of custody

Fully traceable European oak supply. Documentation supplied per project for BREEAM Mat 03 evidence.

1500

mm oversized blocks

Oversized herringbone available up to 1500mm blocks. Specified at the Cunard QM2 ballroom and gallery-scale interiors where standard parquet reads as too small.

Cruise + heritage case study

Cunard Queen Mary 2 -- multi-species marquetry plank.

The QM2 ballroom dance floor uses a Winderen multi-species marquetry plank -- a custom mixed-species engineered specification that runs across the full ballroom, performs under heavy guest traffic, and tolerates the marine humidity cycle that would split solid timber within a single voyage.

Engineered, not solid, was the only viable specification.
