WIDE IS WONDERFUL

There is no doubt that wide plank flooring is on the upswing. Back in the day, this was actually the “norm” as cutting the lumber into narrower planks was not usual.

As wood engineering technology evolves, wide floor planks enjoy greater durability, elegance, and a renaissance moment in the wider design world.

Wide plank wood floors bring an upscale feeling and elevate any space.

From traditional to modern to vintage designs, wide planks are a stunning foundation from which to build, whatever your personal aesthetic and vision may be.

Let’s explore the benefits of light tones listed above in more detail.

Inspire a sense of strength, grounding, and serenity.

Wider planks not only translate to fewer seams in installation—and, therefore, a more sweeping, uninterrupted flow—but also allow more space for wood to really shine.

FIREWOOD

The upper section of the tree is used for firewood, which may not be suitable for flooring due to higher branch density and smaller trunk size.

CHARACTER

Our character grade comes from the middle part of the tree. This part has a visual appeal and some knots but avoids the large holes of the top part. We refer to our character grade as “light character”.

SELECT

Our select grade comes from the bottom part of the tree and is the youngest wood, which results in the absence of knots and a sleek appearance.
