The Basics
Wood, stone, ...or both? Whether you are looking for a large, rich, oak-effect plank for a living room, or parquet size marble-effect tiles to decorate your bathroom, one of the first choices will be your décor or colourway. ArtBlend boasts six unique décors, each available in three sizes, allowing you to choose the perfect floor for your home. With Artblend you are not restricted to a single colourway, instead you are able to mix and match more than one. Why not create a stunning pattern, like some of those shown in this brochure, or use the options to zone sections of your room, such as visually separating an open-plan kitchen-diner?

Create maximum impact with a herringbone floor that will make a strong style statement in any home. Not only does this monochrome floor look edgy and cool, but this type of flooring design will make your room look bigger due to the illusion of the pattern. Herringbone is a fantastic space enhancer that looks chic when teamed with neutral walls. Be bold or go home!

Blend #2
Bauhaus Parquet & Avant Garde Parquet Whilst this pattern may look complicated to lay, it is a straightforward twist on a traditional favourite. By turning a herringbone laying pattern diagonally to give it a more geometric appearance, and filling in each décor thoughtfully, it is a simple twist on a timeless classic. We had fun mapping out this floor to create a maze effect, which would look amazing in either a home or commercial space.

Bauhaus Herringbone & Art Deco Herringbone Who doesn’t love hundreds and thousands? This kitchen floor was inspired by the nostalgic ice cream topping, by sprinkling planks of the contrasting décors Bauhaus and Art Deco in a classic Herringbone laying pattern. Although we’ve used the Herringbone size for this room, we think this blend would look fantastic in the parquet size in smaller spaces, too.

Bathrooms are the perfect place to let your creativity run wild especially when it comes to your flooring choice. A boldly patterned floor will add instant drama to your bathing space. And the best bit with this range, is the flooring pattern you create will be unique to you. Ideal for ensuite bathrooms or shower rooms, this intricate design looks best when teamed with white walls and marble accents.

Blend #5
Conceptual Parquet & Art Deco Parquet Sometimes, the simple but classic herringbone laying pattern just isn't enough. Introducing the double Herringbone. This pattern will look striking using any combination of ArtBlend décors, trust us! Although we’ve used the Parquet size here, we can imagine this pattern looking spectacular in the Herringbone size in a larger bathroom, or even to zone an open-plan kitchen diner. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, why not go one further and test out three décors?

For extra emphasis try swapping Conceptual out for Avant Garde, or for a more traditional wood effect with a twist, why not combine Renaissance with Conceptual?

Art Deco Parquet and Tile & Expressionist Parquet ArtBlend is suitable for walls as well as floors! When paired with a suitable adhesive it can be adhered to your walls, for the ultimate in continuity across a room. A light colour such as Art Deco is perfect to create the illusion of space in a small room with limited natural light. This is a great example of using different décors to zone different areas of the room, with the gradual transition providing a visual platform for the gorgeous roll top bath as a focal point of this bathroom.

In open plan spaces, use your flooring to ‘zone’ areas in your home to give them distinction and purpose. My one hot tip is to lay a more intricate pattern in your kitchen area which complements your units and countertop, but then run one of the tiles through the rest of your room for a harmonious look. This is a clever way to add personality to different areas of your home while still keeping the feeling of light and space.

Blend #11
Art Deco Parquet & Avant Garde Parquet Basketweave is a classic laying pattern, which when paired with this combination of Art Deco and Avant Garde, produces a striking statement floor. ArtBlend’s parquet size is perfect for smaller bathrooms, and the 1:3 size ration makes laying basketweave a dream. The contrast of Avant Garde in the centre of each triplet totally transforms the look of this classic laying pattern. For the ultimate impact, we have paired the rich dark stone of Avant Garde Parquet with the white marble of Art Deco Parquet, but this pattern would be fantastic with any ArtBlend pairing.

Art Deco Parquet & Renaissance Parquet Hallways are the perfect place to experiment with patterns. A space often devoid of features, a hallway can be viewed as a tempting invitation to experiment by those who are design motivated. We have used the parquet size of Renaissance and Art Deco to create this bold pattern, which draws your eye toward the gorgeous panelling. For a smaller hallway try a less intricate pattern, or perhaps pair Renaissance with Bauhaus or Conceptual to tone down the look.
