Charm and individuality

Karndean Designflooring introduces new designs from around the world with gluedown and rigid core format convenience. It’s all in the detail. From contemporary Italian slates, natural organic oaks to opulent marbles.

Karndean Designflooring, is expanding its popular Van Gogh range with a stunning dual format collection of contemporary designs, giving unrivalled versatility to conceive personalised interiors. The launch will introduce stone designs to the range for the first time as well as wood designs in on-trend herringbone and chevron options.

Available now, the new Van Gogh range will offer Karndean’s widest collection to date with a total of 70 unique wood and stone designs. The collection oozes character and elegance with options to suit individual tastes, from traditional English country style to modern minimalist. Home decorators will appreciate the extensive variety of colourways and tile sizes as well as a convenient choice of formats to suit different installation needs.

Inspired by the beauty of the natural world and materials sourced from different countries, Karndean’s refreshed Van Gogh collection offers highly realistic wood and stone designs in a range of warm, neutral and cool colour palettes.

The new range is set to introduce nine brand new wood designs, from characterful Highland Oaks and rustic Farmhouse Oaks to warm American Cedars, as well as 15 new stone designs featuring the striking veining and natural variation of marble, slate and terracotta.

Gavin Smith, marketing director at Karndean Designflooring, said:

“Our new designs have been created to authentically replicate the charm and individuality of each sample of wood and stone sourced from places as diverse as a school in San Diego, a railway station in the Scottish Highlands and high mountain quarries in Italy.

“We understand that people are looking for surfaces that not only looks like real wood and stone but also comes with the convenience and flexibility of cutting edge flooring. Our latest collection has been designed to bring these organic colours and textures into our homes so we can benefit from the healing powers of nature, while a choice of tile sizes allows for interesting laying patterns.”

Adding warmth and comfort to off-white monochrome spaces or a mature timber look to a traditional home style, new designs Glenmore Oak and Croftmore Oak feature the distinct grain details of the original timbers in rich honey or pinky-beige tones. Enhancing this authenticity, a natural wood grain emboss matches the surface texture to the grain patterns, bringing the floor to life.

Introducing a mid-range tone to Van Gogh’s popular brushed oak designs, Neutral Brushed Oak has a warm grey wash that’s ideally suited to pale earthy colour palettes. Available in a full sized plank, a smaller herringbone tile and a chevron option, this is the perfect flooring for those of us looking to take a single colourway from room to room.

With the popularity of grey interiors showing no sign of waning, the addition of new wood and stone designs in cool tones offers outstanding choice to add depth and character. Inspired by time worn painted floorboards, Silver Farmhouse Oak is just one example, presenting a unique rustic patina with white paint remnants for a comfortable shabby chic feel.

Introducing stone designs into the range for the first time, Karndean has created a collection of iconic marble, slate and terracotta designs in cool tones, from the fresh white colouring and distinctive veining of Palazzo Marble to the clean charcoal hues of Milanese Slate. Four Breccia marbles feature the natural stone’s characteristic embedded fragments in a new large 18” x 36” tile which amply highlights the natural variation of the product.

The new range offers the ultimate selection of beautiful designs with most available in both a rigid core and gluedown format to cope with common subfloor conditions. Quick and easy to fit, rigid core is suitable for uneven floors such as existing floorboards or tiles and can be installed over new floors that are still drying. Home decorators looking for bespoke designs with inset feature zones and coordinating borders will find the flexibility they need with the collection’s gluedown planks and tiles.

An ideal alternative to real wood and stone, Karndean flooring has all the charm of real wood and stone but without any of the practical downsides. Waterproof, easy to keep hygienically clean and comfortable underfoot, this is a flooring that’s perfectly suited to busy modern life.
