I’ve been looking at options for upgrading the floors in our new home and came across something called “design parquetry.” The pictures look amazing, but I honestly don’t get how it works. It’s not like standard planks – seems way more complex. Is it just for big luxury homes, or can you actually get something like that customized for a normal-sized flat? I’m especially curious about how people manage to match patterns with stairs or wall cladding. Feels like a huge puzzle...

I’ve never had design parquet in my place, but a friend of mine did a full custom install with it, and the result was seriously impressive. What caught my attention most was how seamless the transitions looked – especially going from floor to staircases. They had this combination of wide planks and stair nosing that made the steps blend right into the rest of the room. Definitely showed me how detailed and planned wood flooring projects can get, even in smaller homes.
Totally get your confusion – I had the same questions before working with a specialist. The cool part is, you can get design parquetry tailored to any project. It’s all made by experienced craftsmen who collaborate with architects to make sure each floor fits the space, whether it’s a big open hall or a narrow stairway. If you're considering this in Edinburgh, this wood flooring shop in Edinburgh handles everything from concept to installation – including stair cladding and curved layouts.
