1. The type of parquet
The first step is to decide what type of parquet we want: traditional wooden parquet, laminate floor or exotic wood. Traditional wooden parquet is long-lasting and can be sanded, while laminate floors are easy to clean and more affordable. Exotic wood brings a world of special colors and patterns to our home.
2. Color and style
The color and pattern of the parquet greatly influence the atmosphere of the apartment. Light shades expand the space, while darker colors lend elegance and warmth. Herringbone or chevron patterns offer a modern and spectacular solution, while traditional slats provide classic elegance.
3. Durability and maintenance
It is worth considering the thickness, sandability and wear resistance of the parquet. If you are planning for the long term, choose high-quality, thick-layer parquet that can be sanded several times. With proper maintenance, the lifespan of the parquet can be significantly increased.
4. Price and budget
The price of parquet varies, depending on the type, material, thickness and method of laying. It is important that our budget includes transportation, gluing or laying, and surface treatment. Sometimes it's worth sacrificing a little more for quality, as durability pays off in the long run.
5. Environment and humidity
Wood is sensitive to weather conditions, so it is important to consider the humidity and temperature of the room. For example, professionally treated parquet can be chosen for the bathroom, but traditional wood works better in the living room or bedroom.
Summary
The right parquet is selected based on several aspects: type, style, durability, price and environmental conditions. If we consider these, our home will be both elegant, comfortable and sustainable in the long term.
