Chevron has gained popularity in recent years in flooring, and trend forecasters say we can expect to see more of these striking patterns into 2019 and beyond. It’s easy to see why – the flexible design makes it versatile enough to use for traditional or modern design.
Often found in formal living rooms, dining rooms, and entrance halls, the elegant zig-zag design elevates a room from the ground up. The intricate pattern also adds a new dimension to an otherwise plain square in a room.
This classic motif is rich in history and has been around for centuries. The zig-zag pattern experienced a resurgence during the Haussmann era in 19th-century Paris, when the city was rebuilt in a major urban planning effort. Many of the new apartments at the time featured parquet floors with a chevron pattern. Today, you will see many famous historical buildings around the world, especially in Europe, featuring this exquisite design.
Chevron planks are achieved by ensuring that each “zig” and “zag” are connected at a 45-degree angle, creating an inverted V formation. This distinctive pattern’s clean lines also bring out nature-inspired wood grain patterns and work well in both light and dark wood finishes.
This modern and innovative flooring solution is great for those who want to stand out and look for something unusual. Think about installing the flooring either in the entire room or cover only a part of the floor area. Chevron flooring is also used to make an impression that a room is bigger than it is. Engineered wood flooring is a very universal flooring solution and is ideal for creating the chevron pattern.
