Technical Excellence: Karndean Art Select represents the pinnacle of luxury vinyl tile engineering. With a substantial 3.0mm total thickness and premium 0.7mm wear layer, Bellota Oak Herringbone delivers outstanding resilience against heavy foot traffic, furniture movement, and everyday wear. The softly muted knots and neutral grey-beige tones provide sophisticated aesthetics with excellent scratch and scuff resistance—all without requiring sanding, oiling, waxing, or specialist maintenance. Unlike traditional oak parquet that requires careful acclimatization, professional installation by specialist craftspeople, and regular oiling or waxing, this innovative alternative offers all the visual sophistication with none of the maintenance burden. Installation & Maintenance: The slimline herringbone format opens up creative design possibilities. The contemporary 28" x 4.5" dimensions create a more modern, elongated herringbone pattern compared to traditional formats, perfect for contemporary interpretations of classic parquet. Lay in traditional herringbone for timeless elegance, or experiment with double herringbone and mixed patterns combining with RL27 larger planks. Each box covers 3.252m² with 40 pieces, providing excellent coverage. Compatible with underfloor heating systems up to 27°C, and requires only simple sweep and mop cleaning—no acclimatization, professional finishing, or ongoing treatment needed. The individual piece format means damaged sections can be easily replaced. Design Inspiration: Enhance your herringbone installation by incorporating Karndean Design Strips to create feature borders or define zones. DS10 Chalk beautifully complements the neutral beige and grey tones, while DS12 Concrete adds tonal continuity that echoes the grey undertones. For subtle definition, try DS03 or DS14. Consider creating a herringbone "rug" effect in an open-plan space, bordered with design strips and surrounded by the matching RL27 planks in straight lay for a truly bespoke designer floor. The neutral mid-grey and beige palette with softly muted knots pairs effortlessly with both warm colours like terracotta and rust, and cool tones like soft blues and sage green, providing exceptional design flexibility.
