The Versailles style is known for its square-panel design, geometric detail and statement appearance, making it suitable for interiors where the floor is intended to be a key design feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis floor style differs from a simple plank layout because the pattern is created through panel design, scale and grain direction. The final appearance can vary depending on panel size, wood species, surface finish, tone and lighting in your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it uses engineered wood construction, Versailles engineered flooring combines a real wood surface with a layered core.

The invisible oiled finish is chosen to add very little colour, so the grain and pattern look fresh and raw while the surface is still protected.

Cross-laid layers resist the swelling and shrinking that solid wood is prone to, which helps the joints stay tight.
