LVT Plank Options Quickly Becoming Go-To Standard in Commercial Flooring Designs
In a world filled with endless options, finding the right flooring design for your next project can be difficult. With so many new flooring designs popping up on a consistent basis, it can be challenging to find something that fits your needs in terms of aesthetics and functionality—not to mention ease of maintenance. This is why versatility is key.
Today’s commercial space beckons for a professional, yet subtle and sleek feel, while the design of healthcare facilities calls for something more welcoming, yet equally as durable and clean. The requirements may change in terms of the specific project, but the need for a dependable and stylish flooring product remains steadfast. Today’s designers want something fashionable, yet functional. But how do you achieve this healthy mixture of look and feel in your flooring design without compromising quality? You have several options, from the durability and unique character of engineered hardwood, to the versatility of Parterre’s luxury vinyl plank designs.
The InGrained collection is the standard go-to collection for LVT design in the commercial design industry, offering supreme versatility and unparalleled sophistication. As part of the InGrained Resilient Plank collection, these LVT flooring designs are inspired by the natural beauty of wood and bring new life to traditional colors and patterns in a 6” plank size and wider 7.25”.
InGrained offers over 40 LVT designs and colors including all the classic wood species, including oak, mahogany, teak, hickory, cherry, pine, and many more. Newer additions such as Jatoba and alder wood grains, along with two apple wood designs, Autumn Apple and European Apple, balance out the more exotic options within the collection. For a smoother and more polished design, a linear walnut pattern is available in three distinct colors: Traditional, Sanibel and Exotic.
But it doesn’t have to stop with InGrained. If you combine the classic elements of the InGrained flooring designs with the contemporary look of the Vertu Resilient Plank collection, you have over 80 new LVT flooring designs to choose from.
In addition, Parterre offers three collections of engineered hardwoods. Wooded Habitat features affordable, artistic solutions with colors and tones that allow you to create distinctive spaces in your flooring designs. The Nurtured collection provides a rustic, comforting feel for commercial spaces that require an inviting, down-to-earth appeal. Engineered hardwood from the Deeply Rooted collection offer a more luxurious feel through sophisticated, high-quality finishes. Because our engineered hardwood collections are drawn directly from nature, each plank showcases a one-of-a-kind texture and appearance, and the durability and ease-of-use of engineered hardwood makes it ideal for commercial spaces. The possibilities are endless.
The following are some of our favorite examples of our LVT flooring combinations using a mix of patterns and styles, as well as engineered hardwood designs.
Wider plank flooring designs are gaining popularity in the commercial design industry because of the aesthetics, and also due to the ease of installation. Parterre’s LVT collections are available in 6” and 7.25” planks, which can be mixed and matched for a unique look. One possible combination of flooring designs features three looks from the Vertu LVT collection. Canal Oak, Feathered Oak, and Harvest Oak are arranged in a random pattern to highlight the colorful, contemporary look of the space. Combined, the trio of flooring products creates a sleek and modern feel.
Typically, when installing plank flooring, you follow a random staggered pattern. However, the above combination goes against this trend. Instead this installation follows a mix and match pattern, which is becoming more popular throughout the commercial design industry. This particular combination showcases three commercial flooring designs: InGrained: Lancaster Patina; HardCore: Acid Metal, Copperline; and HardCore: Ornamental, Slate.
Our Ascendent Collection lets you step outside traditional boundaries with pre-cut LVT in Chevron and Herringbone Patterns. This design above, featuring the Herringbone Essex Maple from the Ascendent Collection, gives off a warm feel with the mix of two different maple colors.
This chevron pattern exemplifies the versatility and variation made possible by the Ascendent Collection. The above flooring design is for the adventurous commercial designer, who may be looking to get more creative in a hospitality setting like a trendy hotel, restaurant or store. This flooring design features warmth and texture in an on-trend, pre-cut pattern made up of a series of inverted Vs.
The offset, intervening rows of this corridor pattern flooring design enhances the classic comfort of English Elm, part of the InGrained collection. Switching the direction of the planks, as in the above flooring design, allows for a creative and distinctive layout. This design is perfect for an industrial corporate space, and soft enough for a healthcare space.
With any of the patterns mentioned above, the result will be a beautiful floor that is both long lasting and durable. The InGrained collection covers several different wood styles from traditional classic to exotic and distressed, making InGrained the standard go-to LVT collection for the commercial interior design industry.
