If you want your home to look completely unique, with a design scheme and features that no one you know has in their homes, you need to start thinking outside the box.

When it comes to wood flooring, you might think that most wood floors are similar and that it will hard to find a product that really stands out. You’d be wrong in thinking this, as there are quite a few ways you can get a totally unique and unusual floor in your home. Here are just a few examples:

1. White wood flooring. When you think of wood floors, warm browns and reds immediately come to mind. However, there are some products, such as Kährs Alabaster in Ash wood flooring for example, that are very pale or even white. Made using a light wood such as ash and finished with a white matt lacquer, this kind of floor adds a pristine beauty and a strikingly contemporary look to any room.

2. Exotic woods. When choosing wood floors, you aren’t limited to just oak. If you want something more unusual, choose an exotic wood such as Merbau, Jatoba, Wenge, Teak or Jarrah.

3. Parquet floors and floor medallions. If you really want to create a unique look with wood floors, parquet floors, with their individual patterns and designs, along with customisable floor medallions, are the way to do it.
