Why Choose Parquet Flooring?
Parquet is the ultimate choice for those who refuse to compromise on style and quality. Its benefits go far beyond its stunning appearance.
Timeless Aesthetic
Parquet patterns are eternally in style. Whether it's the classic elegance of herringbone or the clean lines of chevron, these designs add a layer of sophistication that transcends fleeting trends.
Adds Significant Property Value
Parquet flooring is universally recognized as a premium feature. Installing it is a sound investment that significantly enhances the desirability and market value of your property.
The Authentic Beauty of Real Wood
Each plank tells a story with its unique grain, knots, and texture. This natural variation brings an organic warmth and character into your space that cannot be replicated.
Versatility in Design
From grand, formal living rooms to contemporary master bedrooms, parquet flooring adapts to any interior style, adding depth, movement, and a powerful visual focus.
Parquet Flooring in the UAE Climate
A common question we hear is: “Is real wood flooring suitable for the heat and humidity in the UAE?” The answer is a definitive yes, provided you choose the right type.
While traditional solid wood can be susceptible to expansion and contraction in fluctuating humidity, Engineered Parquet Flooring is the superior and recommended solution for the UAE.
Engineered Parquet is made from a multi-layered construction. A top layer of high-quality solid hardwood (like oak or walnut) is bonded to a core of multiple, cross-laid layers of plywood or HDF. This ingenious structure makes it far more dimensionally stable than solid wood. The cross-layered core counteracts the natural tendency of the wood to warp or cup, ensuring your floor remains beautiful and flat for decades, even in the coastal humidity of Dubai.
Discover the Iconic Patterns: Design Possibilities
We offer a range of classic and contemporary parquet designs to bring your vision to life.
Herringbone
The most iconic and beloved pattern. Rectangular planks are laid in a classic, interlocking zigzag, creating a sense of movement and timeless elegance. It is perfect for adding character to both large and small spaces.
Chevron
A sophisticated pattern characterized by its clean, V-shaped lines. The planks are cut at an angle and meet at a perfect point, creating a seamless and uniform arrow effect that can make a room feel longer and more spacious.
Versailles
Named after the Palace of Versailles, this is the pinnacle of luxury. It features an intricate, woven pattern of wood squares set within a frame, creating a formal and majestic appearance for truly grand spaces

Frequently Asked Questions
This is the most critical question for any wood flooring in the UAE. The definitive answer is yes, but only if you choose Engineered Parquet. Unlike solid wood which can be prone to warping in high humidity, Engineered Parquet is constructed with a multi-layered core that provides superior dimensional stability. This structure resists the natural tendency of wood to expand and contract, making it the perfect and most reliable choice to enjoy the authentic beauty of wood in your Dubai or Abu Dhabi home without climate-related issues.
Absolutely. Parquet flooring is widely recognized as a high-end, luxury feature in the real estate market. Its timeless elegance and association with quality craftsmanship make it a significant selling point. Installing engineered parquet is a sound long-term investment that can substantially increase the perceived value and saleability of a villa or premium apartment in the competitive UAE property market.
Engineered parquet flooring is designed for modern living. The top layer is made of durable solid hardwood, such as oak, which is known for its strength. This is then finished with multiple layers of a protective, UV-cured lacquer or oil that resists scratches and stains. While it is a natural product and requires care, a high-quality engineered parquet floor is perfectly capable of withstanding the demands of a busy family home.
Parquet flooring is considered a premium flooring solution and a long-term investment in your property. While the initial cost is higher than for materials like vinyl or laminate, its value is measured in its longevity, timeless appeal, and the significant value it adds to your home. Unlike trend-based floors that may need replacing, a well-maintained parquet floor can last for decades.
The difference lies in the artistry. While standard wood flooring consists of planks laid side-by-side, parquet flooring is the craft of arranging wood planks into a geometric pattern. The most iconic and sought-after patterns are Herringbone and Chevron. This patterned design transforms the floor from a simple surface into a stunning, architectural feature that adds a significant layer of luxury and design sophistication to any room.
While both are classic zigzag patterns, they have a distinct difference in their design and effect:
Herringbone uses full rectangular planks laid in an interlocking pattern, creating a beautiful, woven effect with a sense of movement.
Chevron uses planks that are cut at an angle (typically 45 or 60 degrees). When laid, these planks meet at a perfect point, forming a true "V" shape or arrow pattern that creates a clean, uniform, and elegant look.
Maintaining the beauty of your parquet floor is straightforward with the right care.
DO: Regularly sweep with a soft broom or vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Clean spills immediately. Use a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for hardwood floors with a lightly damp microfiber mop.
DO NOT: Use excessive water, steam mops, or harsh all-purpose cleaners, as these can damage the wood's protective finish and cause moisture issues.
The stunning effect of a parquet floor is entirely dependent on the precision of the installation. It is a highly skilled craft that requires meticulous attention to detail, from expert subfloor preparation to the precise cutting and laying of each plank. A flawless installation by a specialist is essential to ensure the pattern is perfect and the floor remains stable and beautiful for its entire lifespan. This is not a standard flooring installation; it's a work of art.
