Douglas Fir Wide Plank Wood Flooring - London Residence

The light-filled rooms of this beautifully renovated London townhouse radiate elegance, thanks to the careful selection of materials that enhance the living and dining areas. Interior designer Kim Cable of DeBeauvoir Design Ltd. opted for Douglas fir wide plank wood flooring, a choice that exudes both comfort and understated sophistication. The wide planks, with their distinct grain and subtle knots, introduce a natural warmth and texture to the space, creating a harmonious balance with the contemporary furnishings.

Douglas fir, renowned for its durability and distinctive pale colour, brings an airy, open feel to any room. Its wide planks elongate the perception of space, making it particularly well-suited to larger, light-flooded rooms like those in this townhouse.
The natural tones of the wood complement a variety of interior styles, from minimalist to rustic, while its inherent strength ensures longevity—a perfect choice for high-traffic areas such as living and dining rooms.

Cable’s decision to use Douglas fir wide plank flooring also adds a unique character to the home. The subtle contrasts between the natural wood and the sleek, modern furniture create a dialogue between tradition and modernity, enhancing the overall aesthetic. The soft, warm tones of the wood work seamlessly with the abundant natural light, making the space feel both inviting and expansive.
