Dark Arsenic 2 Chevron Parquet and Solid Oak Stairs in Central London

Project · Central London, London

Hoff Parquet supplied "Dark Arsenic 2" chevron parquet and made bespoke solid oak stair treads and risers for a modern high-end home in central London. The brief was to match the floor and stairs to the colour of the furniture and doors, giving one consistent dark tone throughout the house.

We love this high-end residential project in central London for one main reason: “Modern” is the core concept throughout the home.
The brief was challenging: match the colour of the furniture and doors, supply parquet flooring in chevron pattern  and produce bespoke solid oak wood stair treads and risers. The result was a “Modern Epiphany” that matched the style of the furniture and other interior details in this truly superb residential project.

Chevron parquet and bespoke stairs in London homes

In central London townhouses and mews homes, floors and staircases are usually designed alongside joinery, so colour matching is part of the brief from the start. A dark smoked or stained oak chevron can be tuned to bespoke doors, cabinets and furniture, and the staircase then has to follow exactly. Making the treads and risers ourselves, in the same finish as the parquet, avoids two suppliers producing slightly different tones.

For flats and mansion blocks, leases commonly require an acoustic underlay under wood floors, so we confirm the building's requirements before specifying the build-up. Hoff Parquet delivers to London and sends its own installation team. Architects, designers and homeowners can order finish samples or arrange a colour match before committing to the full order, so the floor, stairs and joinery are agreed together.

Questions about this project

Can chevron parquet be colour-matched to existing doors and furniture?

Often yes. We can prepare finish samples on the same oak and adjust the smoke, stain or oil until it sits with your joinery. On this central London project the Dark Arsenic 2 chevron and the stair treads were matched to the furniture and doors.

Do you make solid oak stair treads to match parquet in London?

Yes. We produce bespoke solid oak treads and risers to measure, finished to match the parquet, and deliver them to London along with the flooring. Our fitters can install them at the same time as the floor, or your joiner can fit them.
