Tuesday Terms: Chevron Floors

I met with a client yesterday who asked me about my design style. I told him that I am remaining a generalist in my 30s... but I do beach really well and have a reallll weakness for old world interior design. One of my favorite "old world" design elements are hardwood floors laid in a Chevron pattern. I love the chevron floors in this "ethnic chic" dream room!

A Chevron is a line or a stripe in the shape of a V or an inverted V. Here is a larger example of Chevron Hardwood Floors.



We might have to talk about wood species and grains next because that is such a BEAUTIFUL leached gray oak!
