About Esplanade

Esplanade is a smoked French oak in deep espresso brown with intermittent grey, where broad wire brushing and soft white traces bring out the grain. Dark yet lively, it gives a room contrast and depth. Esplanade suits coastal houses, city homes and modern rooms that call for a dark, rich floor with real character.

Natural Beauty

Espresso brown with intermittent grey; broad wire brushing picks out the European French Oak grain.

Structured. Sustainable.

13/16″ thick with a 6mm European French Oak wear layer. Para Wood core blocks laid perpendicular to the oak's grain: the crossed grains restrain each other, so the plank moves less.

Hand Applied Finishing

Smoked and finished with reactive stains, then sealed with a hard UV-cured oil or a matte Bona Naturale finish.
