Luxury Housing Trends & Home Improvement Ideas

Wood is a handsome flooring material, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a hardwood floor that isn’t attractive, but if you want to go for something truly unique, you might try something beyond simple planks or boards.

These parquet blocks from LV Wood Floors are made from exotic Jatoba wood. Adding to the uniqueness is the leather inset into each square block.

The leather inserts are one of many options the company offers–you can have your parquet flooring customized to feature multiple species of wood in each block, marble inserts, or other materials. The company also offers a line of flooring that uses reclaimed woods (everything from timbers from old buildings to horse fencing), so browse their site for ideas for your home.
