The look and feel of a timber floor are defined by its grain, texture, and finish. Vienna Woods offers a full range of European oak engineered flooring styles, each crafted to perform in New Zealand’s conditions while reflecting the precision and heritage of European manufacture.
Our flooring combines traditional craftsmanship with modern finishing systems to achieve surfaces that are durable, low-VOC, and architecturally refined. Choose from wide‑plank simplicity, geometric herringbone patterns, or tactile brushed textures to create a floor that enhances the character of any space.
FAQ
What’s the difference between oiled and lacquered finishes? Oiled finishes soak into the wood to create a natural, breathable surface that can be refreshed; lacquered finishes form a hard, protective coat that requires less frequent maintenance.
Which texture is best for high‑traffic spaces? Brushed or sawn textures provide extra traction and visual variation, making them well‑suited to busy homes and commercial environments.
Can I match plank and herringbone finishes? Yes — many Vienna Woods collections are offered in both formats using identical colour and finish systems for a seamless aesthetic across spaces.
Wide Plank Flooring
Celebrates scale and continuity. Wide boards reduce joint lines and emphasise grain flow, ideal for open‑plan homes or commercial interiors seeking visual calm and proportion.
Herringbone & Parquet
Inspired by European heritage. These patterns introduce geometry and craftsmanship, bringing structure and rhythm to feature rooms and heritage renovations.
Textured Oak
Brushed, planed, or sawn textures enhance the tactile quality of real wood while improving slip resistance — ideal for hospitality and high‑traffic areas.
Oiled Finish
Natural oil penetrates deep into the oak, highlighting its grain and enabling easy refinishing. The surface develops patina over time and can be rejuvenated with maintenance oil.
Lacquered Finish
A UV‑cured lacquer forms a durable protective layer requiring minimal maintenance. Modern ultra‑matt lacquers preserve the raw timber appearance while enhancing wear resistance.
Ultra Matt / Raw Effect
Combines the understated look of unfinished oak with the protection of advanced European coatings — a favourite for architects seeking authenticity with durability.
