Parquet is a versatile choice that combines aesthetics, comfort and warmth, but it is not always easy to understand if it is the best solution for each room in the house. In this guide, we explore the characteristics of parquet in the kitchen, bathroom and other specific contexts, with practical advice and references to collections of the brands you find at TaniniHome, such as Itlas, Corà, Donati Legnami and Tavar .
Parquet in the Kitchen: Refined and Practical with the Right Precautions
Pros : Parquet in the kitchen creates a welcoming and sophisticated atmosphere, enhancing modern and traditional spaces. Thanks to new technologies, wooden floors can be treated to resist stains and humidity.
Cons : This space is subject to frequent splashes and impacts. To overcome this, choose hardwoods such as oak or teak and durable finishes.
Example : The Legni del Doge collection by Itlas offers two-layer parquet with resistant finishes and ease of installation, ideal for dynamic environments such as the kitchen.
Parquet in the Bathroom: Natural Warmth with the Right Protection
Pros : Parquet makes the bathroom a warm and welcoming place, perfect for creating a small oasis of relaxation.
Cons : Humidity is the main risk for wood. This is why it is important to choose tropical species or water-resistant woods, such as teak and iroko, and install it with professional techniques.
Example : The Memento line by Tavar , made with reclaimed wood, combines natural aesthetics and resistance, perfect even for spaces where the parquet is exposed to stress.
Parquet in Living Room and Living Areas: Timeless Elegance
Pros : The living room is the ideal environment to enhance the natural beauty of parquet. The wide planks and opaque finishes create a visual effect of great impact, adapting to both modern and traditional styles.
Tip : Opt for brushed finishes or bold knots for a natural look.
Example : The Miraggio collection by Corà , designed by Pininfarina, offers sophisticated design solutions with finishes that add elegance and dynamism.
Parquet in Bedrooms: Comfort and Warmth
Pros : Wood is the perfect flooring for bedrooms, thanks to its ability to retain heat and provide a comfortable feeling underfoot.
Tip : For a uniform aesthetic result, choose light woods such as oak or beech .
Example : Donati Legnami's Bioparquet, free from chemical treatments, is ideal for creating a healthy and comfortable environment, especially for those looking for eco-friendly solutions.
Parquet and Underfloor Heating: Perfect Compatibility
Parquet can be used with underfloor heating systems, provided that stable materials with low thermal resistance are chosen.
Example : The PreMass collection by Tavar is designed to ensure stability and optimal performance even with underfloor heating, thanks to its high-quality multi-layer layer.
How to Choose the Right Parquet?
Wood Type : Hardwoods like oak are ideal for high-traffic environments, while tropical woods are perfect for humid environments.
Finish : Matte for a natural look, glossy for elegant environments, oiled for a warm feel.
Stability : Multilayer parquet offers greater resistance to expansion, particularly suitable for humid environments or those with underfloor heating.
Maintenance : Avoid excess water when cleaning and use specific products for wood.
