Wheat is a light warm golden-tan, brighter than Oak Natural and warmer than Porcelain, sitting in the gap between the pale and the golden ends of the Easi-Plank Herringbone range. It is the colour to choose when you want a...

Porcelain is the palest colour in the Easi-Plank Herringbone range: a warm cream-greige, lighter than Pewter and with warmth where Pewter is cool. That warmth is what makes it the easier of the two pale options to live with: it...

Red Stone is the darkest and most characterful colour in the Easi-Plank Herringbone range: a mid-dark reddish brown with grey smoked through it, so the red never becomes orange. It is the closest thing here to a traditional stained parquetry...

Grey Stone is the cool grey of the Easi-Plank Herringbone range: a mid tone with clear striation running through each block and enough contrast to keep the pattern legible from standing height. Grey and herringbone is a combination that can...

Barnside is a soft mid greige-brown with gentle grain and low plank-to-plank contrast: the most restrained colour in the Easi-Plank Herringbone range, and the one that lets the pattern do the work. That matters more in herringbone than in any...

Classic Spotted Gum is the richest colour in the Easi-Plank Herringbone range: a golden amber with dark grain streaking that carries the warmth and variation of the species. In herringbone it reads as a genuinely traditional parquetry floor, the kind...

Natural Blackbutt is the pale golden option in the Easi-Plank Herringbone range: a light board with the soft olive cast that makes blackbutt read as Australian rather than generic oak. It is the brightest colour here, and in herringbone that...

Oak Natural is the straightforward warm oak of the Easi-Plank Herringbone range: a mid golden-tan with even grain and no stain pulling it grey or red. It is the most conventional colour here and, for a herringbone floor, often the...

Natural on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board: the same light warm tan-beige oak with open knots and honest grain movement as the 12mm version. It is the most characterful of the pale colours in the range, and the knots...

Wolf Grey on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board. As on the 12mm, it is warmer than the name implies: a mid greige-taupe with a clear brown undertone and visible grain, rather than the cool grey most people picture. That...

Spotted Gum on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board: the same mid warm brown with a reddish cast and strong striping through the grain as the 12mm version. It is a fair reading of the species, which runs honey through...

Delta Sand on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board. As on the 12mm, the name misleads: this is a pale cool grey-white with a faint lilac cast, not the warm sandy tone it suggests. It is one of the coolest...

Blackbutt on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board: the same light warm golden-tan with a soft, even grain as the 12mm version, and the same restrained reading of the species that makes it more convincing than the heavily saturated golden-ambers...

Bedrock on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board: the same rich mid-dark warm brown as the 12mm version, with real depth in the grain and strong tonal movement from plank to plank. The decor is identical; the difference is the...

This is Alpine Mist on the 8mm Oakleaf HD Plus board: the same light warm blonde-beige oak as the 12mm version, with the same soft grain movement and gentle sandy cast. The decor is identical; what changes is the board...

Windsor is the cool pale in the Preference Floors Oakleaf HD Plus range: a soft greige-taupe with grey running through the grain and low, even contrast between planks. It is the board to choose when the room is already warm...

Bellmore Oak is a light warm blonde-tan: brighter and cleaner than Hampton Oak, with the same open knots but less depth of colour, so it lifts a room rather than warming it up. It sits in the useful middle of...

Hampton Oak is the warmest of the mid-tone boards in the Preference Floors Oakleaf HD Plus range: a honey-tan oak with clear grain, open knots and enough tonal movement between planks to carry a large floor without looking repetitive. It...
