Luminous and even-tempered — light honey that sits exactly in the middle of the collection.

WHAT THIS FLOOR ACTUALLY IS

Handles everyday spills — kitchens and dry interiors, detailed correctly
Water-resistant for everyday use. Not a waterproofing system. Not a flood-proof claim. Clean with a damp mop; remove free water promptly.
Warm underfoot — ready for underfloor heating
Compatible with underfloor heating — declared for the product family, not measured by us per batch. The floor floats, so it follows the heat without being fixed to the screed.
Made for daily life — chairs, shoes, pets
Real long planks — a calmer, continuous floor
Full 1.83 m boards with a fine four-sided micro-bevel — our declared joint.
Ultra-matte — reads as real floor, never plastic

Good to know Think twice if you want boards that visibly differ — this one holds an even, quiet field.

CHOOSING · IS THIS THE RIGHT FLOOR

ARCHITECTURAL POSITION

1140-09 sits in the middle of the collection on both counts — mid-light, moderately warm — which is why it is one of the easier grounds to place. It reads as light honey under clear Mediterranean daylight, and it does not push a scheme in either direction. Whitewash, terracotta and one blue tile is the palette it was drawn for.

Where it works

  • Living, dining, bedrooms and dry interior circulation
  • Bright rooms with clear, direct daylight
  • Mediterranean schemes: whitewash, terracotta, wrought iron
  • Interiors that want warmth without a dark or heavy floor

Where not to oversell it

Not for wet areas, standing water or as a ceramic replacement, and not solid timber. It is not the ground for a strictly cool, mineral scheme, and it is neither the darkest nor the quietest floor we make — if either extreme is what you are after, this is the wrong one.

Best beside

  • Whitewash and lime render
  • Unglazed terracotta
  • Wrought-iron black
  • One tile-blue note
  • Undyed linen and matte cotton

Avoid beside

  • Gloss and varnished sheen
  • Heavy cool grey stone
  • Orange-toned oak furniture
  • Beach-club and resort props
  • High-chroma accent walls

If the room leans that way, the truly distant floors: Sylt 1140-51 · Helsinki 1994-05 · Havana 2410.

Some floors argue with the room. This one agrees with it.

BEFORE YOU ASK · WHAT A QUOTE HERE MEANS

What it includes

A quote is itemised line by line — boards for your area, edge and threshold profiles, and anything else the job needs. Nothing bundled, nothing assumed.

How it arrives

Send the rooms and their approximate area — by form or WhatsApp. The itemised quote comes back to you personally.

Why no public price list

A floor is priced from its specification: the model, the area, the condition of the existing base and the finishing details. A number published before those are known would be a guess — we don’t guess. Asking costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
