Parquetry
Herringbone, Chevron & Versailles Patterns in Raw or Prefinished Timber
Add timeless elegance and architectural detail to your space with Armalux’s bespoke parquetry flooring. Whether you love the symmetry of herringbone, the bold lines of chevron, or the grandeur of Versailles panels, our team brings heritage-inspired craftsmanship into contemporary homes and commercial spaces.
Design Meets Craftsmanship
Parquetry is more than flooring – it’s a statement. Each piece is laid with precision to create intricate geometric patterns that turn your floor into a work of art. We work with both raw timber (for site-sanding and custom finishing) and prefinished boards (for faster installation with minimal disruption).
Popular patterns include:
- Herringbone
A classic European layout that never goes out of style. Herringbone parquetry adds dynamic movement and texture, making it ideal for both contemporary and traditional interiors. Each board is laid in a staggered zigzag formation that adds visual depth to open-plan spaces, hallways, or grand living areas.
- Chevron
With its clean lines and angled joins, chevron parquetry creates a sophisticated V-shaped pattern that is symmetrical and striking. Unlike herringbone, each piece is cut precisely to form perfect angles, giving a sharper, more structured aesthetic.
- Custom & Versailles
Looking for something truly unique? We also offer Versailles panels and other custom parquetry designs tailored to your vision. These make beautiful centrepieces for formal dining rooms, foyers, and feature floors.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is parquetry flooring?
Parquetry is a decorative style of timber flooring where small pieces of wood are arranged in geometric patterns, such as herringbone, chevron, or Versailles. It offers a high-end, elegant finish that suits both classic and modern interiors.
What timber options are available for parquetry?
We offer both raw timber, which can be sanded and stained on-site, and prefinished timber, which comes ready to install with a factory-applied finish. Species include Australian hardwoods and European oak.
What’s the difference between herringbone and chevron patterns?
- Herringbone: Rectangular boards laid in a staggered zigzag pattern. - Chevron: Boards are cut at an angle and meet in a continuous V shape. Both are stylish but create slightly different visual effects.
Is parquetry suitable for all rooms?
Yes, parquetry works beautifully in living rooms, hallways, dining areas, offices, and boutique commercial spaces. We recommend avoiding high-moisture zones like bathrooms or laundries.
How long does parquetry installation take?
A: It depends on the pattern complexity, room size, and whether you're using raw or prefinished timber. On average, installations take 3–7 days, including floor prep and finishing (if needed).
Can I see the designs before installation?
Absolutely. We welcome you to our Melbourne warehouse to view samples and pattern mock-ups. You can also take samples home to see how they work with your lighting and space.
