Checkerboard Foyer FloorHide CaptionShow CaptionThis foyer is highlighted by a checkerboard patterned floor in maple and walnut shades.

Show-Stopping Entry

Talk about making a great first impression! At first glance, this parquet floor looks like tile, but it's actually made up of alternating strips of maple and walnut. Each "tile" measures 13" x 13" and is composed of four strips of hardwood laid side by side. Installing this floor in the traditional parquet method was a painstaking process but the high-end look is certainly worth the trouble.
