LVT Laying patterns

Unlocking the world of flooring laying patterns

In flooring, the arrangement of planks or tiles, known as the laying pattern, allows you to craft unique designs and imbue your commercial space with character and style. While a straightforward straight-lay plank or uniform tile floor is an option, various creative patterns are available. These choices enable you to make a distinctive statement in your architectural, design, or building project.
