Bonjour Bonjour , in this vidéo Gregory and Suzanna from Maisons Gheerbrant are laying laminate flooring in diagonal.
The room is 4 meters wide by 8 meters long , and so by laying the floor in diagonal , we trick the mind of the visitor.
Indeed , a more traditional design of laying in the length or the width of the room , would have accentuated a corridor effect.
By laying the flooring in diagonal the room appears wider than it really is and not as long as it really is :)
The room does have a few challenges to overcome , but nothing really out of the ordinary :
- A visit or access hatch at the entrance door for the main water and gas pipes,
- The staircase in the middle of the room leading to the upper floors bedrooms,
- And the need to have the flooring reach the level of the kitchen floor for a smooth transition from the living room to the kitchen.
Other infos and details :
+ Before laying the laminate , we have put a layer of under flooring, that’s why we start on a green surface. The under floor helps with capturing moist and does act as sound proofing. It was also the best way of reaching the kitchen floor level efficiently and cost effectively;)
+ We did split the tasks between the two of us , Gregory was measuring and laying , Suzanna was cutting with Ryobi jigsaw.
+ Gregory started with the most tedious and difficult task with the entrance corner and creating the visit hatch , once that done everything went well and swiftly.
+ The laminate flooring with a dark old wood decorative layer was chosen to contrast with the white walls while bringing warmth to the room.
Among the dark wood colored floor on offer , we chose the one that complimented best the bare brick wall (feature wall of that room) !
+ For this project (as for all the others) we used Ryobi One+ tools WITHOUT sponsoring!!
