🛠️ Project Spotlight: A Bold, Classic Twist in Carlisle 🏡
This week at C & J Flooring, we took a step back from the usual — and it’s safe to say, we’re loving the results.
While herringbone and wood-effect designs have become staples in modern homes, sometimes it’s refreshing to shake things up. That’s exactly what happened with our latest project in Carlisle.
🎯 The Brief?
Our client wanted something with character — timeless, bold, and a little different from the trends we usually see. The answer: a classic black and white chequerboard floor, fitted on the diagonal.
📐 The Result?
A truly striking finish that brings a retro charm with a modern edge. Fitting the pattern on the diagonal added a fresh twist, creating movement and making the space feel more dynamic and open.
✨ Why We Love It:
- A nod to vintage interiors with a clean, contemporary feel
- Works beautifully in kitchens, hallways, and utility rooms
- Durable, easy to maintain, and full of personality
It’s projects like this that remind us how flooring can completely transform a space — not just in look, but in atmosphere.
Whether you’re after a modern aesthetic or something with a bit of nostalgic flair, we’re here to help bring your vision to life.
