Parquet flooring, also known as parquetry, is a decorative timber flooring style that originated in Europe and has been admired for centuries. It’s created by arranging small timber pieces into intricate geometric patterns such as herringbone, chevron, and French panels.
Because it represents style, sophistication, and craftsmanship—a flooring solution that’s as durable as it is beautiful. At Thrust Floors, we’ve been shaping Sydney’s interiors with parquetry for decades, blending tradition with modern innovation to create floors that stand out and last for generations.
