FLOORING
Where Elegance Meets Practicality: Transform Your Hospitality Spaces With Project Floors
- TED TODD-
Ted Todd’ s expert team of specification consultants provided tailored wood flooring recommendations, leading IBDP to choose Bourne from Ted Todd’ s Project collection. Bourne plays a strong supporting role in Zhima’ s striking design, where grandeur, ambience and intimacy combine to create a dining experience that is not only Instagram-worthy, but one which is truly unforgettable, sophisticated and inviting.
Bourne’ s deep tones, both dark and warm, accentuate the knots, colour variation and occasional sap that are the hallmarks of this nature grade European Oak floor, and the considerable plank width( 190mm) creates a broad canvas upon which to display these alluring characteristics. 14mm thick with a 3mm wear layer, Bourne offers impressive durability. A hardened oil finish that combines a natural look with a subtle sheen, augments that durability while providing highly effective splash-resistance. FSC certification, the environmental gold standard of the timber industry, was the icing on the cake( or‘ the flowers on the brocade’, to use the equivalent Chinese expression).
When the award-winning, Glasgow-based interior design practice IBDP( Interiors by Dominic Paul) were asked to design the latest high-concept restaurant from the Hunky Dory Group, the result was Zhima, a masterful blend of contemporary luxury and traditional Chinese influences.
Every aspect of the design, from the bespoke artwork and statement lighting to the carefully curated furniture, showcases meticulous attention to detail, creating a cohesive and visually stunning dining experience.
This attention to detail extended, of course, to the choice of floor. The right floor can dramatically impact the feel and functionality of the space. In a restaurant environment, special attention must be paid to the durability and splash resistance of the floor, as well as practicalities with regard to ongoing maintenance.
Ted Todd now welcomes six brand new extra wide floors to their existing Project collection, available for the first time in 220mm wide planks with a 20mm thickness, and generous 6mm wear layer offering unbeatable construction, and greater choice for commercial projects without a significant increase in cost.
These robust engineered floors are now available across popular Project designs Almond, Brindle, Caramel, Calcio, Petworth and Tattenhall- all with the same hardened oil finish as Bourne for added longevity ensuring hospitality interior projects will stand the test of time after heavy footfall and inevitable splashes and spills.
