With the Design Edition Open Frameworks, star architect Hadi Teherani
combines different colours and shapes into a completely new approach to
floor design, whose creative boundaries are infinitely extended. Separate
components are individually combined and united into a single creative
entity. Classics of floor design undergo a new interpretation. The floors
created in this way are the creative expression of the highest individuality.
- Room for individuality Flooring rethought -
Timeless, natural, elegant and never boring – engineered wood
flooring inspires par excellence as a classic floor design. In
centre stage as a herringbone, it is considered a statement of
good taste. Its versatility is evident in the edition Open Frameworks:
planks made of oak in the contemporary colours OAK
white, OAK natural and OAK grey, each with two different
lengths and widths, present a new variety of design options.
The wealth of variants is topped off by coloured design elements,
the links, which were conceived especially for the
engineered wood flooring Edition. Three matching and three
contrasting colours each in four different sizes all contribute to
the infinite number of combination possibilities. From classic to
avant-garde – Open Frameworks shows individuality through
the inexhaustibility of interior design.
- A new stage for colour. Minimalism meets expression -
The Edition Open Frameworks engineered wood flooring
presents itself very discreetly at first glance: The calm oak in
the colours OAK white, OAK natural and OAK grey impresses
with its natural beauty. Installed on its own or in combination,
the engineered wood flooring displays a delicate, minimalist
effect. Cool elegance defines the room.
In combination with the coloured links, the engineered wood
flooring loses its restraint: in the expressive colours OAK
melon, OAK doveblue and OAK matcha, the individual links
used as design elements create exciting contrasts. The
multifaceted nature of the colour play, which has never been
seen in this form, opens up new design possibilities and now
gives the colour scheme a new stage on the floor as well.
- New spaciousness Formats with meaning-
Both available in two different lengths and widths and a
variety of possible combinations – the engineered wood
flooring Edition Open Frameworks creates a special interplay
solely through the use of different formats. The free combination
options of the individual planks make laying patterns
that play with dimensions possible. You can follow exact
geometric patterns or experience an avant-garde, arbitrary
chaos. In the interplay between the different formats individual
floors are created that give meaning to the shape of the
individual components. This creates a dynamic system in
which space is defined by formats.
- Infinite connections. Design elements for individual installation -
Specially for the engineered wood flooring Edition Open
Frameworks, a design element has been devised that infinitely
expands the limits of the installation options: The links
visually connect the planks together and are thus more than
just a technical component. They become a creative element
in three natural and three bright colours, as well as four
different sizes, matching the engineered wood flooring. The
links encourage you to work with the possibilities in a creative
way. Strict order and playful chaos, linearity and irregularity
– the individual play with shapes and colours results in
a wealth of design variety. The connecting element of the
links allows the emergence of infinity within the creation.
- Limitless individuality. A wealth of combinations in a new dimension-
The engineered wood flooring Edition Open Frameworks
redefines the limits of design options. In a customising game
between form and colour, the individual components can be
put together in a different way every time. There are no limits
to the ideas of combinatorics. Everything is possible. From
the classic herringbone pattern to interpretations of familiar
laying patterns to freely chosen combinations. The combination
of different colours and formats is just as appealing as
monochrome or pure-format laying patterns – you can
choose anything you like as an expression of your own
personality. This creates unfamiliar interplays that set new
standards.
Floors gain an unprecedented individuality.
