Which Hana finish suits a Scandinavian look?

A pale, blond oak. Cloud Oak and Ethereal Oak give the bright, airy, light-wood feeling that defines a Scandinavian room. Our Scandinavian flooring guide walks through the look in full.

What flooring works for a Japandi home?

A warm, natural honey-toned oak such as Sierra Oak or Hazel Oak, which grounds the calm, pared-back Japandi style without feeling cold or stark. See our Japandi flooring guide for the whole picture.

Can any finish be laid in a herringbone pattern?

The wood finishes can. Laying them in a herringbone gives a more classic, characterful parquet look, while straight planks read calmer and more contemporary. Our herringbone guide shows the difference.

How do I match my flooring to my furniture and style?

Start from the floor tone, since it is the biggest surface, then build the room around it: pale oak for a light Scandinavian scheme, warm oak for a natural Japandi one, micro-cement for a minimalist one. Try a finish in your own room with the flooring visualiser before you commit.

Guide · Choosing

Which interior style suits your floor?

Q: Does the flooring set the interior style of a room?

It goes a long way to it. The floor is the largest surface in a room, so its tone quietly steers the whole look: a pale blond oak leans Scandinavian, a warm honey oak leans Japandi, and a seamless micro-cement leans minimalist. It is not the only factor, but it is the best place to start.

Your floor sets the tone of a room more than almost anything else in it, so it is worth choosing with the whole look in mind. Before you match a Hana Flooring finish to your furniture, it helps to know which interior style each finish naturally belongs to. Tap the sample you are drawn to below, and see the look it creates.

Which interior style suits your floor?

A floor is the biggest single surface in a room, so its colour and tone quietly decide which interior style the space wants to become. A pale blond oak leans Scandinavian; a warm honey oak leans Japandi; a seamless micro-cement leans minimalist. Our SPC (stone polymer composite) vinyl comes in all of those tones, so the finish you love is a good place to start.

Love the parquet look? Any of the wood finishes can be laid in herringbone for a more classic room.

The match is a guide, not a rule. A finish can cross styles depending on your walls, light and furniture, so treat the result as a direction to explore rather than a verdict.

The four looks, and the floors that make them

Most Singapore homes settle into one of a few looks, and each has a natural floor tone.

Scandinavian: bright and airy, built on a pale, blond oak like Cloud or Ethereal. See our guide to a Scandinavian floor.
Japandi: warm, calm and natural, grounded by a honey-toned oak like Sierra or Hazel. See our guide to Japandi flooring.
Warm minimalist: seamless and contemporary, in a soft micro-cement like Mist, Dune or Clay. See our guide to a warm minimalist floor.
Modern and contemporary: deeper and more dramatic, in a rich walnut or a charcoal stone like Eclipse or Graphite. See how finishes read across a room.

Same floor, a different pattern

Tone sets the style, but the way a floor is laid shifts the feeling again. The same oak reads calm and classic in straight planks, or warmer and more characterful in a herringbone. If the parquet look appeals, our guide to herringbone vinyl flooring shows how it changes a room, and flooring patterns, look and feel covers straight, herringbone and large stone tiles side by side.
