At this home in Allamanda Grove, designed by Edmundng Architects, custom Champaca flooring is laid in a diagonal-end staggered plank arrangement. The layout creates a subtle rhythm underfoot, drawing the eye across the space and highlighting the warmth and character of the timber.

Scope of work

We supplied and installed custom Champaca flooring and matching timber stairs, cutting each plank end on the diagonal to achieve the staggered pattern.

Why Champaca for a custom flooring pattern

A timber floor has to handle daily foot traffic and Singapore's humidity while keeping its colour and finish, so stability and a durable surface matter as much as the look. Stairs take concentrated wear on every tread and nosing, so they need a hard-wearing surface and a finish that matches the surrounding floor. Champaca is compound solid wood flooring: a hardwood wear layer over a cross-laminated teak core treated against termites and mould. It expands only 0.3–0.4 mm with humidity, far less than solid timber.

Care and maintenance

Champaca's solvent-free matt lacquer only needs regular sweeping and a lightly damp mop, and the floor can be professionally refinished when it eventually wears. Timber refinishing and OSMO oils are available for when a surface needs renewing.
