American lifestyle meets purist elegance

To emphasise the timeless beauty of the ambience, which is due not least to the extra-high ceilings, numerous XXL window fronts and an unobtrusive colour concept, attention was also paid to the finest quality flooring with that certain something: Solid American White Oak flooring was laid throughout the property. For optimum long-term surface protection, the floors were treated with natural-oil-and-wax-based Osmo Hartwachs-Öl in the colour 3041 Natural With its raw wood look, the floor not only radiates a uniquely natural charm, but also emphasises the modern design elements and accentuates the bright, open rooms.

Choosing solid wood flooring has many tangible benefits. On the one hand, of course, there is the attractive appearance and durability, as well as the fact that solid wood floors can be sanded down several times and given a new colour finish when renovating, which makes them particularly sustainable and versatile. On the other hand, a wooden floor is also an ideal choice in terms of healthy living because wood does not give off any harmful emissions, has moisture-regulating properties and has a positive effect on the overall indoor climate.

A surface treatment with an Osmo Hartwachs-Öl makes it resistant to daily wear and tear, liquids, dirt, scratches and abrasion and contains no preservatives, aromatic compounds or biocides.

The oil penetrates the wood deeply and protects it from the inside, while the wax forms an elastic, microporous surface on the outside and enhances the natural grain. This allows the wood to continue to breathe as well as absorb and release moisture in the room. Osmo Hartwachs-Öl is also resistant to saliva and perspiration, absolutely safe when dry, and tested and certified as a building product in accordance with the guidelines of the DiBT.

All these advantages made Osmo the first choice for the experienced builders at Deffenbaugh Homes and the flooring professionals from Dakota Floors, who already relied on the top performance of various Osmo products in other projects and installed the high-quality wood flooring in the property.

American White Oak is a heavy and durable wood that is popular in interior design due to its robustness and durability.

The subtle grain creates an attractive floor covering that is suitable for any interior design style thanks to its timeless colour scheme. The durable solid wood flooring was not only laid in the inviting entrance hall, the impressive living room and open-plan kitchen with adjoining dining room, but also in most of the other rooms such as the study, the bedroom, the dressing room and the hobby room with its golf simulator.
