Parquet flooring in a dark colour  

Dark parquet colours, such as red parquet or mahogany parquet give a modern touch to your room. By the way, dark parquet flooring matches perfectly with an industrial style.

Tip:

Lay dark parquet flooring in English form or brick bond (the planks are of equal width but different lengths, and are laid in rows) to create the illusion of a bigger room.
