Private house equipped with mafi Tiger Oak

Posted: August 23rd, 2010 | Author: koan | Filed under: private houses | Tags: , , , , , | 2 Comments »

This private house in Switzerland is equipped with our mafi Tiger Oak black color filler brushed natural oil running through all rooms. The installer made a special solution to protect the area in front of the fireplace. The floor is protect with a glass slab that is not higher but on the same level as the wood. This is a very neat solution to have one level floor protected with glass without getting hurt walking barefoot.

Something about the technical side of this perfect variant.

The wood plank is a 3-layer construction, the backing and the top layer consist of the same type of wood. Depending on the wood type the layers are approx. 4 – 5 mm thick. The middle layer of conifer wood is glued diagonally, guaranteeing excellent shape retention. Because of this 3-layer construction is it possible to mill the floor on the back side a little to reduce the thickness of the floor exactly like thickness off the glass. Then you can lay the glass on the floor and the glass surface has the same height as the  rest of the wooden floor. This is a perfect variant to see the floor also in front of the fire place and the planks running through in one line.
