The most long-lasting piece of interior furnishings

A floor is not only the base for all living and interior concepts, it is also the most long-lasting piece of interior furnishings. People are changing for example their furniture or even the color of the walls quiet frequently – a floor stays as the foundation of each room. Therefore, of course quality, design and composability are important characteristics of mafi natural wooden floors.

Explicit architectural and interior concepts are following the trend to mix-up modern design with natural wooden material. mafi goes one step further by offering 100% natural wooden floors  but combined with subtle and reserved design elements like hand finished cracks filled with different colors . This is also part of mafis philosophy not to hide the natural characteristics of the wood but to celebrate it by highlighting knots and cracks intentionally.

Thanks to the white oiled surface there a many different possibilities to combine this mafi Coral Oak white with other colorful elements. This interesting project attends with colorful highlights in green and pink on the walls. The brushed surface invites to walk barefoot on it to feel the natural texture of our mafi floors.
