If you enjoy animal print and find cheetah overdone, this this THIS is what you could chose. The antelope print pattern is speckled with varied sizes of white spots; like a surprise dusting of large snow flakes on caramel-coloured earth.

Zebra Hardwood Flooring

Zebra Hardwood Floor

New on my radar is a fantastic company; Preverco. Preverco has one of the most versatile product lines available allowing you to choose plank size, hardwood to engineered, and stains to suit all levels in your home. And this hardwood has made me super excited, check out the Zebra 5 3/16″ plank hardwood, it is outstanding! It is no wonder this product is winning the praise of fellow designers; this floor is HAUTE! The red oak flooring is striking with rich black graining, and a white all over stain.  Not for the faint of heart, this floor hits a high note with contemporary and fun-traditional design. Picture lots of black paired up with this! I am seeing a trend leaning toward getting back to grains, and why not with domestic, local wood. Well done Preverco.
