i really love black herringbone.
we're installing a new kitchen floor--i wonder if laying the new wood in a herringbone pattern would define the space in a cool way--or if it would just make the space feel chaotic...
in other flooring news: we (and by we i actually mean a pretty cool dude) patched our hardwood floors a few weeks ago! though the holes made the space feel open and airy--especially if you wanted to throw, say, a lego or your brother down into the basement. obviously, we rushings were living on borrowed, injury-free time.
our floor guy sealed, but did not refinish, the new wood. it's looks kinda wonky now, but i believe it was the right decision. we have more projects coming down the pipeline on our main level and we'll have the entire floor refinished at once so that everything matches perfectly...
plus we spy with our little eyes another wall that needs to go... gonna have to dust off my demo man again!
