I love our wood floors!!!!

I've always loved wood floors. Our choice of wood is due to close friends, Monica & Paolo, who laid African Iroko hardwood in their apartment in Milan and we loved it on sight! It starts out slightly blonde with red hints, but darkens as the light touches it over time to a deep reddish-brown (similar to a cross between Mahogany & Doussie). Our entire ground floor has been laid with African Iroko hardwood and already we can see changes in the colour.

was applied)
