Flagstaff 4

A master bedroom takes a dark floor better than most rooms, and Flagstaff 4 is a tuscan coffee brown that sits near merbau. Eighteen random faces is the highest count in this size, so even a large bedroom and its walk in wardrobe read as one continuous floor with no pattern to spot. The satin texture is lightly textured, which matters on a dark tile because it breaks up reflected light and hides fine dust better than a smooth face would. One box holds five planks of 200 x 1000 mm, covers 1.00 m2 and weighs 20 kg. Sweep it weekly and it stays even.

• Does Flagstaff 4 cope with Malaysian humidity?

  Yes. Flagstaff 4 is glazed ceramic with 6 to 8 percent water absorption, so humid months do not make it swell, cup or warp the way timber and laminate can.

• How many boxes of Flagstaff 4 for a 5 x 6 m living and dining area?

  A 5 x 6 m room is 30 m². With 10 percent extra for cutting, that is 33 boxes, since each box of 5 planks (20 x 100 cm) covers 1.00 m² and weighs about 20 kg.

• Which rooms in a condo or landed house suit Flagstaff 4?
