SAN DIEGO, August 18, 2010—DuChateau Floors, maker of luxury, FSC-certified, wide-planked European hardwood floors, puts a modern twist on vintage-style flooring with the Riverstone collection. An evolution of hand-sculpted hardwood floors, Riverstone blends beautifully with interiors old and new. Natural distressing and raised knots give the floors a raw and organic contour that feels comforting beneath the feet.
“Some of the most impactful spaces blend modern and rustic elements,” says Misael Tagle, CEO and co-founder of DuChateau Floors. “Combing raw textures, natural materials and old with new creates interiors that are comforting, reassuring and surprisingly accessible.”
The 7-7/16-inch-wide planks are 72 inches long and 5/8-inch thick. Made of FSC-certified woods, Riverstone come in five finishes: Arno, Danube, Rhine, Seine and Thames. DuChateau Floors uses artistic methods perfected in Holland combined with today’s state-of-the-art technology to create its floors. Each plank is treated with natural, zero-VOC hard wax oil for a beautiful and durable matte finish. The FSC-certified floors qualify for LEED credits. Popular moldings, including a Stair Nose, T-mold, Reducer and a Baby Threshold, and custom pieces like stair treads, risers and crown moldings, allow you to complete the installation with impeccable fit and finish.
