Project Description

This award winning cobble timber floor was made from recycled hardwood beams formed into cobbles, for the authentic French look for the Domaine Thomson Wines cellar door.

Winner of the 2022 ATFA Solid Recycled Floor of the Year, Wanaka Wood Floors completed this cobble floor, as well as the two herringbone floors with plank borders in the adjacent two rooms. The combination of the cobbles flanked by the parquet rooms makes a stunning aesthetic in this wine tasting hub.

Chosen from a record number of entries from timber flooring specialists in Australia and New Zealand, from 2019 to 2022, this floor was a favourite of many across all categories. The Australasian Timber Floor Association is the timber floor trade industry group across both countries.

Wanaka Wood Floors worked with construction company, Breen Construction, on this project.

This project also won the 2021 NZIA Southern Architecture Awards, sharing the Commercial Architecture win with two other local projects.

Wanaka Wood Floors specialise in bespoke wood floors, parquet, recycled and native timber floors. In Wanaka for over twenty years, they supply, install and refurbish site-finished and pre-finished engineered and solid timber floors.
