I like this one, it looks like a woven basket. If you made it the focal point of the room, it would be awsome.

I don’t like them either. Luckily never had them, but my mom grew up in apartment with parquet floors, covered by wall to wall carpet to protect them. Every christmas grandma forced them to remove all furniture, roll the carpet, scrub the parquet floor clean, and put everything back. Grandma found them sooo precious and only got to see them once a year during cleaning. Total nonsense but common practice in my country.

My father lives in an apartment that was converted into an illegal gambling den in the 1920s. There's a secret entrance to his apartment from behind the elevator, and the parquet floor has a round scar from where the roulette table used to be.

I hate it too, but the restoration is fantastic.

I laid wood flooring for 20 years. Very few people like parquet flooring.

I don’t either.

Whatever you do, don't look down!

They remind me of my school gym from 30+ years ago 😕

Not just you. The texture visually leaves no room for anything else. I feel like all you can add is a boring sofa to balance it out.

Remember that it will probably have a rug covering a good chunk, plus furniture, so in the end it’s not so visually intense. Just small areas of interest between the other items in the room.

It's not just you.

I like either plain hardwood floors or floors where the decorative elements are just on the border.

I like the wood, but I’d rather see it in the “regular” layout. Not the chevron or herringbone pattern (or whatever it’s called). I want to know how this floor got so completely dirty (as in everywhere, even all the way to the walls)!

I don't like it either. It's killing me because I have good solid hardwood parquet in my home, it would be blasphemy to change it to laminated boards, and I sure don't have the kind of money to buy hardwood shiplap flooring. But I hate it so much!

Wish the kit homes here were similar price and quality as they were

In Australia, in the very early days they did a similar thing. The governors or whoever had money, would order one from England and it would be transported by boat. It was then reassembled by local builders/convicts. One of my ancestors was the builder that put together governor Cook's cottage in Melbourne. It has since been moved to the Fitzroy Gardens and you can go and tour it. Also many Australian houses had wrought iron decorations on them, because that was what was used to weigh the ships that had transported animals etc to England down on their return journey.

The Sears Houses are very cool, much nicer than the cookie cutter houses that came along after WWII during the Baby Boom. Here is a Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sears_Modern_Homes

There is one in St Augustine FL first time I had seen one. Small not as elaborate as this one. I'm old enough to remember Sears catalog as a child but I certainly wasn't looking for a house!

Yep, the DKW RT 125 engine design was one of the war reparations which really helped out the European post-war small-bike market. They were extremely simple and their power-to-weight ratio was amazing. The design was used in the BSA Bantam, the Harley Hummer, and Yamaha used a design based on the Deek to create a big lineup of fun little street bikes in the 1960s.

How précise

your collection goes beyond language

My mother in law had my husband's collection of 1950s comics bound! Apparantly it was supposed to be a surprise for him....Destroyed them all.
