Same kitchen. Seven floor colours. Seven completely different moods. Hardwood floor colour shapes a room before anything else does. It changes how light moves, how warm or crisp a kitchen feels, and how every other finish reads against it. Lighter tones keep it bright and airy, while deeper browns bring warmth, depth, and drama. The original floor is Norcia, a light and natural white oak. Which one would you live with?
