If consent drawings specify tiles, vinyl, or similar materials, any substitution with laminate, SPC, wood, or other flooring requires a Minor Variation approved by Council before installation.
Installation without approval will create a mismatch with the consented drawings, and Council may reject the product at inspection regardless of compliance documents.
Failure to obtain approval may result in inspection failure, delays, or added costs. Dismiss
Antico Engineered handcrafted real wood oak flooring nz,
Antique charm meets modern living in this timeless oak flooring. Antico 06 captures the quiet elegance of nature’s craftsmanship — each plank marked with gentle cracks and knots that speak of authenticity and warmth. Every detail is refined through careful hand-finishing, allowing the natural patterns of oak to unfold with understated grace.
Engineered oak flooring ensures both visual beauty and structural performance. The genuine oak surface layer preserves the tactile richness of real wood, while the multi-layered base provides superior stability and resistance to movement, adapting perfectly to both residential and commercial spaces.
The natural golden hue of the oak brings a welcoming light to any interior. Whether paired with contemporary architecture or classic decor, its soft tone creates a harmonious balance between sophistication and comfort. Through an entirely hand-crafted process — from brushing and sanding to the final polish — the surface attains a silky texture that enhances the connection between nature and design.
Installation using the glue-down method delivers long-term stability and minimizes expansion or contraction caused by changing environments. The precision Tongue & Groove system ensures a seamless fit between boards, preventing vertical shifting and preserving the integrity of the surface.
For open-plan layouts or spacious rooms, the wide-plank format adds a sense of continuity and natural grandeur — a perfect reflection of the enduring beauty of oak in its purest form.

“It is perfect in imperfection.”
Antico Pavimenti in Legno is a hand-crafted European oak flooring collection that blends modern refinement with rustic charm. Each plank carries its own character — distinctive, natural, and full of life.
Every artisan at Antico reads the language of wood — its grains, textures, and stories — treating every crack and knot as a feature of authenticity rather than a flaw. From the initial design sketch to the final hand-brushed surface, each board is carefully sculpted, sanded, and finished to reveal the unique character of natural oak.
Italian artistry in flooring
White oak, subtle yet full of life, embodies the quiet refinement of Italian craftsmanship. Each plank tells a story — delicate cracks and graceful knots trace the wood’s journey through time, adding depth and authenticity to its natural charm. Finished with natural wax oil, the surface retains the genuine texture of oak while enhancing its soft golden warmth. Light dances gently across the grain, revealing a timeless balance between simplicity and sophistication. This is flooring as poetry in motion — where craftsmanship and nature coexist in perfect harmony, transforming every step into a calm, tactile encounter with beauty.
