It need not be said, but working with wood when it comes to designing your home interiors can be a challenge. This material requires a significant amount of maintenance, which is why going for wood-look finishes without the drawbacks is one of the best choices you can make. Featuring a darker tone compared to the 2100P2, the A1207 is also another Scandinavian-transforming tile.

Dealing with richer-toned wood-look tiles may not initially seem to be a great choice since Nordic designs are all about cool tones and lightness. But on the contrary, the darker tones offer the best contrast, especially for 1950’s Scandinavian-appropriate furniture, like egg chairs for the living room, or some stylized side tables.

Sometimes, achieving the Scandinavian style doesn’t require you to necessarily stick to the conventions and the rules surrounding this style. Simply going for Scandinavian inspirations in your interiors is also a smart choice, especially if you want to retain already-existing architectural decisions of a room.

This tile is also perfect for wall applications, particularly for your kitchen space. The cool-look inherent in gray colors make this wall tile fit together with higher-leveled kitchen furniture such as tables and high stools. As with any wood-look tile, make sure the room is garnering sufficient natural lighting for truly eye-popping, yet relaxing visuals.
