Interior with a soul

The kitchen is the heart of the home. It’s the place where the whole family meets every day to find a few moments to talk while eating meals together. It can often be the only opportunity to spend some time together. This is why the design of the kitchen is so important. The kitchen should be not only practical, but stylish as well. For this reason, more and more often kitchen floors are lined with natural wood, which is a good alternative to tiles. Wood is very versatile and works well in both classic and modern design styles. A wooden floor in the kitchen looks very impressive, smells pleasant and feels nice to the touch. You can even happily step on it barefoot while preparing a lazy weekend morning coffee.

Impregnating a wooden kitchen floor

Is wood flooring in the kitchen resistant to moisture? Yes, provided it is properly waterproofed. Natural floorboard can be preserved to reduce surface tension on the face of the boards. This will prevent them from being damaged by steam, and the water spilled on them will behave like mercury and can be easily collected. To ensure the best possible protection of the boards in the kitchen, the floor should be maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions (a maintenance product in living areas should be applied once every few months). An important fact to remember is that the best wood boards for the kitchen are those made from hardwood, such as ash. Another thing to keep in mind is that wooden floorboards in a kitchen need to be vacuumed.  More persistent dirt can be removed using a damp cloth and a suitable care product depending on the type of floor.

Kitchen floor - creates the interior

Choose your dream wooden floor from a wide range of available models. Consider features such as height, pattern, and finish to ensure a harmonious look for the room. Opt for elegance and durability – Barlinek white floorboards combine the natural beauty of wood with modern design, creating the perfect backdrop for any arrangement.

How to lay the floorboards in the kitchen?

The arrangement of the wooden flooring in the kitchen affects the shape of the room. The direction of the boards will have an impact on our perception of the interior. Ideally, the longer edge of the board should be laid parallel to the window. If there are several windows in the room, lay the boards along the direction of the sunlight. When installing floorboards in a kitchen where one of the walls is longer than 8 m, the boards should be laid along the longer side of the room.

How to install enginneered wood flooring?

Installing a wooden floor is relatively simple and, with proper preparation, you can do it yourself. Depending on the system you choose, the boards can be laid using the floating method or attached to the subfloor with adhesive. Before starting work, the surface should be thoroughly leveled and cleaned to ensure the stability and durability of the floor. Before beginning installation, please read the detailed instructions.

Kitchen flooring - creates the interior

Wooden floors, including floorboards, are not only a practical usable surface but also a key element of interior design, significantly influencing its character and aesthetics. Their main advantage is the natural beauty of wood, which brings warmth, elegance, and a timeless style to rooms. Furthermore, a wooden floor is durable and, with proper care, can last for many years, maintaining its unique appearance.


Various types of wooden floors are available, varying in wood species, finish, and the intensity and visibility of wood characteristics. Barlinek offers three-layer floorboards that combine a natural look with high stability. Oiled floors emphasize the wood’s structure and add a cozy feel to the interior, while varnished floors provide greater scratch resistance and are easy to clean.


Choosing the right wooden floor should be tailored to the interior style and user preferences. For classic interiors, boards in natural oak shades are perfect, emphasizing the elegance and solidity of the room. In modern spaces, it is worth choosing white or light finishes that will optically enlarge the interior and add lightness to it.
