Five details that lift a floor in a large villa
Hittin is a district of spacious villas with formal majlis rooms (reception rooms for guests), open lounges and wide staircases. A premium floor is not the priciest board in the catalogue; it is the right call on direction, edges and transitions. We check these on every visit here.
Pattern direction follows the view from the door
We line the herringbone or chevron axis up with the longest sightline from the entrance, or the centre of the majlis seating. Off-axis, even beautiful timber feels lopsided.
A border that frames the field
In big rooms, a frame of straight boards around the herringbone field looks finished and quietly hides the slightly out-of-square walls most buildings have.
A smooth meeting of marble and wood
Where marble stays in the entrance or on the stairs, we plan the parquet thickness and a matching transition profile so the surfaces meet without a lip.
Skirting scaled to the ceiling
High ceilings need taller skirting, matched to the doors or the wall. Thin skirting in a tall lounge looks like an afterthought.
Rug pattern scaled to the room
- A large majlis needs a bigger medallion and a wider border
- Small repeating motifs look busy in a big hall
- Leave an even margin between rug edge and seating on every side

Four materials Hittin homeowners keep asking for
A timeless pattern for lounges and formal rooms
Herringbone gives a lounge movement and depth without competing with the furniture. We bring light, warm and dark tones, with broader boards for halls and narrower ones for mid-sized rooms.
- Axis agreed before cutting
- Optional straight-board border
One rug that anchors the whole majlis
For a formal majlis we prefer one large bordered rug with a medallion over several small pieces, sized to the seating and matched to curtains and cushions, then bound at the edges.
- Navy, burgundy and gold palettes
- Sized to the real room
A wide staircase that is quieter and safer underfoot
In a big villa the staircase is the home’s inner showpiece. We measure each tread separately, since they rarely match, and fix the carpet firmly at the nosing — as full cover, or as a bordered runner that leaves the marble showing either side.
Rigid planks for the back kitchen, annex and staff rooms
Back kitchens, annexes and staff quarters need a floor that shrugs off water and traffic. Wood-look SPC planks keep the look consistent with the rest of the house; see more under vinyl flooring.
Choose with open eyes
Herringbone at home: what you gain, what it asks of you
What it adds
- A presence straight-laid boards cannot match
- Works with classic and contemporary interiors
- Pairs well with a border or marble inlay
- Suits long lounges and formal rooms
What it needs
- More cutting waste than a straight lay
- A very flat subfloor before starting
- Longer fitting time and careful setting-out
- Harder to swap a single board later
Renovation without upheaval
Refreshing floors in a lived-in Hittin villa
Much of our Hittin work is not new-build: a family has lived in the villa for years and wants to replace tired carpet or turn a lounge into parquet. We go room by room, so most of the house stays usable.
Marble and stairs are protected, old carpet and adhesive lifted, and the subfloor checked before anything new goes down. The majlis is booked around family occasions.
- Rooms done in the order your family prefers
- Marble and furniture protected
- Waste removed and the space cleaned after each stage

Questions from Hittin villa owners
Does herringbone parquet suit a large men’s majlis?
It does if the majlis uses sofas or mixed seating with a rug in the middle. If guests sit on floor cushions most of the time, full carpet or a wall-to-wall rug is warmer and kinder. We talk through how you use the room before recommending either.
Can you replace stair carpet without touching the marble or balustrade?
Usually, yes. We lift the old carpet carefully, clean off adhesive and fixings, then fit full cover or a runner that leaves marble visible on both sides, measuring each tread separately.
Can parquet go over existing marble instead of breaking it out?
Often, with a floating floor, if the marble is sound and level — but door heights, thresholds and transitions to other rooms must be checked. Glued herringbone needs a closer look at the surface. We assess it during the visit and tell you plainly what will work.
How do we size a rug for Arabic floor seating that runs along the walls?
We measure the clear distance between facing seats and leave an even margin all round, so the rug sits dead centre. Irregular rooms get a custom-cut rug; our custom-size rugs page explains the process.
We have an interior designer. Will you follow their specification?
Yes. We work from the drawings and colour board, provide samples for approval, and coordinate fitting dates around joinery and lighting. Any technical concern about a material is raised before work starts, not after.
