Grey shadow

Grey Shadow Engineered Oak Flooring — Chevron & Herringbone

Grey Shadow is a deep, cool-toned engineered oak flooring that brings a sense of sophistication and understated drama to any interior. The colour combines the natural grain of European oak with a rich grey treatment — creating a distinctive smoky depth that shifts subtly in different lighting conditions.

This finish is particularly well-suited to contemporary, industrial and minimalist interiors where grey tones provide a strong visual anchor. Grey Shadow creates a striking contrast against white walls, polished concrete, black metal fixtures and natural stone. It has been specified by architects and interior designers across Europe for luxury residential apartments, boutique hotels and premium commercial spaces.

Colour character: Deep cool grey with subtle smoky undertones. Mid-to-dark tone with natural oak grain visible beneath the finish. UV oil preserves the character of the wood while enhancing the depth and coolness of the grey.

Pattern options: Grey Shadow is available in chevron parquet 45°, chevron parquet 60°, herringbone flooring 90° and straight board formats — one of the most architectural colour options in the PerfektoWood collection.
