European ash is known for its remarkable density and elasticity, providing superior wear resistance compared to many standard hardwoods. In Nordic and Baltic architecture, ash is frequently specified for its pale, creamy appearance and expressive grain character, which helps reflect daylight across open spaces.
For this residential space in Riga, the Rustic grading creates a natural focal point, balancing clean interior lines with the warmth and authentic texture of solid wood.
Due to the seasonal humidity variations in Latvia, solid wood flooring requires rigorous moisture control during production. PerfektoWood kiln-dries all timber to a strict 8% (±2%) moisture content in automated drying chambers.
The 16 mm thickness ensures an exceptionally long lifecycle, allowing the floor to be sanded and refinished multiple times in the future. The boards were installed via full-surface bonding onto a prepared subfloor using elastic adhesives to guarantee acoustic comfort and prevent joint separation.

With a full 16 mm wear layer, solid ash parquet provides multi-generational durability and can be sanded down 4 to 6 times over its lifespan, making it a sustainable and cost-effective long-term choice.
Because the timber is precision kiln-dried to controlled moisture parameters and bonded using elastic adhesives, the floor easily accommodates seasonal indoor humidity changes without warping or gapping.
