Do you want a truly unique, dramatic accent to your home or office that will be a conversation piece for years to come? Then you’ll want to check out Interlam’s collections of wall veneers. Since 1985, Interlam has been bringing innovative wall covering products to the market. You can choose from ornamental carved or sculpted walls in a variety of different materials, kept to stringent standards of indoor air quality and that use FSC certified fibers.

Can you imagine a panel of stone that seems to undulate like waves? That’s just one option Interlam offers. They organize their panels into several collections, many of which can be customized, even as far as being able to use your own personal digital files to create something that truly no one else in the world would have.

To cover a sampling of what Interlam has to offer, first, there’s wood paneling. Might sound run of the mill, but Interlam does nothing run of the mill. They offer wall panels in melamine-coated exotic hardwoods that are extremely durable and accentuate the dramatic, unique striations that are present in the various wood species.

You can also, believe it or not, also get whole wall panels in natural stone. The creative and unusual designs and ingenious engineering to be able to use this type of material in this manner just cannot be matched. Then there’s the composite Art Diffusion collection, which can be ordered in different geometric designs and patterns as well as rivulets that capture motion in a solid panel.

The Mirage line is truly remarkable. Basically an image is carved from anthracite valchromat (as one example of base material) and applied almost as an embossed image. Using a stark black and white contrast, the “embossed” image can only be seen as a person backs up and away from the wall. Up close, it looks perhaps like abstract, random designs, but as the distance increases, an amazing image becomes apparent.

You can even provide Interlam a graphic file, and they can make one of these masterpieces of even a person’s photograph. A great place to install one of these panel creations is where people can walk up close to the wall as well as see it from a significant distance. So all this to say, the options are endless; take a look at Interlam’s galleries and let your imagination go wild!

Lauzon Distinctive Hardwood Flooring is a company committed to quality that you should definitely consider if you decide to go for the gold…golden oak, that is. But golden oak is by far not the only choice for your new floor.

In 2010, Lauzon celebrated 25 years of business, and there’s a reason for that longevity. Lauzon prides itself on its customer satisfaction focus as well as an amazing selection of colors, patterns, and textures that our natural world has put in our hands. This great company not only provides quality products and warranties, but it also carries the torch of environmental responsibility by having FSC-certification on a selection of their maple solid hardwood products, which means Lauzon’s production processes meets strict requirements for using raw materials from responsibly managed forests as well as recycled sources. Quite a nice stamp of environmental approval. Lauzon also uses eco-friendly finishes that contain no VOCs, solvents, or formaldehyde agents.

In addition to environmental quality practices, if you select a Lauzon engineered hardwood flooring product, you are getting the absolute best. Lauzon uses a process of dry solid saw milling, which differs from how many other manufactures handle their engineered products. It provides for a more natural look to the finished product as well as allows the floor to be resurfaced in the future if needed.

Lauzon also provides your classic, traditional solid hardwood flooring as well. All Lauzon’s products are coated with a unique, ultra-strong Polynium + with Titanium Traffic finish with Ultra-Fresh. Lauzon’s amazing finish is a step ahead of the more traditional aluminum oxide coating in its gloss and its ability to allow the pure look of the wood to shine through, as well as its unmatched resistance to scratches and denting. The Ultra-Fresh element is added to the finish and gives the floor antimicrobial properties that even further protects the wood from breaking down over (lots of) time and protects inhabitants from the sometimes perilous world of the unseen microbe!

Have a ball selection from Lauzon’s huge selection of colors and styles. There’s sure to be more than one you’ll have to choose between.
