PARQUET.

The parquet is intended for the large spacious locations with interiors of the sustained classical shapes. The quiet motive of slantwise delivered quadrates out of a light oak, acquires the large grace at the expense of delicate decorating by lines and circles out of an ebony, thus alternating with zones out of more massive section out of mahagony, decorated by insertions out of gently poon. Depending on natural or artificial light exposure of a room, and also the colour palette dictated by an furniture interior, we offer two variants of room frames in a different tonality. The following foreign kinds of wood have used in the elegant, but fully symmetric design: American walnut, red wood Mahagony, lemon wood Guatambu, and also Gleditschia from Ukraine.

On the article it is submitted two variants of extreme frames of a guest room in a different tonality. The perfectly chosen color kinds of wood create juicy dyeing scale in a parquet. The powerful spacious figure, which background is executed by a basis out of a radial oak, laid out of a big squares. The squares are decorated by diagonal filaments at angle of 45 degree one to another. The game of a invoices luminescence on a semitone reaches the maximal effect due to performance of the given figure plan. Slowly passing along a guest room we involuntarily admire all charm of a soft figure luminescence in "chess" order. The apron is completely decorated by drafts out of mahogany, that betrays special severity and solidity to all room. The parquet is decorated with a smart zone on which ebony background the meander of the yellow color is traced, having a semitone as two thin filaments out of a snow-white ash. The interior of a parquet combines monumental construction of figure and the refined finesse embodied in the Greek meander. All this gives to a smart room a respectable design embodied in individually harmonious composition.

The parquet to dinning room was produced according to a project of architect-designer V.À. Rodionov. Taking into account of room's destination, exotic kinds of wood (rosewood, Schizandra (different kinds), fumed oak, amaranth, balau, walnut, sandal (red), poon etc.) have used during the work. The parquet design have constructed in the form of big relief grid. The meshes of grid are divided into four chesssquares and decorated by two quadrates out of fumed oak in the center. The central rosette, produced in strict geometry and slightly decorated by vegetative elements is based on the formed grid. The common diameter of rosette is 1200 mm. Though the hall with such saturated parquet has the area 18 m2, figure was perfectly entered in an interior conceived by the architect.

The main idea of this design has taken from the table, coated by beautiful composition out of ebony, Karelian birch and walnut. The russian tsar Peter I had made that table himself. At present time that exhibit is kepting at St-Petrersburg in the Grate Petergoff Palace. During the work the architect put the problem to create tight carpeting, respective to needs of given interior. The craftsmen proposed aforementioned design of table, but with revised proportions and colour palette. The architect have accepted these propositions, revised them and the task was completely accomplished. Note: It is possible to insert the field-form parquet element, realized in the style of interior. It unites rooms and entrance to the balcony or verandah. The production time of 1 m2 is about 50 hours of handicraft.

For idea the parquet of an ancient private residence of 1900 was taken. At the present moment craftsmen realized work at parquet design for improvement. There are the art arrangement of the same material tonality and the grace of thin filaments out of a black oak and a white hornbeam which are connected among them to high accuracy. Competent selection of wood invoices and unity of the general composition are the tasks, which masters becoming before itself. The interesting decision in the parquet is the wide frieze, as the mosaic boards executed in the same material. The natural game of wood at light falling and a soft tonality without exact differences of color scale are accentuated in this design. The composition is well read by the singularity, drawing to itself attention.

The given parquet design was born as a result of processing a furniture set from a toilet little table of an original configuration as trefoil. This fine subject of furniture art, belongs to Great Princess Maria Fedorovna per 1770,and now is in St-Petersburg Ekaterinensky Palace - museum. Graceful zones of the inclined invoice, being bound among themselves, magnificently, have settled down on all parquet cloth, in a combination to vegetative elements, as a many-petaled flower incuted in dies out of a black oak, with the game of light especially decorate a rich wooden carpet.

It is one of a great number of volumetric figures which applicability is to decorate small cosy halls, small corridors or transitive elements as ladder platforms. The parquet has effect of so-called flickering figure, due to gentle difference of dies out of a beech and an oak figure is slightly poured as steps leaving in top and laying one on another. Performance of figure with an additional ornament, for example an art zone various modification is possible. Materials used at work above the given figure are mainly categories of the radial cut.

Active figure on a color palette has volumet-ric effect, a few angular forms that gives to it a special highlight. For a basis figure of a parquet cloth was taken from the Grand Peterhof palace (Saint Petersburg). Further figure was advanced in proportions, geometry, and the color decision. The radial ar-rangement of invoices in the applied wood as much as possible transfers us integrity and unity of all set. The most favorite reception of masters of XVIII century, classical sewing of the big oak square in an envelope is. Such floor well will approach for the strict interiors sustained in "Petrovsky" style. Combinations of ornaments, for example art zones, may be the diversified, on an interior and individuality of rooms.

During the work the craftsmen betrayed special value to achievement of a light cloth of coldish outflow on the submitted article. The apron is lined by powerful drafts out of silvery ash and a snow-white hornbeam. Due to it asterisks out of ebony, laying on squares of red color are effectively expressed. It creates additional semitone in color parquet. The color riches of mosaic parquets as much as possible come to light owing to the craftsmen. Sometimes they compare in a set wood of one kind, but different on tone to transition to more light or dark. From here "Picturesqueness" of parquets is one of features conducting them. Piece parquets get value of unique samples of an applied art, having masterly irreproachable figure in workmanship.

It is a smart, grandiose parquet. The parquet is dynamical and color due to contrasting kinds of wood. Figure consists of sixteen-point stars reminding snowflakes. Stars are joined to each other by the ends of thin black lines. The pink beech is the basic background formed between them. It betrays to a parquet special heat. The smart frieze art zone had made out of mahogany. On a zone freakish oblong figures out of ash lay. Figures are framed by thin lines out of ebony and sprayed mitre jointed among themselves. Mosaic floors are not only unsurpassed samples of the individuality, but also an integral part of decorative registration of rooms. They emphasize that smoothness of lines of architecture, dynamism and grace of the color decision.

One more version of braiding. It is more splintered due to an oak background and the central blocks on the convergences of zones out of a black oak and a white hornbeam. The idea of a classical grid as braiding is taken from the hall at Ostankino palace-museum and advanced in more tiny proportions. It allows to apply such figure even in small premises, such as: smart halls, dining rooms etc. The art parquet makes an integral part of decorative design of interiors and is its conducting element.

This parquet has the amplified effect of a luminescence chess due to the same material of any other business on color scale. In this case, it is an oak. Four chess with powerful pointing enter into a cell of the big module grid. Such parquet will approach for more spacious halls, reception or guest rooms. Drafts out of a white hornbeam and the natural mahogany, in addition decorated with squares out of an ebony, bring a certain movement on a cloth. Creating intricate type-setting parquets, masters took the most colour and light properties of wood, both imported, and domestic.

Slightly we shall talk about beauty of classical forms, namely about braiding (Petersburg). Harmony of figure, adjusted proportions and the color palette, spiritualizing heat of a natural tree create conditions of rest and pleasure. Noble simplicity and quiet greatness which were considered as practically ideal canons of XVIII century here are to the full embodied. A soft combination of a chess out of a radial oak, decorated by thin graceful lines out of a snow-white hornbeam, create really an interior of classical forms that never becoming outdated and not leaving of a style. Highlight an oak cloth beechen a frieze, having in the palette soft gradation of color from light pink up to reddish shades. And art zone only simulating volumetric side slightly breaks a certain smoothness of figure construction.

Figure of the basic cloth reminds us wicker furniture. Due to such effect the parquet is very dynamical. Only central inserts as squares order figure in wholly-made boards. Squares consist of four ashen triangles seized on perimeter by the black line. On this sample for a cloth background the oak of a category "rustikal" was chosen. In this case the parquet has no uniformity and stability of wood invoices, but shows to us all variety of natural color shades. The inclined belt laid out by dies from silvery ash on a background of mahogany finishes the given composition, actuating all perimeter of a room. Note: The production time of 1 m2 is about 50 hours of handicraft.

This is the parquet simulating a tile with an active ornament as inserts out of black oak. On a background of rather modest figure which was sewed up in "chess", the field, which is linked by graceful lines around of squares out of mahogany and an ebony is especially magnificent and elegant. Finishes an parquet interior a frieze out of radial cut of silvery ash . The freshness of light tone and calmness of invoices of a frieze enables sight to have a rest, thus strengthening perception of an art plan of the author.

The parquet of very high complexity and labour input, is executed in softer tonality kinds of wood: an oak, an ash, fumed oak, mahogany, an oak (brown), a beech. All the parquet interior is constructed on mosaic elements of the zones, bound the one after another. It creates effect beautiful forged fence which is not having an initial and final point. At construction of this figure in the big halls among other parquets the decision frieze spaces is unusual. It is filled on contrast "chess" out of an oak and a maple. Softness of color unity of all cloth creates the graceful composition have solution in the best traditions of masters of the nineteenth century beginning.

Volumetric figure of a parquet is laid out from equipotential sides, that make cubes, standing one on another . Softness of a color palette of the general cloth allows to emphasize the main thing on an edging from mahogany with a simple threefold zone out of silvery ash and two narrow lines out of black oak. The figure is also used for filling narrow corridors, thus the parquet is spread by volumetric cubes up to the walls, increasing visually width of the given room.

In this parquet we meet such type of a set which may be widely used in our modern apartments that is having small halls, vestibules, corridors "broken" configurations. Such figure refers to as volumetric or flickering. Effect or it is illusory steps rising upwards, it is achieved by contrast between lateral sides from a black oak and a white hornbeam. Being in such room it seems, that the parquet has no a horizontal plane. In the cases demanding visual expansion of the area of a room, it is recommended to make stacking the given parquet without frieze ornaments.

Mosaic herring-bone pattern consists two pair rivets similar on color and the invoice against each other, making the wide dies, softly poured on light. Due to correct use of a direction of fibres of wood this parquet, idle time under the form and a material, gives magnificent game of light and it seems gala to despite of figure simplicity. Bypassing from different directions a room involuntarily you admire this enchantling change of dies out of pink beech radial opening, lit, dying away. The highlight to your bedroom will be given with a smart zone out of cross mahogany and trapezoid inserts out of snowy ash. Note: The production time of 1 m2 is about 16 hours of handicraft.

It is a parquet of a soft tonality. Instead of the bright paints primordially inherent in Russian mosaic parquets, embroidered by drafts basted again, dies of an oak with golden outflow and silvered on light triangles out of a white maple here begin to dominate. As against that rough dynamics and eccentricity, to characteristic previous figures, the modesty, simplicity and logicality here prevails. Such floor will be good to be read with classical interiors from bedrooms up to guest rooms.
