"Boss, the color difference of your wooden floor is too big. Are you shoddy?"
What is the color difference of the floor? Is it "natural"? Or is it the "shoddy charge" of the business? Is chromatic aberration a "problem"?
Why do wooden floors have a color difference?

The reason for the chromatic aberration of the floor is generally due to the difference in the species, origin, color, texture, etc. of the trees. As long as the surface is solid wood, there may be a chromatic aberration.
01. Color difference between sapwood and core material
In the solid wood floor, the place near the bark is light in color and light in weight; the place near the heart of the tree is dark in color and heavy in weight.

02. Processing method leads to chromatic aberration
The floor wood opening method is different, some are cut by diameter, some are cut by string, the floor texture is inconsistent after processing, and the two floors with different wood grains will inevitably appear color difference visually.
03. Different color absorption
Wood is a porous material, and the density of different parts is different, and each part absorbs light and paints differently. The color effect is different, and the color difference naturally occurs.

04. Installation factors cause chromatic aberration
Because the floor itself has a color difference if the installer does not observe and compare the color of the floor during the installation process, but similar or similar colors together, or install the floor with the large color difference in a hidden location, it will easily cause the owner to cause a large floor color difference. a feeling of.

05. Environmental factors cause chromatic aberration
Generally, the color of the floor near the window is obviously brighter than the color of the floor in the dark place, which is mainly caused by the influence of sunlight.

How to solve the "color difference" problem
"Three points depend on materials, and seven points depend on the installation." Choosing a patient and meticulous installer when laying wooden floors can also solve the problem of the color difference of wooden floors.
01. Classify first, then try to install
Before the formal paving of solid wood floors, the boards are classified according to the depth of the color, and "trial paving" is carried out.
Sort first, then try
02. Avoid heavy and light, alleviate the visual difference
The wooden floors with similar colors should be laid together as much as possible, and the wooden floors with color difference can be laid in hidden places such as the bottom of the bed and sofa; if there are more than two rooms, the darker floor can be installed in one room, and the lighter one Install a room.
Avoid heavy and light, alleviate visual impairment
03. Use chromatic aberration for color matching
Cross-match and install solid wood floors with darker and lighter colors in the same color number to present a more natural and flexible style.
Color matching using chromatic aberration
The chromatic aberration of wooden floors is a "gift" of nature and an expression of natural diversity. A floor without chromatic aberration lacks a natural charm.
