Admittedly, it is rare, but every so often a trend will stick for good, eventually cementing itself as a true design classic. The ever-elegant, eye-catching and adaptable herringbone is a case in point.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Herringbone pattern has been around for centuries, with brick floors and mosaics across Europe continuing to showcase this age-old style down streets, within courtyards and throughout people&#8217;s homes. Since such times herringbone has gone through many adaptations, and the versatile pattern has evolved and developed to fit seamlessly with the design styles of each passing era. The familiar zigzag adds visual and textural richness to large surface areas making it the perfect solution for flooring and walls. The pattern&#8217;s versatility is one of many reasons it has stood the test of time. To celebrate the wonderful ways that herringbone can be used, we&#8217;ve rounded up some beautiful projects that demonstrate it at its very best.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374854830614b-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" \/><span class=\"s1\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-112548 lazy lazy_media_item alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-scaled.jpeg 1707w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-768x1152.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/162374841354002b-1365x2048.jpeg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/city-lake-apartment-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">City Lake Apartment<\/a> <\/strong>by <a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/279-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">atelier 27.9<\/a>, Slovakia<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The beautiful parquetry throughout City Lake Apartment is used to add warmth to the otherwise industrial apartment.
