And in the world of wood flooring, few manufacturers are more esteemed than <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/brands\/dinesen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dinesen<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a family-run Danish company that has been in the flooring business since 1898. Their trademark wide-plank floors \u2014 available in a variety of shades and grains \u2014 are a fixture of high-end interior design magazines. Dinesen floors are for those looking for quality above all else, whether their tastes run toward the traditional or contemporary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing that sets Dinesen apart is the reverence they have for wood, both as a building material and a natural resource. \u201cWe approach nature with humility and respect,\u201d they explain. \u201cOur trees come from family owned European forests. The forest and the soil have been cultivated for centuries by foresters with an inherent tradition of sustainable forestry and growing extraordinary, majestic trees.\u201d The trees that end up in various projects, which range in age from 80 to 200 years, are \u201chandpicked based on their structure and dimensions to ensure each tree is the finest nature can produce.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-58653 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Sense-of-Dinesen-Schwarzwald-05-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dinesen is renowned for its solid planks for wooden flooring, panelling, ceiling and other design elements. The company\u2019s products are designed to put wood to be at the heart of a project\u2019s interior, from intimate personal spaces to expansive public and cultural settings. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Its raw wood comes from majestic Douglas firs, characterful Oak trees, beautiful Ash and classic Pine, with each tree selected according to strict quality criteria such as straightness, growth rings, knots and harmony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given Dinesen\u2019s commitment to the material integrity of their floors, you might be surprised to learn that they have recently introduced an engineered wood product called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/brands\/dinesen\/products\/dinesen-oak-layers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dinesen Layers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Despite common preconceptions, though, a well-constructed engineered wood floor is every bit as durable and charming as a solid wood floor. And as one would expect, Dinesen\u2019s engineered flooring product is one of the best on the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason for this can be found within Dinesen\u2019s unique manufacturing process. Dinesen Layers are not created with a veneer of high-quality wood on top and lower-quality plywood underneath, as the stereotype of engineered floors would hold. To the contrary, these engineered planks are created with high-quality, old-growth oak through and through.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-58654 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/F30x300-12-5-m-HOV-Villa-Humleb\u00e6k-Henning-Larsen-Architects-081-66x50.jpg 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDinesen Layers Oak distinguishes itself from other lamella constructed floors as it consists of three quality layers that are pressed together with a reverse middle layer\u2014all in European Oak,\u201d they explain.

Indeed, cross-laminated timber is one of the hottest building materials on the market right now and for good reason. In addition to being sustainable, engineered wood is strong, as the cross-laminated layers reinforce one another, standing up to environmental conditions and everyday wear and tear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe cross-lamination that is used to make Layers ensures a high degree of structural stability, as the method minimizes the amount of movement over the course of the year,\u201d Dinesen explains. \u201cCompared to a solid floor, Layers will have much less variation in the degree of transverse warping and in the width of the gaps between the planks.\u201d Put another way, the layered construction of the material ensures that it will stay in place, even in the face of moisture or temperature changes. In fact, Dinesen Layers is approved for use with underfloor heating.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-58656 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"dinesen layers\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-1024x739.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-768x554.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-1536x1108.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dinesen-Layers-Oak-07-2048x1477.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Dinesen Layers features the structural advantages of engineered wood, the look and feel is that of pure oak. \u201cThe fact that the floor is constructed with three quality lamella and installed using full-surface gluing prevents the slightly hollow or flat sound that other traditional lamella floors make when you walk on them,\u201d explains Dinesen. \u201cInstead, the floor provides a high quality feel and experience.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The planks are available in one standard dimension, featuring Dinesen\u2019s iconic 300mm (11.8\u201d) width, and a versatile 19mm thickness.

We are particularly taken, however, with HeartOak, which features many knots and even cracks that are patched together with butterfly joints.
