Karndean Commercial updates Van Gogh collection with palette for modern interiors

KARNDEAN Commercial has updated its Van Gogh collection with six designs and a parquet-style Pavilion Panel format.
Developed to help designers meet demand for characterful and accessible flooring, the refreshed collection introduces a revised portfolio suited to biophilic spaces focused on connectivity and wellbeing.

Featuring a balanced range of tones for contemporary interiors, the updated Van Gogh collection includes new Après Oak, Urban Elm and Prime Oak designs in a choice of formats, providing designers with greater flexibility across various projects.
Richard Allen, vice president of sales for commercial at Karndean Commercial, said: ‘Our new Van Gogh designs represent a clear aesthetic direction for the collection. Each design is rooted in material inspiration and has been selected to support design schemes that align with current interior trends.

‘We’ve also simplified and refined the Van Gogh collection, creating a more focused and easier-to-navigate range. The updated palette offers clearer differentiation and a broader spread of tones, helping designers make decisions more efficiently and specify with confidence.’

Says the company: ‘Drawing inspiration from original samples selected for their character and relevance, the collection introduces new wood tones and textures designed to support various interior styles.
‘The new Après Oak collection, inspired by Bavarian oak from southern Germany, is available in three colourways: Honey Après Oak, Cocoa Après Oak and Sable Après Oak. Spanning honeyed gold and caramel tones through to deeper tobacco shades, each design features a directional emboss that highlights the character of the wood. The range is also available in the Pavilion Panel format, providing an alternative design option.

‘Inspired by the landscapes of Indianapolis and the grain patterns of a now-rare elm species, Indy Urban Elm features varied grain detail and natural imperfections. The design introduces warm tones suited to contemporary interiors.’
Building on the existing Natural Prime Oak design, the Summer 2026 update introduces two colourways. Truffle Prime Oak combines ash-beige highlights with chocolate-brown accents, while Linen Prime Oak offers a lighter appearance for interiors that favour a more restrained aesthetic.

Each new design is available in full plank (48inx7in) and herringbone (18inx4.5in) formats, with the three Après Oak designs also offered in a 24inx24in Pavilion Panel format designed to recreate the appearance of parquet flooring with fewer installation requirements.
‘With a 3mm thickness and 0.55mm wearlayer, the latest Van Gogh designs provide the durability and installation characteristics required for commercial environments.

‘The refreshed collection also supports low-VOC specification requirements that contribute to indoor air quality. Karndean Commercial also offers a takeback scheme for clean installation offcuts and provides product warranties of up to 20 years in commercial environments.’
Concludes the company: ‘Combining natural material influences, multiple format options and a palette developed around wellbeing and biophilic design principles, the updated Van Gogh collection provides commercial designers with a flooring option suited to a range of interior applications.’
