Style notes that help it look “right” in real homes
Wide, long planks create a calmer, more seamless wood visual—especially in open-concept spaces—while the herringbone option adds movement and a tailored, designer feel in entryways, dining rooms, and offices. Artisan Reserve is built around nature-inspired visuals that read warm and organic rather than overly “printed.”

-
9" x 72" planks (26.75 sq ft/carton)

Performance and care (practical, not precious)
This is a strong choice when you want the look of hardwood with the day-to-day confidence of vinyl—especially in homes with pets, kids, and frequent entertaining. For maintenance, keep it simple: regular dry dusting/vacuuming and occasional damp cleaning per manufacturer guidance and warranty requirements
