Luminous Poetry

The Luminous Poetry collection of cork flooring by Wicanders offers 13 breathtaking colors and designs for any homeowner looking to brighten up their home. There is something almost mystical about the choices available in Luminous Poetry and any choice is sure to add an extra special touch to any design scheme. At the same time, the selections in the Luminous Poetry collection are largely neutral and will complement most any choice of décor. A cork floor from the Luminous Poetry collection will add beauty and softness to any room of a home.

Is Cork Flooring from Luminous Poetry Durable?

• Cork is extraordinarily resistant to rot. Applying a sealant to the floor in high moisture areas will increase this natural characteristic.
• Cork is resilient. Its composition allows it to endure an impressive amount of pressure and quickly bounce back to its original form.
• Cork does not readily burn. In the event of a house fire, the cork will serve to retard the spread of flame, and when it does burn it does not off gas toxic fumes.

What are the Design Options with Luminous Poetry?

Design options are wide and are limited only by the homeowner’s own imagination. For a sea of white, one can select the Personality Moonlight for the entire floor. Alternatively, homeowners may choose to combine selections from other collections by Wicanders such as the Mettalic Audacity collection, the Rural Elegance collection, or the Urban Expressions collections. One may even go so far as to mix and match colors and patterns from other manufactures such as IpoCork.

Creating a custom floor with the Luminous Poetry Collection can be as simple or as detailed as one chooses to make it. A simple border or frame using two colors can be quite elegant. One can create a focal point in the center of the floor with the surrounding background one solid color. Homeowners can even vary the tiles and colors throughout the entire floor for whatever type look they desire.

Is Luminous Poetry Cork Flooring Harmful to the Environment?

Absolutely not! Cork flooring is one of the most environmentally friendly flooring materials available today. It is completely sustainable and since only the bark of the cork tree is used, no trees are ever cut down in order to make it. Harvesting the bark every 9 years does not harm the tree at all and gives the tree ample time to regenerate its bark, so the tree is always contributing to the well being of the environment.

The regular cleaning and maintenance of cork floors require no harsh chemicals, adding to the “green” factor of cork. Only mild detergents should be used on cork floors, if any at all. Beyond this mild cleansing with a damp mop, only sweeping is required for regular maintenance. A homeowner can feel good about the minimal environmental impact their new Luminous Poetry cork floors have.

Is Luminous Poetry Cork Flooring Affordable?
