Designer Oak Flooring

With an unmistakable warmth and patina that will compliment any interior, Oak is the latest and most fashionable timber floor on the market.  Available in a wide range of colours, Oak has a soft natural grain that adds a sense of warmth and texture.  

Oak floors rate at approximately 5.5kN on the Janka hardness scale, so they are not the most durable and dense floor - however they arrive with a distressed finish, so small marks and dents are easily disguised.  A single dent on a smooth high gloss floor is far more obvious. 

The lighter tones of the natural oak floors start in a driftwood colour - with a slight pink hue - and are very French in style when used in a light scheme, surrounded by neutral colours. 

When you contrast against a slate grey, the inherent grain of the boards seems to pop out for a beautiful modern twist. 

The mid-range oak colours are more golden / tan and work beautifully in all-white schemes. Add greys and blues for a contemporary twist.

Area Rugs

Area rugs are a practical way to provide comfort and warmth to any room. Convenient and easy to change, rugs provide artistic value – that can be changed with the seasons, or updated quickly and often at little cost. Considered artwork for the floor, area rugs can help to frame an area, and create a well-balanced space.

To add an extra dimension to a room, consider using a shag pile rug. Offering high and low colour variation, shag piles are soft and interesting underfoot – and lush to walk on. We love using an over sized area rug, that works with accent colours in the room. Try placing a shag rug at the foot of the bed over a hard floor surface for extra warm and to add a lux touch to your bedroom. Use coordinating colours on the bed to tie the look together.

Natural fibre rugs, such as sisal or coir are a fantastic way to add texture. Considered ‘stimulating’ under foot (sales talk for ‘rough’) – natural floor covers also add a casual touch – perfect for family areas.  

Try using an animal hide placed under the foot of your lounge to add interest, drama and contrast to your living room.  Most successful on dark floors, animal hides can be smaller in size than a standard area rug because the colour and pattern is more – both visually and texturally. The quilted option is great for oversized rooms.

To soften a room, try a round or oval shape rug – in front of a long lounge, a round rug creates interesting negative space – especially with a high contrast in colour or pattern.

GIFTS THAT GIVE

What do you give the person who has everything?

How about a goat? Or a chicken? Or a pig? Or a pile of seeds? Oxfam Unwrapped offers a range of more than 40 totally unexpected gift ideas that will also help transform the life of a person living in poverty.

When you buy an Unwrapped gift card, your donation helps support Oxfam Australia's life-changing work around the world. Best of all, your family member, workmate or friend receives an extremely memorable gift card explaining how their special gift is helping others. It's a way that those of us with a lot can help those with a little.

All Oxfam Unwrapped gifts are real items that are used to fight poverty. Most gifts in the catalogue are already located in the country where Oxfam are working, so they're not impacting on their  global footprint either!

Our choice?

What about a gift that supports community-led solutions to health care delivery in remote Queensland, ensuring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities are getting the health care they need?

How This Helps

The healthcare needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians can be vastly different to that of other Australians. In the Lower Gulf of Carpentaria, Oxfam is working with Yippippi Gulf Indigenous Health Council to support community voices to be heard by decision-makers. They are helping to establish community organisations and advocating for the delivery of community-controlled health services.

“Oxfam gave our people incentive and self-esteem. This is the type of service we need in community. It gave us hope for the future — that we will own our own services.” Robyrta Felton, Mornington Island Elder.
