Studio Job engraves fossils in flooring for first parquet collection
London Design Festival 2016: skeletons and three-dimensional patterns feature in Studio Job's new parquet, the first wood products to be released by Italian mosaic brand Bisazza (+ slideshow).
The Wood collection expands on the Belgian design duo's previous work for Bisazza, which has included tiles decorated with imagery based on Britain's Industrial Revolution.

The oak parquet comes in a range of colours and patterns that Studio Job describes as "approachable" compared to some of its back catalogue.
"It's quite cool that Bisazza, a mosaic brand, has come up with a mosaic wood collection," the studio's co-founder Job Smeets told Dezeen. "And it's quite approachable too." "It looks like something you actually could have in your house."

The collection's Gingham pattern is a multicoloured chequerboard that Studio Job's other co-founder, Nynke Tynagel described as "like classic tiling or a tablecloth with a gingham pattern".
The difference is that the squares can be ordered laser engraved with imagery of animal skeletons from the Studio Job library.
"Adding them to the floor, they become like fossils," added Tynagel. The motifs have previously featured in the studio's tiles, wallpaper and furniture.
