La dolce vita in Aotearoa
Our homes are canvases on which we express our creativity, so what better way to produce a masterpiece than with Forté’s new Artiste and Moda Collections? The team at Forté Flooring tells us all about these two European-inspired ranges.
Artiste Vermeer
The launch of these two new ranges has added 30 new European-inspired designs to Forté's collection in the past 12 months. From beautiful matte raw-look finishes in ten contemporary colours to undulating textures and original saw markings for a hand-cut look – Moda and Artiste can integrate flawlessly into heritage designs or modern homes.
Moda Mondello
Crafted in a bespoke factory in Hungary, Artiste’s rustic nod to history combined with a modern approach will give character to any space, whether it’s your lounge, dining or living space. The rustic-grade smoked oak surfaces are deeply brushed to reveal the natural wood grain, and knots and tonal differences are given room to shine. The undulating surface and original saw markings combine to recreate the feeling of a floor that has been walked on for hundreds of years.
Moda Capri
Moda Isola
The curated palette of five warm, contemporary colours will transform spaces into works of art – inspired by some of history’s greatest artists. The 250 mm extra-wide plank offers a 5.5 mm extra thick wear layer, and with four to five re-sands, is made to last. Each plank is meticulously crafted to create a time-worn feel, protected by a durable Italian lacquer to shield it from the sun’s harsh rays while maintaining a luxurious look and textural feel underfoot.
Forté’s Moda collection is at once on-trend and timeless. Crafted in Europe from sustainable certified European oak, Moda is eco-friendly both in the way it is produced and sourced.
‘Moda’, meaning fashion in Italian, is inspired by unforgettable European destinations and designed to evoke the feeling of a relaxing escape. Colour cues have been taken from warm sunsets over the Amalfi Coast, the cobblestoned streets of Como and the ancient buildings of Verona, then translated into timber surfaces that New Zealanders will love.
Artiste Monet
Featuring a unique finish that is unlike anything else in New Zealand, Moda’s SilkMatte finish gives the untouched raw charm of an oil but with added durability and repairability. The lightly brushed surface gives a subtle texture to the wood grain pattern and is available in ten stylish colours. Matching stains to colour cabinetry and furniture are also available to create a seamless look throughout.
These beautiful flooring ranges come supplied pre-finished, ready to walk on as soon as the installation is complete. It’s never been easier to experience such distinctive beauty and style in your home.
