Natural Inspiration – Kustom Timber Introduces the Peninsula Range

by the natural coastline of Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, Kustom Timber in-troduces a new range of engineered timber flooring. Featuring rustic knots and grains enlivened by a warm tonal treatment, the collection forms a poetic depiction of the mar-itime setting.

Designing with the Australian home in mind, Kustom Timber’s premium-quality engineered timber floors offer a sophisticated response to the unique local climate. Comprised of rich European oak, responsibly sourced, the engineered timber boards are specially treated to resist heat and mois-ture, so they will not swell or warp with time. “Engineered timber is the go-to choice for Australian homeowners and renovators looking for a timber floor today,” says Kustom Timber Co-Founder Mark Chaz. “It’s indistinguishable from solid timber, but it’s more affordable, quicker and easier to install, kinder to the environment and will age gracefully for decades.”

Characterised by natural knots and grains, the Kustom Timber Peninsula range reflects the influence of jagged clifftops, secluded bays and hiking trails, rugged features that define the Mornington Pen-insula. Flooring options London Bridge, Diamond Bay, Bushrangers and St Andrews bring both the visual and geographic aspect of the coastal experience into focus. Deepened by touches of charcoal, London Bridge alludes to the rock formations and dark headlands of London Bridge Lookout. Dia-mond Bay features bold knots and swirls finished with a mocha stain – it is a striking interpretation of the views over the Bay of Islands, as well as the rock guarding its entrance. Conversely, Bush-rangers is a pleasant mid-tone timber with diverse applications, taking cues from one of the most scenic walks across the clifftops. With softly weathered matte-blond timber, elevated by knots and swirls, St Andrews represents a timeless interpretation of the pristine sand dunes, rock pools and waters of Bass Strait.

“While unmistakably coastal-inspired, the Peninsula floors are versatile enough to work within a va-riety of architectural styles, including classic terraces, urban apartments and sprawling suburban homes,” says Mark. “They’re highly durable and packed with character. Better yet, they’ll only get better with age – sandy feet, kids, pets, houseguests – they’re designed to handle it all.”
