Karndean's LooseLay Orginals Luxury Vinyl Flooring Chosen for New Apartments

Nestled on a tight inner-city corner lot in South Brisbane, bounded by Melbourne Street, Cordelia Street, and Fish Lane, Fish Lane Apartments stand as a testament to modern urban living. This 10-storey boutique-style development offers ground-level retail spaces and 48 one and two-bedroom living spaces meticulously designed to meet the needs of contemporary lifestyles.

Karndean LooseLay Originals Country Oak LLP92 flooring was selected for a number of reasons including its ability to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the interiors. The wider planks and cool grey colourways of Country Oak create a spacious, open look that perfectly suits apartment living, adding a touch of elegance to each unit. Choosing Karndean luxury vinyl flooring for multi-residential mid and high-rise buildings offers superior quality, extensive design options, ease of installation and a lifetime domestic warranty, reflecting Karndean's commitment to delivering exceptional durability, performance and reliability.

Beyond its visual appeal, Karndean LooseLay was chosen for its practical benefits. Karndean LooseLay is not only cost-effective but was quick and easy to install across all 48 apartments and other common areas, making it an ideal choice for a large-scale residential project such as Fish Lane. Karndean's K-Wave friction-grip backing keeps flooring in place without the need for adhesive. Furthermore, single planks and tiles are easily removed and are individually replaceable.

Perfectly suited for multi-residential buildings, Karndean LooseLay’s innovative K-Wave backing reduces noise to lower floors by 16 dB while adding cushion for extra comfort. This feature eliminates the need for a separate acoustic underlay, reducing both installation time and costs.

The selection of Karndean LooseLay Originals Country Oak also aligns with the project's commitment to sustainability. The LooseLay Originals range boasts a GreenTag Level ‘A’ rating for quality sustainable building materials and GreenTag LCARate Silver certification. These certifications highlight the product's contribution to safeguarding biodiversity, ensuring the wellbeing of workers, and maintaining environmentally friendly manufacturing processes. Additionally, Karndean is proud to be the first Australian LVT supplier to achieve Best Environmental Practice PVC certification in 2015.

Fish Lane Apartments stand as a testament to modern design and sustainable building practices. By choosing Karndean LooseLay Originals Country Oak, the development team not only achieved the sophisticated and contemporary look they desired but also ensured a cost-effective and efficient installation process. This project showcases how thoughtful material selection can enhance both the aesthetic and functional aspects of urban living spaces, setting a new benchmark for residential developments in Brisbane.
