Grading Explained
Despite the plethora of in-depth information regarding each species and their grading options, here's exactly what you need to know.
Reintroducing the Stockholm Collection
A bright and airy color palette, minimal texture, long lengths, and a wide range of plank widths makes the Stockholm Collection a perennial classic and a favorite among architects and designers who seek simple and timeless materials.
Introducing the Terra Collection
The Terra Collection showcases the highest level of hardwood flooring craft in North America. It is our most honest, least tampered with collection of hardwood floors. American White Oak, Black Walnut, and Eastern White ash are all featured here. Unrefined, undisturbed, unblemished.
Siena Way
Select grade black walnut flooring in our Juniper finish creates a warm glow while maintaining the richness of walnut in this atypical home designed by Plus Development Group.
Introducing the Volant Collection
Volant as a collection celebrates the exceptional dimensions and natural splendor of European Oak. Combining one hundred years of experience in milling and craftsmanship with state-of-the-art equipment and meticulous finishing techniques results in a beautiful range of wood products.
Introducing the Atelier Collection
Developed as an ode to “the process”, our Atelier Collection explores various textures, colors, and finishing techniques, used to highlight the woods natural beauty, while adding just enough je ne sais quoi to create truly unique hardwood floors on European Oak.
MADERA Sips
MADERA Sips takes place on the first Thursday of every month, starting on May 5th at 6pm. Learn about our product offerings, meet our team, and enjoy a tasty beverage with us.
Bellgave Place
Nine-inch wide MADERA Oak floors provide the perfect grounding element in this Woods+Dangaran and Saota Architects project as they appear in every inch of living space, including the kitchens and bathrooms.
Void House
When the team at SAW// Spiegel Aihara Workshop started working on a mid-century home at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the Silicon Valley, they opted to buck the trend of demolish and replace. Instead, they chose to work with the prominent (and highly inefficient) rooflines to create a home based on carving away at spaces instead of adding on to them. The beautiful result speaks for itself.
Union Square Loft
This loft renovation by Worrell Yeung re-imagines living spaces in New York City. Our 12" wide Northern White Oak floors fill an entire floor in a landmark early 20th-century garment building in Union Square.
Carla Ridge Home
This stunning home by the team at Woods + Dangaran located in the Trousdale Estates in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains expresses timeless design with the quality of the finishes selected for the project, including travertine floor slabs and our seven-inch-wide prime grade European Oak in Trä.
Moore House
We engineered reclaimed teak in one-and-a-half-inch wide planks to match the earth-colored ceramic tile, brass plated hardware, and dark marble used throughout this Los Feliz, CA home designed by Woods + Dangaran. This project was an Architizer + finalist in 2021.
Flagship Showroom Opens in NYC
MADERA is proud to announce the opening of our flagship showroom in the heart of the Flatiron District in New York City. Situated in a landmarked building (circa 1843) in the “Ladies’ Mile Historic District”, 909 Broadway features a historic storefront and façade and is designed in collaboration with Métier Design House.
The Widest Plank
Our search for the right partner to design and make hardwood floors of incredible dimensions has taken us both far and wide, literally and figuratively. On a recent trip to Europe, we met Nobel Flooring in Belgium who has the skill and zeal to craft the kind of wood floors we have always imagined making with lengths up to 40 feet (12m) and 24 inches in width (60cm).
Cooking with a Wood Fire
Our co-founder James is the Master when it comes to cooking with a wood fire, so we decided to ask him a few questions in the hopes to learn a few tricks for ourselves.
