Wood Effect Porcelain – Swanpool

A Warm, Natural & Practical Family Home Installation
Product Spotlight: Cabin Wood-Effect Porcelain Planks
For this stylish family home in Swanpool, Falmouth, we supplied our Cabin wood-effect porcelain tiles, chosen for their realistic grain, natural texture, and warm tones. In the kitchen area, the homeowners opted for the Cabin White 90 x 22.5 cm porcelain plank—a durable, practical alternative to natural timber. The soft, warm tones of the tile complement the beautifully crafted coloured handmade kitchen units and feature island.
In other areas of the home, the clients selected the same Cabin plank tile in Beige 22.5 x 90 cm natural matt for both kitchen and living spaces. Its natural, gentle wood texture adds warmth while staying easy to maintain—perfect for busy family living.
The Challenge: A Consistent, Warm & Family-Friendly Floor
The homeowners wanted a floor that blended durability with a natural look—something practical for family life while still offering warmth and texture. Real wood wasn’t suitable due to moisture, wear and underfloor heating, so the solution needed to provide performance without compromising aesthetics.
The Cabin porcelain plank tile provided the perfect balance: warm, convincing wood style with the strength and ease of porcelain.
The Installation: Wood-Effect Planks Laid in a Natural Random Bond
Our team supplied and installed the wood-effect porcelain tiles across the kitchen, living areas, and bathrooms. The porcelain planks were laid in a random bond pattern to replicate the natural variation of real wood flooring, resulting in a soft, organic flow from room to room.
Underfloor heating was installed beneath the tiles to provide comfort and warmth throughout—ensuring the surface is always pleasant underfoot. Click here to speak to us about our undertile heating mat kits.
The Result: A Warm, Modern & Natural-Looking Family Home
The finished installation has transformed this Falmouth family home into a warm and cohesive living space. The soft wood tones complement the handmade kitchen units perfectly, creating a practical yet beautifully balanced interior. Across the bathrooms, a mix of patterned and plain porcelain tiles kept the spaces feeling bright, fresh, and uplifting.
The result is a home that feels natural, stylish, and built for everyday living—exactly what the clients wanted.
