Danish artist Pernille Snedker Hansen

I’ve seen rather creative ways to transform hardwood floors, but Danish artist Pernille Snedker Hansen takes unique floor treatments to a whole new level with Marbelous Wood.

The technique of marbling, which is defined as the art of floating paints on a thickened liquid or water, patterning a design, and making a contact print, is an ancient art form. But, there is nothing ancient about Hansen’s process. Her use of vibrant colors is a spectacular twist on this traditional design approach.

Her contemporary design company, snedker°studio, has developed innovative surfaces for home design since 2009. Hansen describes her creativity as a challenge to change the way we look and experience the surfaces around us. Her main goal is to encourage people to enjoy the the details in unexpected materials.

I, for one, definitely enjoy the details of this unique flooring.
