Need more Grande Empire Oak pics!

4 years ago

I love the warm white oak look (see pics for examples) and no lvp I’ve found is the one. The closest is COREtec grande empire oak but im worried it’ll be too gray. Here is the samples in the darker and lighter area of my house (same exact sample but looks so different in different areas!). I’ve seen some photos on Houzz but if there are more out there, that’s be helpful! Or if there is another color closer to what I’m looking for that you recommend, I’d appreciate it!

    It is quite natural for flooring to look different in parts of the house with different lighting and no pics of someone elses space will help you. IMO add lighting to the space that has low light and if you want to keep the color true use all LED 4000k lighting everywhere

    I would love to see more photos too. I also like the Grand Makkah but it looks more yellow in my sample than the Empire Oak.

    We just installed Empire Oak and it looks different depending on lighting. looks more warm in natural light and cooler in LED lighting. In LED lighting it does give of a smidge of gray.

    NEED HELP AND PHOTOS re LVP floor color selection. It’s such a critical choice, so all input is welcome!. We narrowed it down to Cortec. brand. Deciding on colors: Grande Empire Oak or Cyril, leaning forward toward the former. I want to stay away from the yellow tint Cyril now seems to have. Our decor is contemporary white, white cabinets, white marble slabs, blond furniture, with silver lighting fixtures, with a “wanna be beach house” theme. I love the floor in the photo with the bare white walls. Is that Grande Empire Oak? Alina did you choose the Grande Empire? Will you share the finished product?

    Lovely! Thank you!

    The photos make the floors seem light tan with gray accents vs the other way around giving it a warm feel. Is that accurate in person?

    I would agree with that assessment. They are light tan and the impressed wave, lines and swirls are what make it lean gray.

    Excellent! That’s just what I’m looking for! It’s so hard to know with only photos. Thanks for your input!!

    I am also looking for some warmth or tan base with gray clouds or wash. I know people bash gray wash but I love the softness yet like the warmth as well. Anyone try Deep Lake Oak?

    Does anyone have an extra board or Coretec Empire Oak LVP? I was going to use the leftover pieces for two 10”x4” vents but my contractor accidentally threw them out. Will happily pay for this!
