Walking The Grain @ Floor It Plus

On Monday, interior design enthusiasts joined Floor It Plus principals Garth ‘Gary’ Scott and Philippa Epstein for coffee and a tête-à-tête at their showroom in Barbican. It was the second in the series of Jamaica Observer Design Week Ja 2019 — presented by Kohler Conversations in Design, after the Ashley Homestore presentation on Saturday. Cups of Starbucks coffee in hand, guests listened attentively as co-principal Philippa Epstein shared her wealth of knowledge about South American hardwood in high-quality classic and modern finishes. With hardwood products like flooring, decking, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, doors (interior and exterior), staircase rungs, handrails and architectural millwork available and an extensive product line designed to customise and maintain the wood’s integrity, the sky is the limit at Floor It Plus, and all are invited to get decked out!
