Wood textures

Herringbone parquet texture, seamless

In short

Short wood blocks in a 4:1 ratio, laid in a zigzag at 45 degrees: that is Cozy Herringbone Parquet, free under CC0. The chevrons repeat every 1.02 m, and ZIPs for 2K and 1K carry six PBR maps.

04About this texture

Herringbone reads as classic and a little formal: city apartments, hotel lobbies, old schools and dining rooms. Each block is 9 cm wide and 36 cm long with joints of 2 to 3 mm, and the warm mid wood tones vary from block to block so the zigzag stays lively. The tile is just over one metre, which means one repeat holds several full chevrons, and the height map covers 4 mm for crisp joint shadows. A kitchen table set and a vase stand on it in the example scene.

Good for

Dining rooms, hallways and city apartments
Hotel lobbies, museums and classrooms
Architectural visualisation with a classic floor

Questions and answers

What tiling value do I need for real block sizes?

One tile equals 1.02 × 1.02 m. Divide the floor size in metres by 1.02 to get the UV repeat, then every block measures 9 × 36 cm.

Are the thin joints still visible at 1K?

At 1K the texture has roughly one pixel per millimetre, so the 2 to 3 mm joints stay two or three pixels wide. For close cameras the 2K maps give cleaner edges.
