The popularity of timber flooring


Timber flooring can also be called wood carpeting. This is where recycled wooden boards are installed on the floors of offices and even homes. It may also be known as plank flooring which is preferred by a lot of people for its artistic beauty.
Nothing equates to the beauty and elegance of a timber floor in a stylish home. The solid wooden floor is also easy to clean as it is smooth.
Timber flooring is usually very strong and it lasts for a long time. As such it is able to stand against a lot of use in terms of movement in and out of a room with such floors.
The floor also requires very little maintenance and can be sustained without replacement for a long time. Once it has faded and not looking up to per it can be re-polished to give it life. The floor can also be re-sanded to give it an original exquisite appearance.
Timber flooring is eco-friendly which uses natural materials. The flooring does not have any environmental effects on the people living in the home. Since it is a natural product it does not retain or produce any dirt that may contain allergic particles sensitive to some people.

Kristen Stewart for Chanel Paris/Dallas Pre-Fall 2014


What do you think of Karl Lagerfeld?

Kristen Stewart: 'He was born to fulfill the role he does, not just in the world of fashion but also in the arts. You know the reason people are intimidated by him is not because he projects that but because of what he has accomplished and everything that he represents. And then when you meet him, he's the opposite of intimidating, he is everything that my experiences taught me about true artists which is that they do what they do because they love it and they need to do it and they have fun doing it. Therefore, when I get to collaborate with those people it's nothing but everything that I want, all I want to do is to create things with people that are good at what they do and you sort of don't get better than him. And just to put it sort of dumbly, even just in the way that we were shooting, if you have to try too hard to do something it's probably because it's not right. Everything today [on the set] was like breathing, it was so easy and he knew as soon as he saw what he wanted, it was like 'done! 'It was effortless and he's awesome and he's so sweet.'

"It was exciting and just a major, major compliment," the 31-year-old says of gracing this year's cover. And especially, "I was happy for all the girls who would see me on [it] and feel a little more seen."

Born in Mexico and raised in Kenya, Nyong'o first equated beauty with what she saw on television: "Light skin and long, flowing, straight hair," she says. "Subconsciously you start to appreciate those things more than what you possess." 

Her mother, Dorothy, who is the managing director and head of PR for the Africa Cancer Foundation, "always said I was beautiful," Nyong'o adds. "And I finally believed her at some point."

Truly an inspiration to many that hard work, humbleness and a dream can make the world to know who you are and reward you for your efforts. You go girl! You make us and the world proud of your achievements!
