Specified by renowned interior designer Lucy Eadie for a dining room in Hampstead, London, De Ferranti’s Chocolate Leather Brogue Briquettes from the Hide Collection create a floor that feels warm, lived-in and unmistakably luxurious. Antiqued and distressed, the leather brings depth, texture and a quiet heritage character to an intimate space.

The Chocolate Brown Leather Briquette floor was selected for its rich tone and brogue-like surface detailing, delivering a tactile, craft-led finish that sits beautifully with period furniture and layered colour schemes. In this scheme, the chocolate leather works in harmony with the aged oak dining set and verdigris-toned walls, creating a modern-classic atmosphere that feels both grounded and elevated.

nLeather briquette flooring offers a distinctive alternative to stone or timber, providing a softer visual warmth while still reading as architectural and structured through the briquette module. As a natural hide finish, subtle variation and patina are part of the appeal, allowing the floor to age gracefully and develop character over time.

nThis Hampstead project is one of many De Ferranti installations using our Hide Collection - bespoke leather tile surfaces designed for statement interiors where texture, tone and material story matter.
