I am putting down a floor in a C shaped corridor. The landing off the top
of the stairs is approximately 1.5m wide and 5m long - the stairs lands
roughly in the middle. There are two corridors running off each end of the
landing at 90 degrees, these are also about 4m long and around 1m wide.
What do people think is the best orientation for the boards? Thanks in
advance.


This is one of those cases where I'd do something crazy like curving the
flooring to match the C shape... Obviously it's completely custom work but
I'm not always good about controlling my woodworking urges.


Are you suggesting he steam bends the wood strips to curve around the
corners...? That I'd like to see!
