Glencairn: Oggie Engineered Oak & Brass Trims

The brief

A striking Glencairn home with vaulted timber ceilings and walls of glass framing the bay wanted a floor to match the setting, natural, warm and genuinely premium. Engineered oak was the clear choice: the real thing underfoot, with the stability a coastal home needs.

What we did

We supplied and installed Oggie engineered oak across the 30 m² living space, working the wide planks to make the most of the light and the views. The floor was finished with bespoke brass trims at the transitions, a small, deliberate detail that lifts the whole room and gives a crisp, tailored edge where the oak meets other surfaces.

Why engineered oak on the coast: you get a real oak surface that can be refreshed over the years, but on a stable multi-ply core that handles Cape Town’s humidity far better than solid timber. More in Engineered vs solid wood.

The result

A warm, natural oak floor that holds its own against the architecture and the view, finished to a premium standard, right down to the brass.
