Herringbone direction

Options
Putting herringbone into my house but unsure what is best direction. My focal point is my media wall but this would go against towards the light, was thinking this direction. Hallway lies to left of drawing

    Mine goes the other way.

    if you look at Stacey Solomon’s instagram feed, she has herringbone throughout her house, it may help you decide.

    I only have it in the kitchen/ dinner. Tbh I don’t think it matters that much. It’s one of those things you spend ages deciding but the finished result looks good either way.

  • I don’t think it matters too much. We had it pointing away from you as you walk in from the hall because that seemed to make sense. It also points towards the tv but I didn’t think about that. Not a great photo but it is centred on the door just showing on the right  
  • Very nice, decided to lay it towards the windows and burner, fingers crossed

    I think that's the right idea. The visual effect should be at its best for people entering the room. When you're sitting down watching TV you'll mostly be looking at the TV not the floor!
