Shown here is Wicanders cork oak flooring that was recently installed in the Brothers of the Sacred Heart retirement community in Pascoag, R.I. Alfred Oakes of Ariss Design, who headed the remodeling project, said he chose Wicanders because he wanted to promote health and safety as well as the “warmth and vibrancy of Wicanders.” He chose Wicanders Series 1000 for the floor, while Ruby planks line the walls.
