One major influence of how the floor will look is the lighting in your home. Artificial lighting, LED daylight or natural lighting vs. Yellow Halogen/LED will change the color visual of your hardwood vs natural lighting coming through windows. The Malibu Wide Plank French Oak Rincon is a true whitewash character grade visual featuring 7.5" Wide Planks x 74.8" Lengths with 50% of planks in each case being full length, and a 2mm Sliced Face Veneer which adds to the gorgeous character in every plank. The artificial lighting in your home can be one of the major influences on the color of your floor. Much the same way a can of paint applied to two different rooms (one that receives limited natural light and another that's flooded with sunshine) will look different, your flooring will have a different appearance depending on the lighting in your home. And because natural light changes in intensity, the time of day will also have an impact on the way your flooring looks. Incandescent and soft white fluorescent bulbs intensify warm colors but tend to fade cooler colors, while halogen and full-spectrum fluorescent bulbs most closely mimic the bright light of natural sunlight. Bright colors look best in bright white LED, fluorescent or halogen bulbs. Darker colors and rich textures tend to look best under accent lights and duller bulbs. Suggest experimenting with different lighting options and the pink may go away. Halo makes a great LED 6" Can retrofit with 5 Selectable temperatures from 2700-5000k. All Malibu Wide Plank Hardwood Flooring is natural, sustainable, renewable and recyclable and the flooring of choice among the majority of homeowners.
