If you haven't already purchased your flooring material, I encourage you to reconsider the use of engineered flooring. The increased stability of engineered wood versus solid wood makes it a better choice for wide widths.

Suggest you borrow several samples and look at them under different lighting and room scenarios. The colors or hues may change depending on the warmth of the light, or on its proximity to other colors. I did it with Revwood Plus Asher Gray Oak. The variations you noted in your preferred style may actually help tie your room colors together. If you can afford it (money and time-wise), buy a box yourself to test it out. Good luck.

Hello! Looking for pictures of this maple laminate flooring installed in ”wheat oak.” We are considering it for our kitchen remodel but I haven’t been able to find pictures outside of the stock photos and samples aren’t available. Thanks! https://www.wayfair.com/home-improvement/pdp/mohawk-8-x-47-x-8mm-maple-laminate-flooring-mhk1103.html?piid=36402317

Did you end up installing Chamois oak? I'm considering it for my new home.
