Looked at a bunch of floor samples in a small room of the flooring company. As I browsed the selection, a total of 3 ladies and 1 guy came through to look at flooring too. Seems that picking flooring is mainly a woman's job! :p
Looked through some exotic woods and found this lovely tigerwood.
Realistically, we're picking between red (left) and white (right) oak with white oak being the harder of the two.
Then it's a matter of the type of cut - flat sawn(left) or quarter sawn (right).
We ended up with quartersawn white oak even though the GC and the flooring subcontractor kept saying that red oak was more beautiful. I just really don't care for the reddish tinge of the red oak.
