Biscuit

Biscuit is Patricia Urquiola’s Natural Genius project for Listone Giordano, developed around softness: rounded, bevelled, and curved board outlines with a slight bombé surface that reframes herringbone, diagonal, and full-length compositions without copying historic parquet literally.

The Natural Genius Biscuit technical sheet describes a high-end two-layer engineered hardwood with Oak top layer and crossed-fibre birch plywood support meeting UNI EN 13489:2018. Specs list total thickness 12.5 mm, top layer 3–3.5 mm Oak, multilayer birch plywood support, approximate weight 9.4 kg/m², and glued installation with interlocking tongue and groove on all sides. Edges are bevelled; bevel size varies in curved board zones according to the convex section. Top–support gluing conforms to UNI EN 204 class D4 and JAS Type II.

Documented formats include Biscuit N°2 and Biscuit N°5 with published installation pattern diagrams. The English product page lists Oak Civita 1695 and Oak Pienza 1458 among available colours. Confirm active module SKUs and grades against the current Price List and GC 01 / FP 01 sheets.

Biscuit is appropriate where a softened board silhouette and compositional freedom are preferred over straight-edged strip or classic rectangular modular parquet.
