A process for achieving decor on surface elements (1) which comprises a
decorative upper layer (2) and a supporting core (5). A segmentation
pattern is selected, the segmentation comprising at least two decor
segments on each surface element (1). The shape of the surface element
(1), as seen from above, is selected from the group; triangular,
quadratic, rectangular, heptagonal, pentagonal and octagonal. The shape of
the segments is selected from the group triangular, quadratic,
rectangular, heptagonal, pentagonal, octagonal, circular, elliptical,
perturbed and irregular. A segment decor is selected for each segment. The
segment decor is selected from the group; digitised and simulated
depiction of different kinds of wood, minerals and stone, different kinds
of fabric, art work and fantasy based decor. Each selection is made on a
terminal where the selections emanates from a data base. The selection is
visualised via the terminal.
