Thank you for the additional information. Clear and unambiguous is the statement that the influence or influences for the straight-line shading over several elements must have taken place on site, in your house. Because the individual elements can hardly be laid from the packaging in such a way that this straight border line can form. Such discolorations, let's rather call them "shadow effects", are either due to sunlight on the parquet wood (which you have already excluded) or due to moisture. Now you will ask: Why moisture? It is to be suspected that a covering of some kind lay on the parquet over a large area, which unintentionally acted as a vapor barrier. Such phenomena, as now present on the parquet surface, however, are usually not permanent and neutralize themselves in everyday life. So just wait for the next 1 to 2 weeks and then report again what or to what extent something has changed. Greetings: KlaRa
