Real hardwood floors are beautiful and timeless. Even flooring that mimics hardwood floors can give you the same look and feel if you are on a tighter budget. Real or a luxury vinyl imitation, hardwood can come in many different designs and colours to customize your home.
Floor Plan Inc. in Edmonton is a professional and full-range flooring company. They share some hardwood floor trends to consider in your home:
Wide planks
No matter the colour you choose, the plank-style plays just as big a role in the overall visuals. Narrow, slim planks are the traditional look, but wide planks are gaining popularity. The look creates fewer seams and creates the illusion of having more floor space. It’s a great way to add some spaciousness to a small bedroom or bathroom. It also highlights more of the natural grains and hardwood patterns, which keeps the aesthetic focus on natural design.
Dark or blended tones are in
Dark colours and shades are starting to return in colour trends, and hardwood is no exception. Instead of light oak floors, darker shades like blacks and dark greys are becoming popular. Dark floors paired against lighter walls and other décor can look stunning. With luxury vinyl hardwood, you also get the option to blend tones. Instead of a pure dark floor, mix in touches of greys and white for a unique floor style you want. The complementary blend helps add some lightness. Even natural shades of brown can be blended for a more earthy result.
Whitewash is also in
Not all homeowners want dark floors, or not all interior décor complements such a bold addition. That’s where the whitewash look is a great alternative. It focuses more on drawing-in cooler tones or light greys, whites, and subtle browns. The result is still just as visually interesting and just as complementary to most interior décor. Like dark floors, it can also come in a high variation to add even more blend of light and slightly darker tones. To get the perfect fit in your home, see what accent colours and shades are in the room. Blues and beiges will pair very well with the cooler grey tones of a light whitewashed floor.
Add some texture
Texturing a floor adds another element of visual interest, but also a physical touch. Even luxury vinyl can have realistic textures applied. Hand-scraped texturing adds waves to the wood pattern that adds a more authentic and custom look. Distressed is another popular look that reveals more wood grain and adds a distinctly rustic effect. Paired with lighter wood and wide planks, it’ll transform your home into a cozy, traditional style.
