Stylish flats
It’s important in any interior design project to make sure the floor is as fabulous as the rest of the room, because in most cases, once the floor is down, it stays to stay. It is the least changed aspect of any room. This article looks at the materials and colors that make up current trends.
Wood
Or, more accurately, “engineered wood” flooring. Depending on how much hard work you want to do on your floor, you can purchase either finished or unfinished engineered wood flooring. You can choose to float it, glued on, or even nailed down. It has all the benefits of a real hardwood floor, but is more durable. Often, it comes with the tongue and groove already in place for easy adjustment. Most types are also suitable for laying over the top of underfloor heating systems. If you choose this type of herringbone floor it is the new stripe.
Carpet
Bluish gray is the color for a solid color rug in 2014. This color will go with most interior design styles, allowing it to draw attention to eye level. With this in mind, if you’re looking for a splash of solid color in a wall-to-wall rug, earthy colors like browns and spicy reds and golds.
There will also be an increase in demand for patterned rugs that consist of a lot of texture or eye-catching geometric designs like squares.
The economy also appears to have an impact on carpet choice, as carpet tiles are on the rise. This is probably due to the fact that you can easily replace tiles that have been damaged by kids’ arts and crafts activities or the night party.
If you are looking to renovate your floor without making such an investment, choose a large rug, remembering that texture should be at the center of your final choice.
Vinyl
There are a wide variety of styles and types of vinyl available, making it a good choice to show off your individuality, which is an emerging trend in interior design this year. It is a much cheaper option than stone or ceramic tiles and even today it can be purchased as a pre-cut tile, whereas previously it was only available as a large sheet and was laid in a similar way to a carpet. Once again, improvements in the production of this material mean that the quality of the finish has improved greatly in recent years.
