Dabbling your hand in home remodeling projects is an excellent way to keep busy while practicing social distancing. It's also the least you can do now that you're stuck at home. To catch you up on some of the latest interior design styles, we picked up on some stunning flooring ideas that have dominated this year's market. According to the flooring trends, aesthetics, comfort feel, and durability are some of the most requested features in modern flooring. That said, check out any these styles and adorn your floor today.
1. Nordic Whitewashed floors
Starting off the list is the stylish, uncluttered Nordic whitewash design that should brighten up your room. The naturally occurring Scandinavian wood appears bleached, limed, oiled and waxed as it is.
Some may add that it appears unfinished, but if you're going for the classy simple fresh look, then here are some designs blend well with it.
You can use your pale colored Nordic flooring with the farmhouse, coastal or beach decor. However, for amazing results, it's important to keep the wall colors neutral. You can get a set of matching coffee and dining tables with a whisper of the fjords to really sell the look. Your floor will pop out and really shine its way through, especially if you've got a lot of living space.
2. Unique Patterns
Just like feature wall grabs your attention when you walk in a room, unique flooring patterns elevate the otherwise boring room. Let your imagination run wild with different options such as herringbone and chevron patterns that bring out a uniform zig-zag contemporary look.
However, if you want to go for a simple, elegant design, you can check out the parquet pattern that creates a grid look on your floors. If you want a bit of individuality, then the diagonal running boards is the way to go. Installing boards diagonally as opposed to straight patterns may give the room a classy, slightly more modern vibe.
3. Gray and Gray Blends
The color gray, like most neutral colors, goes with just about anything. Gray flooring often gives a home a modern contemporary style. However, different clients and interior designers differed on the shades of gray to use. As a result, technological advancements have allowed for the staining of hardwood floors with different gray blends.
The customized gray stains can be blended with some shades of brown and beige. Do keep in mind that the more brown your hardwood floor looks, the more contemporary it is. You can even blend the walls with a lighter shade of gray and warm things up a bit with green, red, orange finishing.
4. Wide Plank Wood
Leaving the best for last is the use of wide plank wood. They typically measure anywhere between 5 to 12 inches wide and even higher. As you can imagine, there aren't a lot of trees that offer that kind of width, harvesting it will involve cutting it off by its trunk. Since the branches are useless, availability is much limited for this kind of wood, which makes it a tad bit expensive than the rest of the options.
Wide plank wood flooring will spruce up your home, especially if you were going with the rustic decor design. A highly textured wide plank with a much darker tone is much appreciated with this design.
However, you'll also find that knots and imperfections found on vintage wide plank flooring with lighter shades much are suitable for larger spaces. They tend to give the room an airy open feeling.
