Shaw cosmopolitan maple - black hardwoodOne of the coolest hardwoods I've seen is Shaw's Cosmopolitan Maple.  It's sleek and stylish and fabulous all over. 

 

It actually comes in black - pure black.  It's darker than ebony stained floors and actually looks like they are painted black.

 

Cosmopolitan Maple is also available in a pure white which also looks super stylish.  Unlike white washed oak (which is rather dated), this has a modern look and again looks like it is painted. 

 

It's really cool.

 

Shaw cosmopolitan maple - white hardwoodThis hardwood is prefinished, so it's easy to install and has a tough outer layer so it will last a long time. Cosmopolitan Maple comes in a wide plank (5 inches) for a stylish and sophisticated look.

 

And, because it's prefinished hardwood and because black and white is so chic, you can create some fun designs with this dramatic hardwood.  For example, you can have black as the main color and then create a white border...or even 2 rows of borders.  Or, you can make the floor striped with every other board alternating black and white.

 

Shaw's Cosmopolitan Maple is fabulously chic!

Call me a traditionalist, call me old fashioned. Even though I am a big fan of Debbie Gartner, I like natural hardwood floors!

I understand Donald.  This might be the perfect flooring choice for someone living in a loft downtown that prefers a comtemporary style.

Donna Very Cool...I used to have bleached in my older home which was more modern...now we are more traditional but the black would look great in a NYC loft!!!

Also, my friend Anna, Art in Motion! Sea Cliff NY has a Memorial Day salute for all.

Donna - Thank you so much for reblogging and spreading the word.  This is definitely a style choice...super chic (but not for everybody).
