Natural and neutral are two buzzwords for 2019’s decor style, flooring included. Current flooring trends are warm and earthy, inviting tones and textures that hearken back to Mother Earth. The flooring choices go on and on, but the most popular choices are also the most classic.
Wood and Faux Wood
Using wood to cover your floors is a tale as old as time, but the difference is that options are broader now than they’ve ever been. Eco-friendly and durable choices are also beautiful alternatives to real wood.
- Today's vinyl and laminate options are anything but your grandma’s flooring! These popular flooring options have received a makeover so they are not only heavy-duty and waterproof but still attractive and elegant.
- High variation tones blend with light and dark woods to make a dramatic impact on any room or hallway. These tones come in all ranges of color, from light greys and whites to dark browns and cherry tones.
- Gone are the days of glossy and perfect hallways: textures and distressed wood grain are making a comeback in a big way.
Carpet
A classy choice to warm up any room, carpet is not what it used to be. Made with families and heavy use in mind, carpets today are being made with resilient materials that are also soft and friendly.
- Waterproof carpet. Yes, you read that right! Shaw has come up with a technology called LifeGuard that will keep liquid at bay and not soak into the carpet.
- In addition to keeping the carpet dry, LifeGuard technology provides an easy-to-clean surface. Adios, germs!
- Carpet manufacturers have the environment in mind while creating material these days: Most carpet is being made from recycled materials.
Whether it is time to sell, buy or update, these classic choices for flooring are both practical and beautiful. They withstand the test of time and live beyond the current year’s trends. Educate yourself on what is practical in your situation to find a flooring solution that works for you.
