One of the hardest decisions you have to make when designing your home is the floors. Since they cover the majority of your house it is vital that you not only like the look of them but they feel comfortable to walk on. The kind of floor you chose can add light or warmth to your house. The right floor can make such a difference.
An Interior Designer is a great person to ask for help when deciding what floor to choose. Each room of the house will require different needs for the floor. For example, the Kitchen will need a floor that can be wiped easily from all those splashes and spills. In the bedroom, you might want a carpet. So when stepping out of bed in the morning, the first thing your feet touch is something nice and warm. In the bathroom, you might want something that can be wiped from the splashes of the bath.
Other points to take into account when deciding what floor to use is whether this room has a lot of foot traffic? Does this room reach high temperatures? Does the room have an echo? Is this a cold room in the house?
There are so many different types of flooring as well. Such as Carpets, ceramic tiles, porcelain, parquet, vinyl, laminate, and many others. How on earth does one decide on the floor? There are just so many options to choose from. Each blog we will go into different types of flooring and the pros and cons of them.
