Well, two months are already passed in 2018, and we at Feel Good Floors think it's about time we talked about some of the upcoming trends in flooring, Lexington. Last year was an exciting year for floor coverings, and this year is shaping up to be even more eventful.
We are already seeing some trends emerging, and a few others that are fading into the background, so we thought it would be a good idea to offer up this quick guide to some of the hottest trends to keep an eye on this year. Let's see what's going on!
1. Narrow Plank Flooring is Back!
Over the last few years or so, there has been a dramatic shift toward more nostalgic styles in home decor, and floor coverings are no exception! One of the major results of this shift has been the return of narrow plank floor covering options to the forefront of desirability.
Narrow planks are a great way to recapture the feeling of old-school homes from the 1940's and 1950's, and they go great with blockier looking furniture or center islands and cabinetry. They are also a great way to give the impression of a roomier space in any room they are found. If you are looking to capture an air of nostalgia and want to have some fun with some retro furniture and accessories, narrow planks are a sure bet!
2. Look Out for Wide, Hand Scraped Planks!
If you are looking to jump on the nostalgia bandwagon, but would prefer a more rustic, old-world style over the aesthetic of the 40's and 50's, you might want to consider hand scraped wooden flooring with wider planks.
This is the perfect way to capture the appeal of a cozy cabin in the mountains, or a woodland cottage. The wide planks allow the detail of the wood grain and scraping to really take center stage, and when combined with a gold, brown and white color scheme, they really lay the rustic charm on thick. Add a few floral accents to really drive the charm home.
3. Get Creative With it!
Many people are opting for more artistic and exciting designs for their floor coverings this year. If you want something that will really pop and make people take notice, you might want to consider employing an artistic arrangement of your planks or tiles.
Whether it's a mosaic of tile, or hardwood patterned in chevron or herringbone formation, unique layouts are hitting the scene in a big way.
