Flooring is central to the overall style of each room in your home. Sometimes, though, flooring can be lost in the shuffle of picking other design elements. That is why we have put together a list of seven of our favourite flooring trends to help inspire you for your home renovation in Vancouver.

7 flooring trends to consider for your home renovation in Vancouver

1. Bleach it out

Light flooring is in for home renovations in Vancouver this year. Consider going with a light stain or bleached look. If you are on the more adventurous side, you could also consider pickled wood.

2. Harden up

Hardwood is the biggest flooring trend of 2018. New homes are going for hardwood – everywhere. An elegant look like this is the perfect way to freshen up your home and add value if you want to sell soon.

3. Go graphic

Graphic tile was popular last year and promises to continue to be for the foreseeable future. It is the perfect choice if you are looking for a bold style choice for a room. Watch out if you are looking to sell soon, however, as it is a specific look that not all buyers may be interested in.

4. Keeping it cool

Cool coloured flooring brings a pop to your home renovation in Vancouver. At the same time, blue hues can bring a relaxing vibe, making them perfect to bathrooms and bedrooms. Cool coloured flooring is also flexible as you can achieve the look with a variety of materials.

5. The classic

Another look that can be realized in a number of different materials is the black and white trend. This style is ideal for someone who wants to add a classic element to their home renovation in Vancouver. For a touch of whimsy, go for a blocky black and white tile design like this one.

6. Mop top

One of the most interesting floor trends right now is carpet tiling. These pieces are laid like tile, but have the texture of carpet on top. We love that this trend feels innovative yet comfortable. Think about adding it somewhere like a rec room or in a child’s bedroom.

7. For the record

This trend is not about laying records on your floor… It is about using vinyl flooring. Vinyl flooring comes in almost an infinite number of colours and styles, including a wood look. It is more resilient than wood though. It is family and pet friendly, stain and water resistant, and extremely comfortable underfoot. If you have little ones and want a softwood look, we strongly recommend vinyl for your next home renovation in Vancouver.
