As the fall season hits, many are looking for ways to update their homes—and installing new floors is on homeowners’ minds all over the Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia metro area. North American hardwood floor retailer, Lumber Liquidators, has released its list of top hardwood floor trends in response to the growing demand, and we’ve rounded up their top predictions so you can get all the latest in industry developments in one place.
Matte finishes have been popular in Europe for years, but the low-gloss hardwood floor trend is beginning to spread locally as homeowners seek low-maintenance flooring options for their homes. This type of finish can easily hide minor scratches, dirt, dust, and pet fur and is known to create a warm and inviting look.
Wood floors in tones of gray have become especially popular in 2014 and, as far as hardwood floor trends go, are only expected to continue gaining popularity in the upcoming year. Homeowners are choosing from a wide range of gray hues from darker selections to softer, more neutral ones.
Installing exotic hardwoods, like Bamboo and Brazilian Walnut, is becoming trendier as homeowners seek more contemporary design options and environmentally friendly materials.
More and more, homeowners are looking to make bold statements with their hardwood floors. The flooring specialists at Elegant Floor Service can help you choose the right species and color to help you accomplish this look, with an emphasis on a defining grain.
Just as bolder, more contemporary looks are gaining in popularity, so are classic, traditional wood floor styles. Those looking for a warmer, more inviting style are opting for hardwood floor species like rustic shades of Oak for a timeless and cozy look.
