Without even knowing it, flooring can set the tone of your space. In fact, by simply changing the texture or colour of a floor, you can create a dramatic difference to your interior decor. Follow our blog to determine which tones in wooden flooring will best suit your style.

Pale and light – Using a lighter or neutral coloured palette will promote a sense of tranquility while making a room feel lighter and more spacious. Additionally, a lighter tone of wood will accentuate both modern and traditional styles of furnishings.

Note: Use contrasting colours in your furnishings to accentuate the wood colour in order to prevent a stark or pale, clinical feeling.

Yellow or Honey – Honey tones within flooring offer a traditional feel that will easily match any space. Since this is a popular choice, it is widely available in both solid and engineered flooring. Additionally, a lighter tone of flooring is a desirable selection since it will better disguise dirt and debris from very active homes with children or pets.

Red – Implementing reddish or darker cherry tones will add a luxurious and rich feel. The deeper the hues along with dramatic furnishings will make your space look quite expensive. If you desire a bold statement with your flooring, then consider incorporating deep red-toned floors, as it will create the intimate and exquisite feel that you desire.

Brown – Brownish tones within flooring may be one of the most common colour palettes in wood flooring today. By using brown coloured flooring, you will establish a comfortable and very natural-feeling space within your home. If you desire a more rustic feel, then try mixing a brown tone with textured wood, such as hand scraped flooring. Also, brown toned wood can vary in colour, so choose a lighter brown for a safer and more natural feel to your space or select deeper tones to create a luxurious statement.
