Creative Ways to Customize Your Wood Floor
Hardwood floors can give your home that welcoming and warm feeling. Adding special flooring features such as a border or inlay can provide a breathtaking touch to your floors.
Borders
This amazing feature can be used to build a custom frame effect that contrasts with the look of your room’s primary flooring area. They can incorporate multiple wood species, marble, stone, brass, nickel, stainless steel, and other metals to generate an unmatchable look to any room. Don’t forget to keep the scale of the border in proportion to the scale of the room, to ensure it meets your expectations.
Medallions
These unique additions bring a breathtaking look to any room. They can be found either pre-manufactured or custom-made at the job site. Several wood species can be paired together with other materials such as stone, metal, and even leather can be integrated with medallions. From a simple compass point to intricate patterns make sure to add inlaids after the floor is installed. What’s more, you can get inlays for fireplace wraps, stair risers or thresholds.
Mixing Materials & Species
By mixing wood with other materials like marble, metal, slate, stone, or tile, you can quickly create a custom look.
Also, try light colored stains to create a contemporary look. Or, for something more traditional use a warm, medium toned color. If you prefer a more formal décor, dark stain is the way to go. No matter what your wood species, custom stains can help you achieve a custom floor design.
Finally, exotic woods can add an entirely new look to any room and are available in a variety of colors and species.
