Choosing the right floor can help you add richness and enhance your décor in any room.

It doesn’t matter what kind of decorating you like; you will always find a wide variety of choices when it comes to hardwood floors. You no longer have to settle for the same look as everyone else, as there are many types of wood species, stains, widths, and finishes in the market. Whether you like beveled edges, no bevels, or wide planks – or if you like dark colors or light colors – there is always something to please everybody’s tastes.

Here are some great tips you should consider when thinking about your hardwood floor patterns:

1. Add depth and dimension

You can add depth and dimension to any room with just some lighting or light-colored walls. Complement the interior decoration with a dark, rich hardwood floor and add some subtle changes in graining. Choose exotic wood species or hand scraped wood with a dark stain to help you make your floor stand out.

2. Brighten the rooms

Using a natural colored hardwood can make the room look bright and clean, while at the same time making the room appear more open and spacious. Maple, natural white oak, or some less grainy woods are an outstanding choice for these kinds of interiors.

3. Create a distinctive expression

Exotic hardwoods provide a broad range of grains, colors, and textures that add a timeless and distinct visual appeal to any interior design.

4. Add a wood border

Another way to add a distinctive flair to any room with hardwood floors is to insert a wood border. Borders are usually chosen to add an accent the floors and give a sophisticated appearance to plain designs.
