When it comes to hardwood flooring patterns, there are several ways to go about it. Some people end up going with what looks familiar, which is fine. However, the more experimental home designers may work to create a stand-out look. Let’s explain.
The Value of Experimentation
Having hardwood flooring patterns that look a little odd can be a great conversation starter in your home. For example, when someone enters your house, they may be interested to know why you chose that pattern and where you obtained it.
Experimentation also allows for creativity. For some home designers, it’s like playtime for adults.
Ideas for Experimenting
Here’s a design that catches the eyes of anyone who visits.
Now, let’s discuss several ideas that can work for your home:
- Diagonal patterns: In a sea of hardwood flooring patterns that are horizontal or vertical, simply tilting the pattern can add some fascinating motion to your home.
- A mixture of widths and lengths: Combining several different styles of sizing can give a flowing and asymmetrical feeling to your room, which works well if you are the artistic type. Some people may dart their eyes across your floors to figure out if the pattern has one big picture.
- A spiral: This design gets the eyes moving and can be quite symbolic.
Consider Working With a Professional After Figuring Out Your Design
Do not be afraid to look up several unique patterns for your home. From a list to an image search, you can get some designs from which you can be inspired, allowing you to pick a design that best suits your personality.
With all that said, be sure to contact a professional. No matter how well-versed you are, a professional can turn your idea into a masterpiece.
