There is nothing wrong with wanting your floor to be light and subtle. People prefer comfort as their top priority in their houses, and so they choose subtle flooring for an easy on the eye experience, so it does not become the center of attraction. Focusing on the artworks and fixtures might be as bold as you would want to go.
However, not everyone has the same preference. While some people like to keep their hardwood floors away from being the center point of attraction, others might like it the other way with bold patterns, intense colors, and designs.
How Hardwood Floors Can Be Bold
You can make your own statement by choosing the bold colors and patterns you like. Despite all, strong color and grain is the new trend. So don’t shy away to avoid the judgy eyes. You are the master of your home, so do what pleases you. So how do pattern flooring and strong color makes a statement?
Patterned Flooring
When laying new floors, you can install pattern flooring in many ways. These include random plank flooring, the most common and oldest form of patterned flooring. This includes placing the planks with random lengths to vary the joints. The goal is to end uniformity, so it looks more natural.
Another form of patterned flooring is the diagonal pattern. The floor does not necessarily have to be parallel to the walls. After all, how can you be bold without breaking some stereotypes? Diagonal patterns with planks placed at an angle make the room look bigger and work even better with bold colors.
Other more untraditional and bold patterned floors include:
- Chevron pattern
- Herringbone pattern
- Parquet pattern
Bold Color
Bold and strong colors will immediately make your floor look more apparent. If you want your floor to make a statement, going with bold colors should be your top priority. You can also get floors with grains for a firmer look. The base color of these floors is comparatively lighter, so the grains can become more apparent.
