Hardwood floors are classic, yet we are constantly finding new ways to personalize and customize hardwood floors. No one wants to have the exact same floor as everyone else. What better way to put your stamp on your hardwood floors than to literally put a stamp on it with a medallion, inlay, or accent.
Putting your stamp on hardwood floors
If you are trying to elevate your hardwood floors, think about designing an inlay, medallion, or accent to adorn your floors. These decorative additions to a hardwood floor can really raise the elegance and the grandeur of hardwood floors. A room will become much more special and unique with a personalized pattern, crest, or image beautifully installed to flow with the rest of the your floors and the entire room.
Placing the inlay, medallion, or accent
Where you place the inlay, medallion, or accent is essential. You want it to have a positive impact on the room, improving the flow and ambiance. These adornments should be specifically placed so that they compliment the room. If you’re spending the time and money to have an inlay in your floors, make sure that you aren’t covering it with furniture, or hiding it away. It should be displayed so that it is the focal point of the room.
Size matters
The size of the inlay, medallion, or accent should be proportionate to the room. If it’s too small, it will get overlooked and may seem like an afterthought. Too big and it will become a distraction. Find the right proportion that will compliment the room and the design.

Inlays, medallions, and accents will often have to be handcrafted which is part of their charm and appeal. Make sure you work with contractors that are experienced and detail oriented.
