The Right Light Wood Floor for Your Home or Business

Despite everyone raving about dark floors, the natural, light wood floors have remained as popular as ever. However, like dark wood floors, no two light wood floors are alike. There are varieties and shades to choose from. The design solutions are endless, but a T&G artisan can help you find out what shade of wood is right for your home or business.

Light wood goes with almost anything

Natural oak floors within every shade of gold and blonde will complement almost every color and style of furniture. Light floors are like a blank canvas for your home; whatever you have going on regarding decor and color palette in your home will go well with light wood floors.

How light do you want your floors?

A white finish for your floors can be a bold contrast to darker furniture or a deep color on your walls. However, you will need to treat, paint, and stain the wood if you want the whitewashed look for your floors. Whitewashed floors are perfectly suited for a modern home with Scandinavian design and decor.

If you want to maintain the natural look and integrity of the wood species you choose, then expect your floors to take on a more golden color as the floors begin to age.
