Choosing Wood or Laminate

Here are a few things that might help when choosing colors for a wood or laminate floor.

When choosing what type of wood or laminate you want it is important to decide what type of look you are going for. If you want a contemporary environment then pick an exotic wood/laminate such as Tigerwood or Brazillian Cherry. If you want a more rustic look perhaps go with a darker or more distressed wood.

Another important thing to keep in mind is don’t try to necessarily match the species or graining of your furniture or cabinets to your floor. Different woods/laminates can add visual interest and personality to your room. No matter how hard you try and match wood there will always be a few differences, so choosing a wood or laminate unlike existing wood in your room will keep your house from looking like you tried to match but missed the mark.
