The trends in wood flooring
this year are sleek, stylish and
fun! They will bring warmth
and comfort to any home
making it the place to be this
summer!
If you’re less inclined
to risk these days and more
inclined to investment —
emotional and financial —
consider the beauty, tradition
and value of a hardwood.
When it comes to flooring, it remains the gold standard. ■

Check out the newest trend in wood
flooring, wide plank! By adding just
three inches of width to wood you can
give your space a whole new look!
Wider boards with rustic or Old
World looks tend to feature more
satiny (almost matte) finishes. With the
introduction of more subtlety in handscraped and distressed looks, higher
glosses and burnished glazes are gaining
attention. Exotic looks continue to
emphasize higher glosses, including
elegant “piano finish.”
Find a style with a dark espresso or
ebony finish to give your office a modern
and professional look , or a white washed
hand-scraped wood look reminiscent
of will a resort on the beach or your
lakeside summer escape.
If your looking for a neutral colored
wood flooring but still want to make a
statement, check out hardwoods in “50
shades of grey” that are sure to complete
any design beautifully .
