Hardwood Flooring Design Trends for New Homes

One way to keep older homes relevant is by incorporating updates that align with current design trends. Hardwood floors last for years and only require staining every few decades.

For homeowners looking to upgrade their flooring, installing new hardwood floors makes a wise investment. At In Home Flooring, we are happy to answer your questions and offer design options to fit your style or current trends.

New Home Hardwood Floor Trends

Floors with Gray and Brown Blends

Today’s hardwood floor stains offer a wide range of color options. Some popular stain finishes combine grays and browns to produce unique colors. One of the most popular options is charcoal. It gives homeowners the versatility to decorate with a variety of color tones while maintaining a modern design appeal.

Extra Wide Planks

Many new custom homes include extra wide planks. Installing extra wide planks creates fewer seams on the floors, which produces a cleaner and bigger appearance. Extra wide planks also allow homeowners to achieve a unique look for larger open floor plan areas.

Alternative Flooring Products

While hardwood looks and functions great, not everyone has the budget for hardwood flooring. With today’s versatile products, more homeowners are selecting products that give the appearance of wood at a lower cost.

Vinyl plank flooring, some laminates, and certain tiles mimic the look of wood. In fact, it can be difficult to distinguish between alternative products and real hardwood floors at first glance.

Ultra-Matte Finishes

More homeowners are selecting finishes without sheen. The ultra-matte finish offers a more laidback and timeless motif. Ultra-matte finishes are available in many styles and colors, including traditional, contemporary, and rustic.

Area Rugs with Jewel Tones

After installing hardwood floors, homeowners are upgrading their area rugs. Popular options include jewel tones and bold patterns. The timeless appeal of wood floors offers a neutral palette for creativity to shine through in the choice of an area rug.

Installing hardwood floors provides homeowners with numerous benefits. Hardwood floors offer a classic design choice that appeals to a wide range of styles. Installing hardwood floors, especially in a luxury or custom home, enhances the design appeal.
