My experience from the moment I walked into One Stop Flooring and met with Paymon until my flooring installation was complete was excellent. I told Paymon what my budget was and he did a great job of working within it. Both he and the installer, Russell, were there when they said they would be and very professional during all our appointments.

Flooring trends are constantly changing; if you are homeowner, keeping up with the latest greatest can be a bit frustrating, especially if you are trying to create a look that is economical and that stands the test of time. The flat brown look is out, no one knows whether imperfections are in, and it’s a toss-up as to which material looks and feels the best for you and your home.
Thanks to recent design polls, there are some emerging trends for flooring that economical, functional, and beautiful. With a combination like this, who can say no to a bit of upgrading to freshen up your living space. Check out these top 7 flooring solutions for your modern home:
This is not your regular hardwood flooring. Fumed wood flooring has a vibrant color and grainy texture that does not need to be stained, but fumed as part of the finishing process. Wood slats are placed in an airtight chamber with gaseous ammonia; as a result of this interaction, the wood undergoes a color change. No two pieces end up precisely the same, giving your floor a depth of color and character that goes unmatched when compared to other types of hardwood flooring.
Not everyone prefers deep glossy browns and grey hues of traditional wood floors. Some prefer the whitewashed look of blanched or bleached wood to round out a whole room theme. The chemically treated wood in a blanched floor has been bleached, so that much of the original color is lost, leaving a whiter and brighter look. Existing wood floors can be blanched to achieve this look, or you may purchase pre-treated wood and install a new and beautiful floor if preferred. Either way, you choose to upgrade, it’s going to be a beautiful addition to your home.
Distressed wood floors are brand new, but they are treated to take on a rustic look that looks as if it’s had loving care. Depending on the degree of distress you prefer, you can opt for something that looks slightly worn at the edges, or pieces of flooring that have character added to them in the form of swirl and kerf markings. The whole look of a distressed floor has an old country charm to it.
Some people prefer the look of distressed concrete in their homes; the look is similar to that of distressed wood, but the material used to create the look is more durable. Distressed concrete does give off a more modern feel to it; this type of flooring would be ideal in modern and contemporary homes.
If the traditional layout of wood or laminate flooring is not unique enough for you, then consider the look of a herringbone or chevron pattern to spice up your decor. This look is becoming increasingly more popular in kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways; anywhere that the homeowner wishes to make a big impression on visitors and guests. Peruse any interior design magazine or online article, and you’re bound to see beautiful examples of how patterned flooring can add to the uniqueness and beauty of your home.
The look of black and white might be vintage, but it’s also clean and luxurious. Small tiles with bold and graphic patterns make a statement, and they are relatively easy to care for. Adorn your living space with this look on the floor that extends to the walls of your kitchen and bathroom, and you’ll achieve a one-of-a-kind look that others will covet and copy.
What’s with all the wood on this list? Perhaps we’re trying to get back in touch with our roots through our flooring. Technology in flooring has become so advanced that manufacturers can now recreate the look of real wood onto surfaces like laminate and luxury vinyl plank flooring, satisfying almost every homeowner and the unique desires they have for creating their look.
For those with a desire to create a bold and daring look, using their flooring as their own personal art canvas, it may be time to consider creating a look with graphic tiles. The sky’s the limit on design using innovative technology, images can be directly applied to any surface, or geometric designs can create a look that is both functional and beautiful. Unleash your creative side and express yourself through your unique use of your floor as artwork in your home.
When it comes to your floor, you are the ultimate authority with respect to how you choose to express yourself. There is a unique and beautiful look for every style, preference, and budget, and there are endless possibilities for choice and color. Unleash your inner design diva and have fun with the process, you are creating a more beautiful home!
