It’s easy to love a hyped design style or color palette. But before you invest large sums into a trendy floor, take a few moments to consider your likes, lifestyle, and long-term goals. Do you see yourself in the same home with a checkerboard floor laminate twenty years later?
A trendy floor can limit your design choices. What’s ‘in vogue’ now might seem outdated in five years, meaning you’ll have spent all this time and money for nothing. Also, if you’re planning to move houses, remember that a potential buyer may neither appreciate the floor nor be willing to pay for flooring remodeling.
We recommend you pick flooring designs that stand the test of time. Classic, elegant floors are timeless and can blend in with multiple interior styles.
