NO FLAWS FOR THESE FLOORS

TIMBER, TILES, CARPET ... AS LONG AS THEY COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER, FEEL FREE TO MIX UP YOUR TEXTURES FOR A BEAUTIFUL LIVING SPACE

Choosing flooring in your home can be one of the biggest renovation choices you will make.

When making choices around flooring, you can mix it up a bit. You don’ t have to stick to one texture. Clever mixes of different floorings, like timbers and tiles, can be really effective.

For high traffic areas like hallways, kitchens and family rooms, hard products, like laminates, work really well. For those luxury areas like lounge rooms and bedrooms, carpet is a better choice.

Finding floors that complement each other is the key to creating a beautiful living space. Firstly, select a tone that suits your house. For example, more traditional homes with rooms with high ceilings work well when warm tones are used.

It’s important to remember that a warmer colour doesn’t necessarily mean a darker tone.

When carpet and hard floor are close within a house, it’s vital to get the balance right between tones. The colour and tone of each flooring must come from the same family to avoid visual jarring.

It’s also important for the scotia timber to match either the flooring or the skirting. Watch Selling Houses Australia on Foxtel.
