Design Perspective: Laminate Flooring April 30, 2010
Posted by creatingyourspace in : Design Perspectives , trackback
One of our favorite posts on our blog is to examine room scenes and talk about what works and what could be improved. Let’s dive into this room scene and talk about what works and what can be improved!
What works:
- Note the dark walls and light floors. Great contrast!
- The way the floor extends from the dining room into the foyer helps both rooms appear larger.
- The installation direction of the laminate elongates the room.
- Oak is used on the floor and the dining furniture is a similar stain color. Nice blend.
- The white trim around the doors and windows compliment the window treatments and table decor.
Improvement ideas:
- On the one hand, it’s complimentary that the floors and the furniture are similarly stained, but adding an area rug to separate the two could add contrast and texture.
What are your thoughts? Do you like this room? What would you improve on?
