At 50Floor, we offer a range of bold flooring ideas for your every need. Explore some attractive choices below—these trendy options look timeless in modern and historic homes alike.
1. Geometric Patterns
Geometric patterns are a fantastic way to infuse visually striking element into your home.
Geometrics can add sophistication and individuality to any space, whether you choose a bold wood flooring pattern for your living room or an elaborate design for your bathroom.
Concrete floors with geometric designs can also create a sleek, industrial look that is both contemporary and chic. By choosing geometric patterns, you can transform any space into a unique and stylish haven.
2. Dark Wood Flooring
Engineered hardwood floors from 50Floor contain layers of real wood over plywood, making them resistant to moisture.
This water resistance allows you to install wood floors in kitchens and other rooms where moisture can be an issue. Dark wood floors in walnut, cherry, hickory and other species can contrast beautifully with paler walls and ceilings for a dramatic look.
For a bold color floor, you can choose dark wood floors with wider planks or arrange your flooring in herringbone pattern for a unique look.
Dark wood statement floors look especially sophisticated in living rooms and even bedrooms—spaces where you may want the warmer appearance of wood but with an eye-catching style.
3. Herringbone Wood Floor
A herringbone wood floor is a timeless choice that exudes elegance and charm. This classic pattern features a distinctive v-shaped design, created by alternating the direction of the wood planks.
The result is a visually captivating floor that can enhance the aesthetic of any room. Herringbone wood floors are particularly popular in living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways, where they can complement a variety of decorating styles.
It can give your house a sophisticated touch and a unified aesthetic that ties the space together flawlessly, regardless of how modern or traditional it is.
Tips for Balancing Bold Patterns
When incorporating bold patterns into your flooring, it’s important to balance them with neutral elements to create a harmonious and visually appealing space.
Here are some tips to help you achieve that balance:
Choose a Neutral Base
Start with a neutral base to ground the room. Neutral-colored walls, furniture, and accessories can provide a calming backdrop that allows your bold flooring to shine without overwhelming the space.
This approach makes sure that the bold pattern becomes a focal point rather than a source of visual chaos.
Limit the Pattern Variety
To maintain a cohesive look, limit the variety of patterns in the room. Stick to one or two bold patterns and balance them with solid colors or subtle textures. This strategy helps to create a unified design that is both stylish and manageable.
Additional tips for balancing bold patterns include:
- Using a bold pattern as an accent wall or rug to add visual interest without dominating the space.
- Pairing bold patterns with solid colors or subtle textures to create a balanced look.
- Considering the 60-30-10 rule, where 60% of the room is a neutral color, 30% is a secondary color, and 10% is an accent color.
- Using lighting to highlight the bold pattern and create a sense of depth and visual interest in the space.
By following these tips, you can create a balanced and visually appealing space that showcases your bold patterned flooring.
