How to Choose Flooring for Interior Designs?

With its durability, long lifespan, hygienic qualities, limitless surface options, and timeless appearance that suits any style, Laminate flooring is one of the most popular types of flooring in living spaces. Laminate flooring can be defined as a flat, solid panel made of natural solid wood or laminate material. Compared to solid hardwood flooring, laminate flooring is a more resistant, durable, and easy-to-clean option. It consists of layers of panels or boards made from wood derivatives and bonded with highly resistant resins. Laminate flooring, manufactured to high international standards, offers a variety of designs, patterns, and textures, making it one of the main elements that complete the decor of a space, beyond product quality features like durability and scratch resistance.

Its surfaces are resistant to scratches, moisture, water, and impacts, making laminate flooring a popular choice in homes, offices, shops, and hotels. Moreover, it provides a highly durable flooring solution against the effects caused by humidity. Therefore, water-resistant laminate flooring is also perfectly suitable for use in kitchens.

Where to Start When Choosing Flooring?

The first step in selecting the right flooring model is to assess the condition of the space. Factors such as natural light, ceiling height, room dimensions, wall color, or any architectural constraints are important when choosing laminate flooring. If the space is small and doesn’t receive direct sunlight, light-colored flooring will make the space look more spacious and bright. In contrast, darker flooring can be preferred in larger spaces with plenty of sunlight. The key is to create the atmosphere you desire. Light-colored flooring reflects natural light and creates a sense of openness, while dark-colored flooring absorbs light and creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. With VarioClic laminate flooring models, you can choose the option that best suits your interior design, enhancing your quality of life.

How to Achieve Style Cohesion with the Right Flooring?

Creating style cohesion in classic, country-style, or modern living spaces through flooring depends on making the right decisions regarding technical features, material, color, and texture palette. For classic spaces filled with family heirlooms and antique furniture, laminate flooring in dark wood tones with rich grain patterns will blend perfectly. In country-style spaces, which highlight natural textures like wicker, bamboo, and wood,laminate flooring with knotty patterns and strong grain appearances provide a warm look. Oak laminate flooring is especially ideal for country-style spaces. In restoration projects, worn, nostalgic-looking, vintage-style laminate flooring models offer a more fitting choice.

In city apartments, lofts, and industrial or modern-style spaces, wood-looking laminate flooring in various shades of grey that highlight steel, raw concrete, and other materials complement the overall style. In Scandinavian or Japandi-inspired spaces, minimalist designs are complemented with light-colored flooring. However, it's important to remember that stains will be more visible on lighter floors compared to dark ones. Light-colored flooring will also highlight colorful decorative accessories, furniture, or kitchen cabinets.

When selecting the color of the laminate flooring, it is important to consider the other elements in the space, such as the furniture, walls, and the dominant tones in textiles or doors. The laminate flooring should visually connect with the other elements in the space and complement the architecture. It’s possible to create different effects through light-dark contrasts or tone-on-tone applications.

Timeless Aesthetic

For a bold, elegant, and luxurious look in a space, black laminate flooring is one of the best options. Dark-colored laminate floorings enhance the character of the room, and the deep tones of black laminate flooring create a captivating ambiance, bringing timeless aesthetics to the space.

If the goal is to emphasize a luxurious feel, high-gloss laminate flooring that reflect natural light with all their elegance are more suitable. The reflections created by glossy surfaces and the interactions between different colors add dynamism to the space. Neutral colors like beige and grey are also versatile and easily complement various decor styles and color palettes.

Innovative Patterned Laminate Flooring Add Dynamism

Laminate flooring models, which are becoming increasingly popular, offer bold and vibrant choices that turn the floor into a focal point, adding personality and dynamism to the space. The VarioClic and Terraclick special patterned laminate flooring models from Yıldız Entegre offer design diversity for unique applications and creative solutions. The installation techniques of thelaminate flooring, such as herringbone or other specific laying styles, are also important for achieving the right style and cohesion. Herringbone flooring technique adds a new texture and dimension, while a straight-lay technique offers a smoother, more fluid surface that is easier to clean.

How Does the Right Flooring Choice Contribute to Sustainability?

Sustainability is a determining factor in many decisions, from the design process to production, and includes budget-friendly solutions and the selection of long-lasting materials. In well-being-focused living spaces, health and fitness areas should feature laminate flooring that are sourced sustainably and promote a "feel-good" experience.
