There are many hardwood flooring options available, most of which, when done right, can help transform any modern living room into a favorite hangout spot for family and friends. Wildly popular in the 60s and 70s, tiny wood planks laid in a herringbone pattern have now largely been replaced by longer, wider boards. But over the past few years, parquet has caught up with the times, and there are now beautiful modern options that evolved to accommodate the new trends. Highly textured oak and ash, wirebrushed to further emphasize the grain, look stunningly unique, and add an entirely new dimension to a living room floor.
Creatively contrasting colors, textures and styles can go a long way in designing a chic, unique and memorable living room, where all elements of décor play off each other. Color variation on straight and open grain creates truly stunning and unique looking floors, and add an entirely new level of depth and elegance to any interior.
