If you’ve actually decided that a solid hard wood or engineered hardwood floor is the appropriate floor for your home décor project in 2016, then odds are you’ve already discovered that there exists an enormous range of hard wood to choose from – from domestic favorites such as oak or hickory to very popular exotic hardwoods such as tigerwood or acacia flooring. Picking out which kind of wood might take a good deal of analysis and that’s before you’ve even considered hard wood floor colors.
All all these different species of hardwood come in a huge range of color tones. For instance, one national hardwood specialist presently lists 360 different oak flooring surfaces options grouped into twelve distinct hardwood colors including whitewashed, neutrals, honey tones, reds, lots of different browns and even 2 very dark brown ( nearly black ) stained floors. And that’s only for oak!
So it might be a very daunting task if you’re starting from scratch to select just the right hardwood floor color for your house. But help is at hand ! The great news is that certain hardwood flooring colors appear to lend themselves naturally to particular design ideas. So a great way to go about choosing would be to think first of the overall appearance that you’re trying to achieve and then match the right wood to that look.
