There is perhaps no place in your home that
is so much in contact with your body as the floors. The floor not only gives you a
sense of touching the strong foundation of your home, but also cools you down with the transmission of cool waves from your feet to the entire
body. Visitors to your home may like the idea of superbly coloured walls but may
be put off if the floors are not well created. Hence, it is of utmost
importance to have floors at your home which add dignity and elegance to your
residence.
Let us go on a stroll through a neighbourhood
and knock on the doors of a few homes to see what kind of flooring they have
used for their homes. Who knows, we may get a clue or two about what will suit
your home too. So, are you ready to be amazed by the floors that we are going to show you?

Log end floors
Why is it that every time we start with any
design, we come across wood? Perhaps, it is because there is nothing that
catches the eye of a design enthusiast as wood. Gone are the days when tiles
and marbles used to adorn the floors of our homes. These days, people are
coming up with amazing concepts for their homes. Having a floor with logs ends
is no less a crazy idea. And these are ends of actual wooden logs. This floor
design is the winner of the
Northwest Forestry Association’s Environmental Craftsmanship Award. Moreover, the
floor meets LEED criteria (Leaderships in Energy and Environmental Design) too.
So, if you want to add a natural tinge to your floor, now you know what you
have to opt for.

Colourful and cheerful
Floor can be as colourful as your life. Don’t get us
wrong, but colourful floors are the new fashion statement these days. From homes, to offices to
even restaurants are coming up with floor designs that incorporate a lot of
colour in them. The colours are well chosen. Moreover, the colour combination is so chosen that it has a positive psychological effect on the visitors or the dwellers. The colour
combination must be such that the floor appears welcoming and not repelling.
Having a floor with tiles of multiple colours and varied sizes arranged in a
particular fashion will certainly make your home look chic and jazzy at the
same time.
8.
Wine box floor
Do you love drinking wine? Do you consider yourself to
be a wine connoisseur? If yes, or even if no, you can go for having a floor
made of wine boxes. This can prove to be an amazing DIY project for your kids
and family and will add a mystical touch to your floor in the home. Collect the
wine crates or boxes and then arrange them on the floor. This will not only
elevate the floor a bit as compared to other rooms but will also look amazing
and will take you straight to Scotland every day and every night. This floor
design can prove to be a superb idea for your library, wine cellar or game
room. Bring home this whimsical and magical floor and see what your guests say!
7. Marbelous
wooden floor
What if you could bring home wood for your floor along
with additional advantages? Marbelous Wood Floor, designed by Pernille Snedker
Hansen of Snedker Studio is as stunning as complex it is. The artistic floor is
created by first floating a water-repellent paint in water. Laying the paper
with utmost caution follows this. Then the wooden blocks are placed on the
paint, allowing the paint to transform the wood. This floor has a minimalist design and is a perfect fit for homes that have serene interior design. If you
love to keep interior decor minimalist, then this floor is a perfect match
for your home.
6.
Crocodile skin floor
Yes, you read it correct. We are talking of crocodile
skins here. Why does the floor always need to have wood or marble or tiles? Why
can’t we design it like the skin of an animal? Bring home this floor design
that will give you goose bumps at first, but then will make you feel like
riding a crocodile’s back. The pitch black coloured floor is composed of
circular features of varied sizes that give it an appearance of crocodile’s
skin. The floor is actually made of wood and with smooth finish; the floor does
not seem to have wood at all. You can also display a banner at your home,
saying, “No crocodiles were harmed for my home”. Who knows, you may end up
inspiring crocodile hunters to adopt peaceful ways of being close to
crocodiles?
5. Etched
flooring
This one is certainly going to be a favourite with
your kids. The floor is made of wood and is carved with caricatures. The floor
is then oiled in motifs to give it a stunning look. It is one of the
concepts of floor design that have not yet been explored much in the world. If you
believe yourself to be the pioneer of amazing and modern design in your
society, and want to bring forward a new floor concept, then go ahead and champion
the etched floor concept. Be a super daddy or super mommy and bring the etched
floors to your home and cheer up your kids.
4.
Jigsaw floor
When we are talking about kids, why not please them
with another game that they love playing? Yes, we are talking real puzzles! Floors can be given the appearance of
jigsaw puzzles. The floor shown in the picture consists of interlocking wooden features that are
identical in shape and size and lock with each other to give the floor an
appearance of a game that the entire family has played together in the past. This will also
give the feeling that your floor is much more secured and sturdy as the
different individual parts of the floor are holding to each other firmly. Add a
whimsical touch to your home by making a jigsaw out of your floor. Your family
is going to love this minimalist yet neat design.
3.
Water, water everywhere
This is again a concept that has not spread far and
wide yet. Interior designers love these floor concepts, which give an
appearance of your room submerged in water. It is for sure that when guests
arrive at your home, they will think not only twice but perhaps 10 times before
stepping in.
2.
Bricks
Yes, bricks are meant for the wall and not for the
floor, traditionally. But imagine giving a rustic appearance to your floor by
designing it like an unfinished business of masonry. You can be assured of receiving stares
from your guests. Be prepared to answer them if they ask you how you
created this.
1. The
abyss
3D floor designs are catching up like a
forest fire these days. The floors are painted in such a way that from an angle
they look like real-world valleys. The 3D designs will terrify you every time
you step on them. This is a perfect fit for your game room or even your living
room, where you want to give your guests a mystical and terrific feeling.
Get ahead of the crowd and bring home some
new ideas of floors. You may turn out to be the first one to champion the new
and modern designs.
