Introduction to Living Room Floors

On Flooring Hut’s shiny new website, we have an inspiration page. Let’s look at some living room inspiration today.

Carpets

Carpeting your living room will help create a warm, cosy, and comfortable space. The colours we love at the moment are all natural and neutral. For example, pastel browns, blues, and greens.

Carpet ranges that we recommend for living rooms, include the Olympus range by Abingdon Stainfree, Deep Feelings by Abingdon Love Story, Malabar Two-Fold by Cormar Wool Loop, and Natural Berber Twist Deluxe by Cormar Wool Twist. If you combine these colour recommendations with these manufacturer recommendations, then you are well on your way to choosing your perfect carpet!

Luxury Vinyl Tiles

Installing vinyl LVT Flooring in your living room is a great choice! It offers all the beauty and charm of real wood flooring, but all the durability and practicality of synthetic flooring! As far as recommended colours go, you have a wide range to choose from.

Greys are in demand at the moment, but so are rich, brown, oak effect tiles. Luxury vinyl tile brands we recommend include, Allura Click Pro by Forbo. If you have children or pets in your home, then luxury vinyl tiles will make a good, resistant flooring choice!

Wooden Flooring

So you’ve got a bit of cash to splash and you want authentic real wood flooring in your living room – a great choice! Installing real wood flooring can even raise the value of your home! Colours we love include light coloured wood with heavy contrasting grains to create intrigue and rich dark coloured woods to create a welcoming atmosphere.

Recommended brands and ranges include Kährs Wood Flooring by Kährs, Next Step by Furlong Natural Solutions, Majestic by Furlong Natural Solutions, and Mont Blanc by Furlong Natural Solutions. Remember you an also re-sand and re-seal real wood flooring, so despite the high initial investment, you can rest assured that your wooden floors are there for the long haul!

Sheet Vinyl

Sheet vinyl comes in sheets that need to be glued down. This floorcovering is very durable, easy to maintain, and safe (good grip and soft). Patterns that are currently popular include wood effect vinyl.

Recommended manufacturers include the Grey-Tex range by Abingdon, the Cuba range also by Abingdon, the Designatex range by Polyflor, and the Secura range also by Polyflor. Vinyl is a great floorcovering for kitchens and bathrooms, but can also work well in a living room.
