Flooring is an essential aspect of any interior design project, and selecting the right flooring material can make a huge impact on the overall look and feel of a space, as we move further into 2024, it's clear that the trends in flooring materials are rapidly evolving.
When choosing a flooring material for your project, there are three primary criteria to consider: cost and installation, durability, and aesthetics.
These factors were all considered in our selection process for the top three trending flooring materials in 2024.
Whether you're renovating your home, building a new one, or looking to upgrade your commercial space, these flooring options are sure to give you the perfect blend of aesthetics, durability, and functionality.
Now come with us, let's explore the trends in flooring materials for 2024!
1. Hardwood Flooring
Hardwood is one of the most popular types of flooring. They can offer durability and a natural ambiance to your room.
But hardwood’s biggest con, alongside prices, is the mess you’ll have to make to swap your floor.
But if you want warm-feeling and long-lasting flooring, the vintage style of hardwood floors is the thing to look for.
Hardwood flooring is an all-time classic, and since so many other flooring types try to simulate it, having those on your radar is just part of the floor-buying experience.
You might even notice the surge in the popularity of vintage aesthetics for decoration. To get on this trend without letting go of eco-friendly flooring options, you can search for hardwood floors made with reclaimed wood.
“Reclaimed” stands for wood salvaged from old buildings or furniture.
Those floors aren’t just a less harmful option to our environment, they are also always one-of-a-kind, so you should keep an eye out for reclaimed hardwood flooring when researching.
2. Laminate Flooring
Laminate floorings are made up of strong paper-like material. Several layers of these materials are compressed together with fiberboard and similar stuff.
Some layers are designed to look like wood, and each one of them has a specific purpose to make your flooring last longer while looking nice.
The protective layers keep the material from warping over time and damage like moisture, cracks, and a whole other bunch of stuff. You can also apply a special wax to create an extra protective layer, ensuring your product won’t swell if it comes in contact with water.
This means that you can use damp cloths to clean your flooring’s surface without damaging it.
Laminate flooring has a gentle aesthetic, so its calming looks help to keep your room from being too visually overwhelming, while also having that energy only laminate flooring can bring.
It’s a great option if you want to create a “chilling out” ambiance.
3. SPC Flooring
Yep, we saved the best one for the ending! SPC (or Stone Plastic Composite) is the perfect material for making bold decisions when it comes to colors and styles that laminate, hardwood and other floor types just can't do.
It's made of strong vinyl planks with a rigid core made from limestone, PVC, and stabilizers. This core adds safety and stability to the planks, making them even more water-resistant than laminate floorings.
The stabilizers give SPC flooring amazing durability. Pet owners, for example, won't need to worry about scratches and other damage.
These days, homeowners are all about having cheerful, mood-lifting interiors, so they're drawn to the bright colors and energetic designs that SPC makes possible.
Don’t be scared to inject vibrant shades and some cool geometric shapes into your home decor!
A few strategically placed pattern pieces can instantly make a room feel more energizing.
Here at Kasabono, we specialize in SPC floorings for a couple of reasons:
