FLOORING TREND #1: BLACK IS BACK

For the last few years, grey has been a popular colour for use on the bathroom floor. However, in 2019, it seems black is back – and it’s here to stay.

Create a sleek and stylish bathroom with black flooring.

Once upon a time, black was seen as a big ‘no-no’ when decorating, over fears such a dark colour would overpower living spaces. Thankfully, homeowners have come around to the idea after learning that incorporating black shades can help create more intimate and stylish spaces, as showcased in the above image.

When paired with polished white fixtures in a minimalist setting, the contrast of black creates a sleek aesthetic, making the room feel clean and crisp.

FLOORING TREND #2: RUSTIC FLOORING REIGNS SUPREME

As real timber flooring is prone to damage from moisture, it’s not the preferred choice for using in a bathroom. Thankfully, vinyl flooring lets you replicate the look of timber for less, and it’s an ideal option for moisture prone areas.

Enjoy the look of real timber flooring for less with vinyl.

Better yet, in 2019, rustic replicas of timber floorboards are all the rage, as seen above. When paired with vintage decor pieces and soft pastels, you too can create your own rustic retreat!

FLOORING TREND #3: MATTE OVER GLOSSY

 The popularity of matte flooring in bathrooms remains high in 2019 – much to the delight of homeowners. Matte flooring options require less maintenance than their glossy counterparts as smudges and spills don’t show as easily. This is perfect for moisture-prone bathrooms!

Matte flooring in the bathroom reduces the appearance of smudges.

As the above image depicts, matte flooring also possesses a soft finish that adds to the room’s overall ‘cosy’ aesthetic. Paired with neutral and natural decor features, a lighter matte vinyl plank can accentuate light and open up your space.

A neutral floor is the perfect canvas for fun accessories.

FLOORING TREND #4: FUNCTIONAL FLOOR, FUN WALLS

 Are you ready to have fun with colour? In 2019, bold shades and fun prints are in – especially in the bathroom. However, we appreciate that opting for a vibrant motif on the floor isn’t the most timeless,

Instead, sticking to a neutral and classic flooring choice means you can play around with colour and print elsewhere in the room without having to replace your flooring surface every time a new trend rolls around. A soft, oak-inspired vinyl plank is the perfect choice for this purpose as it works extremely well with a plethora of brighter and bolder shades.
