Three Grey Hardwood Floors for a Fall Refresh
Grey hardwood floors provide an endless array of opportunities when it comes to design. Depending on the species of wood, intensity of the stain and variation of the coloring, you can make them look rustic, traditional or modern. You can select from a broad spectrum of dark, charcoal shades to near-white with flecks of grey. You can also select weathered wood or a polished, finished wood in your desired grey to make the floor the focal point of the room or blend in with the overall design of the space. With such a vast variety of combination and flexibility, it’s easy to see why grey is the new go-to color for interior décor.
To achieve the desired effect, one has to select the right shade of grey. How do you know which shade will work best for your residential or commercial flooring project? In general, dark grey floors visually reduce the space while light grey and medium grey floors create the appearance of a more ample, airy room. Darker grey shades make the ideal backdrop for intense bold color accents, such as red. While lighter grey hues complement well with yellow, pinks and natural hues.
To provide you with some inspiration, here are three ways we’ve worked with designers to make grey hardwood floors work for any room, including kitchens, living rooms, family rooms and bedrooms.

New Flooring Trend Report highlight why customers choose hardwood flooring
New home builders, re-modelers and interior designers all understand the weight of importance of flooring decisions for homeowners. The latest reports by flooring experts and interior designers shine a light on customer needs and wants, and the lifestyle and design benefits of hardwood flooring.
What flooring experts are saying The National Wood Flooring Association latest Wood Floors Styles and Trends report provides valuable information homeowners may want to consider before making a flooring investment. For a client who may be eco-conscious and concerned with health, they may want to know that hardwood floors are easy to maintain and help improve indoor air quality. If lifestyle and longevity is top of mind, engineered wood flooring creates strength and stability that withholds fluctuations in temperature and can be used in rooms where other flooring may not, such as basements and kitchens.
What customers are saying In the 2016 Hardwood Flooring Customer Preference Survey, interior designers surveyed specify top flooring trends they see in customers highlight style, hardwoods or engineered, finishes, plank widths and where consumers find their inspiration. A few of the highlights from this survey have wide plank flooring coming out on top with over half choosing modern style flooring. Darker stains also had a strong showing as did engineered flooring.
