Wood
With the advent of the “great room” concept, that unites kitchen and family rooms into one expansive space, it’s become common to see hardwoods on kitchen floors. Many people now prefer to have wood flooring in their kitchens. With the great room plan, having consistent flooring is a big part of that picture, and important in having the space look even and open.
Today’s preferences and trends, in hardwoods are leaning toward darker stains, with a growing interest in gray tones, People’s thoughts are also trending toward larger planks or toward using multiple-sized planks and toward more exotic wood grain, such as hickory, cherry, and walnut.
Another trend is wood floors that have been hand-scraped and hand-textured, a lot of people are willing to pay the price for a new floor, but prefer the old rustic look.
There has also been a recent, growing interest in reclaimed woods, which have been salvaged from older residential flooring or even from old barns, some companies are taking this a step further, and making new wood look old.
