Lamination is one of the most useful techniques in the world. You can use it to protect materials and goods, including anything vulnerable to environmental conditions. Simultaneously, you can choose laminate to enhance aesthetics, picking from a massive selection of colours, finishes, patterns, and effects. It’s especially good for different types of flooring. We want to have a closer look at that here, exploring a couple of the big trends at the moment. Then, if you need laminating services for projects, you can discuss it with us.
Trends
One of the best things about flooring is there are so many options. This includes carpet, vinyl rolls, hardwood, laminate, tiles, and more. So, you can choose the best option to achieve the look you want in any kind of space.
Considering current trends, there are a few that stand out. Firstly, pattern flooring is really popular now. More and more people are choosing herringbone, parquet, or chevron. The floors look fantastic, providing a sense of movement and creating depth. A key thing to keep in mind is you can achieve these looks with various materials, including laminate, solid wood, and tiles. Therefore, you have plenty of options.
Another massive trend is the popularity of the luxe boutique hotel aesthetic. In fact, it’s growing faster than all the other trends. Traditionally, the flooring was almost exclusively for high end luxury hotels. However, it is more affordable and accessible today. Laminating services have helped ensure this by allowing the development of higher quality laminates and LTP (luxury vinyl plank) flooring. They look amazing, very difficult to distinguish from solid wood and stone.
Colours
The thing people love the most about flooring is there is an endless choice of colours. This includes natural tones, bright shades, and all kinds of patterns. Not surprisingly, it means a number of different things are trendy.
In the last decade, grey has been the most popular colour for flooring. You’ll see it in homes all across the UK now. While it is still trending, oak has become a strong competitor. People love the options here, including warm, natural, and light tones. Beige, sand, and cream are growing in popularity too as people favour warmer shades. Darker woods, such as walnut and dark oak, also have fans.
One to avoid
Interestingly, only one type of flooring has fallen out of fashion. Glossy finishes are definitely out. People now favour a softer finish, including matte and brushed. They create a more comfortable environment.
