The choice of flooring can radically transform the appearance and perception of a home. If you have an open-plan home, combining different types of flooring is a foolproof option for zoning the space in an aesthetic and economical way. We explain all the tricks you need to know to achieve a smooth transition between different types of flooring and ensure the resistance, durability, and elegance of your home's floors.
The kitchen and dining area are two areas that are often the heart of any home. Therefore, it is crucial that the transition between these two spaces is harmonious, fluid, and elegant. If you have, for example, an open kitchen to the living room, combining floors is an effective resource for zoning and defining the space.
In any case, if you have decided to incorporate two types of flooring into your home, make sure that the materials they are made of are resistant and easy to maintain. Opt for microcement floors for interiors, or stone or porcelain tile flooring. And if you want to add extra warmth and comfort, natural wood parquet is a classic choice that never fails.
The bathroom is a space where moisture greatly influences its durability. Knowing this, we recommend installing a microcement floor, which is highly resistant to water and easy to maintain.
At the same time, to dress the floors of the bedrooms, you can play with textures and patterns, using rugs on parquet or laminate flooring. This combination will provide you with extra comfort when you wake up in the morning.
This versatile and creative technique consists of visually delimiting a specific area within a space. It is often applied to areas such as the living room or dining room, and is done by changing the flooring material.
To implement this effect, a different floor material is used around the perimeter of the designated area. For example, in a living room with a tiled floor, a wooden frame is placed around the main area and filled with a parquet floor, laminate or any other material that contrasts with the surrounding floor.
Decorating terraces and connecting the interior space with the exterior is quite a challenge. To ensure that the floor fluidly connects these two areas, use materials that adapt to both outdoor and indoor environments. Also make sure that the selected materials are resistant to outdoor conditions and easy to maintain, to ensure their durability over time.
The most resistant and easy-to-maintain floors, such as natural stone or wood, will be your great allies.
Combining two types of flooring in your home can be a challenge that you will successfully achieve with proper planning and guidance.
