The warmth and unfinished texture of wood adds to the dynamism of your house. From the latest trends to maintenance tips from experts, read everything you need to know about wooden flooring
Endurance, design and appeal work simultaneously while deciding the flooring for your home. Yet, a number of questions bother you even after you have clinched and finalised on a specific type and finish. The presence of wood naturally brings in a sense of warmth and cosiness into the interiors of a house. Deciding on the right colour, texture and pattern of the wood is in fact a big decision. “Engineered wood is the most preferred option these days, as it is more versatile, resistant to temperature changes, deals with moisture a bit better, and also is super easy to install. The quality of wood should also be of top priority. Oak, maple, and walnut are known for their strength and durability,” suggests Akash Saini, Director, Notion Flooring.
