Contemporary Floor Designs You’ll Love

Each element found on your home reflects your personality – from the walls to the furnitures used and even down to the floor. Yes, the floor may be the least thought of home décor, but floor styles could totally overrule out an entire space. We may just step on it, but it elevates the theme that you’re trying to pull off.

Here are some contemporary floor designs which could give you a head start on your floor renovation project.

Glass Floor

Have a vacation home near the shore? Why don’t you try having a glass floor on one of your living rooms? You can easily see the sand beneath on low tides and the fishes swimming amongst the corals when the tides get high.

Taped Floor

A glance on this floor would tell you that it is a sophisticated piece of art. What you might fail to notice is that this art isn’t actually made of customized tiles – it’s actually made from Vinyl tapes. This outlandish take on floors reminds us that a trendy look doesn’t always involve mean hefty-priced materials.

Reptile Puzzle Floor

For reptile enthusiasts, this flooring is a must-have. Arbore, a Spanish flooring contractor created these cool interlocking hardwood pieces which are in the form of M.C. Escher’s geometric reptiles.

Belted Floor

The impression derived from this tiled floor can be twisted into Game of Thrones, vintage feel or into the contemporary bachelor pad type. Who would have thought that this flooring was made from belts? Yes, belts that you no longer want to wear can be turned into a lavish-looking floor. The leather belt flooring is a style developed by TING.

Mosaic Floor

Do you always notice the exquisite rugs lying on the floor on the luxury houses on movies? Well, you can imitate that rug-on-the-floor look with a faux rug tiled floor. Take for example this faux zebra skin rung mosaic made from crushed black and white tiles by Hawley McLean Haleblian.

Ombre Floor

You can break the monotony of a contemporary unicolor space by playing with the tile hues. This pretty ensemble of blue, white and neutral tiles had placed the oomph in this white-walled bath. Design credit goes to DAPstockholm.

Penny Floor

Another way to add a unique touch to your boring bathroom is by having a floor full of coins. Go break your piggies and place the coins on your bathroom instead of spending more money on buying the tiles. You can arrange a pattern on the center as a design.

Textured Floor

If you can pull it off, try merging two completely different floor designs into one. This could be the solution if you’re torn between two themes. The combination of wooden and hex tiles gives out refreshing contemporary feel. Make sure you know how to tone down the infusion of the elements to end up with an elegant finish.

Intricately Painted Floor

This is an intricately painted floor. Lovely, isn’t it? It’s is an example of a cement screed floor. Aside from being affordable, this new floor style is eco-friendly. And, you can even make it yourself. All you need is a self-leveling compound, a bonding agent, steel brush and a mixing tool.
