Say Goodbye to Gray-Toned vinyl Flooring:Alternatives for a Warm and Welcoming Home

When constructing homes, builders prioritize the durability and cost-effectiveness of their materials, particularly regarding flooring. However, there is one trend that needs to stop: the use of a particular tone of hardwood floors. Personally, I detest this trend as it looks cheap and manufactured.

While I understand the appeal of using vinyl products due to their longevity and toughness, the tone of the flooring makes it look unnatural and uninviting. Instead, using wood with a natural pattern or a design that looks like authentic wood would be more pleasing to the eye.

natural wood or wood-like designs

would be more visually appealing, warm, and welcoming.

Moreover, the white walls that builders often use to give the impression of a clean and modern space do not complement the flooring. Instead, it creates a cold and unwelcoming atmosphere. When staging furniture is not used correctly, it only exacerbates the sterile and uncomfortable feeling of the room.

To make matters worse, the use of fluorescent lighting further reinforces the impression of being in a confined space. This combination of the flooring tone, white walls, and fluorescent lighting creates an atmosphere that is unwelcoming and uninviting, which is not desirable for a home.

In conclusion, it is time for builders to move away from using the tone of flooring mentioned above. While it may be cost-effective and durable, the overall aesthetic does not justify its use. Instead, using natural wood or wood-like designs would be more visually appealing, warm, and welcoming.
