1.) Solid Wood

A classic choice, the wood is durable and practical, but feels too upscale. One of the best things about wood is that it can stand up to children and pets, and should be repaired only a few years. Although more expensive to install than carpet, the value is much higher because it never needs to be replaced. If you want a room close to appear wider, choose narrow planks. In a large room, wide boards to help balance. Choose wood with knots and color variations for a rustic charm.
Trend Tip: The hottest look has moved away from the dark woods and finishes in recent years back to blond wood.
2.) Carpet.
Hand Made Carpet
Because carpet is often the best choices in flooring, many people turn on her. However, the carpet may be appropriate in many contexts, especially in low traffic areas like bedrooms. The big advantage: carpet provides sound insulation, helps conserve energy and it does not necessarily require a flat surface for installation. And although there is a certain “ick” factor of carpets that are rarely cleaned, carpets can trap allergens and dust that can be vacuumed regularly. When choosing carpet, look for a loop or twist pile 80 percent mixture wool/20 percent nylon for best appearance and durability.
Trend Tip: Increasing the use of carpet in stairways and halls are underway to scratches.
3.) Cast in resin.

Trend Tip: Although white is always fashionable, warm air is poured into the resin brightly colored lacquers.
4). Porcelain tiles.

Harder wearing than ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles are virtually maintenance free. They are more expensive than ceramic tiles and usually need to be installed by a professional because they need to be properly run and spaced because they can expand and contract.
Trend Tip: Latest looks come in metallic finishes, modern weaving and wood effects.
5.) Bamboo.

If you are looking for an eco-friendly choice for flooring, bamboo is the way forward because it can be harvested every 3 to 5 years, unlike the 15 to 25 years for most wood. It is well and comes in a choice of many colors.
Trend Tip: Brilliant, almost black bamboo is hot, especially in rooms with a feeling of East Asia.
6.) Concrete.

The big advantage of concrete is its durability and the elegance factor. It may also be paid on an existing floor without the need for upgrading and needs resealing only every seven years. The disadvantage is that the concrete is cold and can feel a little too strong in cold climates. Concrete can look especially good for indoor / outdoor settings where a patio is adjacent to a living space inside.
Trend Tip: concrete floors wax for a glossy finish. The color choices are also well beyond just the standard gray.
7.) Cork.

If you are looking for an anti-slip floor, you can not do better than cork, which can help prevent falls and is a natural fire retardant. It is also an excellent choice for those looking for sound insulation and energy but do not want to follow the path of carpet.
Trend Tip: pale shades, gray, brown and dark metallics are more favorable to the traditional brown.
8.) Laminate.

Laminate floors were connected a few years ago than they are now. Maybe it’s because too many people bought cheap laminate flooring that bubbled and buckled. Today, laminates are high quality standard and are perfect for high traffic areas. They should not be used in areas such as bathrooms or kitchens where water will encourage the laminates to deform.
Trend Tip: Look for laminates with a textured surface for a more realistic finish.
9) Natural floor coverings. If you are looking for something softer than stone or wood, but you’re not ready for carpets, floors made of natural fibers may be your best choice. Floors of jute, seagrass, coir and sisal may be resistant to wear in high traffic areas and more class than the future of carpet. The disadvantage of natural flooring: it can be slippery and scratchy on bare feet.
Trend Tip: As with most other options flooring, the color ranges are much wider than before. Coco, for example, are at the back, gray, chocolate and a mix tape.
