Design Ideas for Flooring is the ultimate guide to the latest materials, products, and styles in flooring. With 450 color photographs, Design Ideas for Flooring amply illustrates every choice in flooring--wood, stone, ceramic tile, decorative concrete, carpeting and rugs, laminate, and resilient vinyl in sheet and tile versions. The book is also loaded with special tips and advice for the kind of floor, from both a design and a durability perspective, to use in various areas around the home--high-traffic areas, kitchens & baths, comfortable living & sleeping areas, utility areas, and more. It also covers special effects in floors, such as mosaic treatments, inlays, painted designs, and more.
There are so many options for flooring on the market today. Do I choose travertine, linoleum (looks great now), carpet, wood? This book helps you answer those questions. It focuses on discussing various floor options, the pros and cons and where the flooring would best be used. What's so great about it is the photographs are clear and showcase the floors. You do get some furnishings in many of the photos, but without a doubt, the floor is the star. Not only does the book show options like ceramic and porcelain tile, it shows floors with various patterns and layouts of each material. The book not only talks about vinyl flooring, but it talks about various types of sheet vinyl flooring, how it's made and what to look for when buying. There is even a section on flooring in garage and basements and include ways to vent moisture away. I highly recommend this book and bought two, one for myself and one for my mother.
