2018 Flooring Trends

• By MAC Flooring Services

2
Eco-Friendly Marmoleum Cork

• In flooring this will translate into a resurgence
  of eco-friendly, organic materials such as
  marmoleum, linoleum and cork.
• Often considered as more of a commercial flooring
  material, marmoleum and linoleum have seen a
  resurgence in the residential market as
  manufacturers exploit the desire for clean,
  minimalist decor with new patterns and styles
  that dont immediately remind you of a hospital
  or school corridor!
• Cork flooring is eco-friendly, springy, and
  offers an interesting, pulp-like wood pattern.
• It's also quite affordable, making it an
  increasingly common choice floor trend for
  homeowners.

Smart Stylish Terrazzo

• Terrazzo is an interesting mix of stone chips
  (traditionally marble) either embedded in
  concrete or encased in resin.
• It's a unique type of flooring that can be used
  as an upgrade from linoleum or vinyl.
• Terrazzo tile is also starting to see renewed
  interest as it offers a clever mix of natural and
  contemporary materials.
• It is having a moment in stylish interiors
  everywhere with the development of epoxy terrazzo
  which allows it to be produced in a large
  selection of colors and make it less prone to
  cracking.

4
Hardwood Flooring

• Trends in hardwood flooring remain fairly
  constant, and for a long time know have seen a
  general move towards using wide planks that are
  reminiscent of reclaimed, antique hardwood
  planks.
• In 2018 this trend for wider planks will
  continue, as we look towards creating spaces that
  blend rustic and contemporary elements, a logical
  expression of mixing the organic with the
  technological.

5
Ebony Wood Flooring

• Ebony floors are extra-dark hardwoods (often
  achieved through ebony stain) that provide a
  rich, solid appearance.
• This floor trend pairs well with lighter walls,
  colorful rugs, and plenty of windows.

6
Carpet Rugs

• Carpets and rugs are already seeing a resurgence
  in popularity, and for 2018 this will become even
  more the case as they offer homemakers the chance
  to really showcase strong design statements
  especially in vibrant colors or bold patterns.
• Color trends for 2018 are bright yellow, lime
  green, cherry tomato red, sky blue, bright purple
  and fuchsia.
• Choosing rugs with added texture inherent in its
  structure will also be popular especially in
  simple, unfussy, modern interiors.
• Carpets from Econyl are made from stain-resistant
  nylon that's eco-friendly and can be woven in
  many different pile designs from thick living
  room carpet to more utilitarian versions
