Popular Hardwood Colors

While dark hardwood flooring is a timeless option that will never fall out of style, grey-toned hardwood continues to trend in 2018. This is a modern look that has been popular for the past few years, and in recent months the term “greige” has come into vogue. This refers to brown or beige toned hardwoods with a touch of grey, and you will see hardwood flooring moving in this direction in the coming year.

Wide Plank and Mixed Width Flooring

Wide plank flooring has been synonymous with a rustic look, and that will continue to be a popular trend in 2018. To really bring some country style home, pair wide plank flooring with a distressed or wire brushed finish.

Mixed width flooring has also become a popular way to add a little wow factor to your classic hardwoods. While currently popular, it is a bit trendier than standard or wide plank flooring and should be considered with caution if you are going to sell your home in the near future.

Environmentally-Friendly Hardwoods

Environmental concerns are top of mind for many Plano homeowners these days, and eco-friendly flooring options have surged in popularity. Hardwood flooring that has been sustainably grown and harvested is always a good option. Look for products certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. Bamboo and cork flooring are also great sustainable alternatives to solid hardwood.

Parquet Flooring

Believe it or not, that classic parquet flooring that was so outdated at one point is coming back into style, and you are sure to see this more often in 2018. Consider the traditional basket parquet pattern, or opt for something a little more sophisticated, such as a herringbone pattern.

Wood-Look Trends

Looking for a hardwood trend without the hardwood price tag? Many of these trends can be replicated with a popular wood-look alternative material. Consider wood-look tile, luxury vinyl plank flooring or laminate floors to get the look you want.
