Dark hardwood floors...what color furniture?
Comments (18)Well hope I'm not too late but....we installed Brazillian Walnut in our kitchen and dining room and we've been really happy with it. I don't have the problem of everything showing on this floor any more than on the oak we have in some other areas. The planks have some variation in color so maybe that's why. This is a very solid hard (like teak) wood. We got it at Lumber Liquidators (Bella wood) and installed it ourselves, but they have installers they can recommend too (if you don't have one already). The first is a more recent pic, the floor is 10 years old. One huge plus with this particular floor is that it is not stained, it's this color all the way through so it will always look like this. When the time comes all we have to do is lightly sand it and revarnish. No staining involved. Furniture wise, our house insn't real large, so we just have pieces we love, an old farm table I've refurbished and an old cabinet both painted white. I don't think a floor type necessarily limits you, especially if it's wood....See MoreCan a dark hardwood floor work with contemporary decor?
Comments (13)cruzmsl - I really like the dark and light tones together; I think the walls and the light trim will work well with the dark wood floors. The tile appears to have a little taupe/tan in it which provides some of the 'warmth' lolauren was talking about; I think the tile will be fine against the wood. I'm just wondering if your sofa and chair might "disappear" a little against the dark floor? Maybe adding in a lighter area rug that the sofa/chair contrasts with? The dog will also like the carpeted area - especially on his joints as he ages, and especially for large breeds. I'm also planning to rip out carpet in a couple of years to install wood floors - easier to clean up after the dog. Good luck! :-)...See MoreWhat color compliments a dark hardwood floor
Comments (9)Just get the new hardwood to match as close as possible since bedrooms can have different decor and flooring anyway. IMO bedroom wall color is chosen to work with the bedding and I love pale blue bedrooms but I would need to see the space , the floor and the bedding . Wall color is not the driver for flooring color so do not be locked into the gray walls to make this decision. As for what color for the floors I need to see what you have , you do realize you xould match the new ones if they were finished on site which IMO would be the perfect answer....See MoreFlooring to complement dark hardwood floor
