In the process of choosing new wooden flooring for long sitting room/ diner
to replace inherited laminate.
I would like solid wood, and have been looking at light oiled oak. After weeks of pondering, the samples I sent for are starting to look a little too much like the floor it is going to replace, and I'm wondering if I should be more bold.
Also I have several pieces of vintage Ercol furniture (sideboards, plank dining table and Quaker chairs) in light wood, and can't decide if I should try to match them with the flooring, or whether it would be better to contrast. My style is mid Century modern. Ideal would be sanded floorboards, but the originals are in bad shape and I would have probs with insulation.
Have also been looking at bamboo, but have read mixed reviews about its durability.
Has anyone got any tips, ideas or experiences to share?
