Need help deciding on flooring

9 years ago

I have decided on the granite and cabinet style and color for my basement kitchenette. I' m trying to decide on flooring. The flooring in kitchenette will be used as the flooring for the entire basement.. Here are pictures of 3 floor samples, cabinet door, and granite. I need help deciding which floor looks the best with cabinet & granite.

Most probably the 3rd! The flooring complements the granite and cabinets which will help make ur kitchen flow ;) !!

Love #3 the darkest of the choices. Infinite possibilities for decorating, rich tone and depth, classic feel that will never go out of style!

While planning for bedroom flooring, it is necessary to consider the location & climate. The flooring should be soothing, refreshing, nice looking, comfortable, easy to clean, anti-slippery and give classy look to the room. Types of bedroom flooring are: •Marble Flooring •Wooden Flooring •Bamboo Flooring •Cork Flooring •Carpet & Rugs It is possible to have the floor with carpet excluding the bed. Carpets floors look pretty in bedroom and room look beautiful, stunning and add charm to the room.

to add what Norm says above....not to mention that you'd be changing the look/feel of the outside of the building if you were even allowed to do that. Just curious -- why do you want to close it up? That seems to take away from it.

Hi 4evazx, I believe that you had given your designer a good and clear brief of your wants and needs and discussed all details with your designer. Your designer has done a great job as i can see from the floor plan and lighting layout. Trust your instinct and have faith in your designer. The only thing i would recommend is that you get your 12w downlight at 4000k. This is a natural daylight glow and is great in apartments. Do post pictures of your apartment when its done. Enjoy the process.

Your kitchen may be very dark if you choose both dark cabinets and dark floor. That being said, I also like option 3

There are 2 kitchen photos on Houzz that have the grey stained cabinets very similar to what I'm using. The photo that has the light flooring which is the exact sample that I have can be found in Houzz photos listed as mirage maple greystone #1 photo (hardwood flooring). The second photo with the floor color similar to the dark floor sample ( not the same sample that I have) can be found in Houzz photos listed as Altadore II the #2 photo ( Sagebrook Developments). After looking at these 2 photos, do you still like the darker flooring best? This flooring will be in a kitchen as well as the entire basement. I don't want the basement to be too dark.

I would have to say the 4th. I think number three would make the kitchen a bit dark. The fourth I think would bring out the color of the cabinets while also making the room look lighter.

What kind of flooring is that 3rd flooring. The grayish brown one? Looking at flooring and I love that color

The third sample looks like it gives you the most contrast and has the most personality. Definitely paint the walls a light color and have fantastic lighting in your kitchen. Can't wait to see the final results! Good Luck!

Always has to be a that one person that's different, (sorry about this) but I like the color of the lighter flooring in the first picture. It's soft, warm and still brings contrast against the cabinet door and granite. The darker floor (pic #3) is certainly a viable option and provides even more contrast to the cabinet door and to the granite, but there's something more soothing about the color-play when the lighter colored floor is pictured........

The grayish brown flooring is made by Mirage and it is Greystone Maple. It comes in solid and engineered.

The first image is the best for aesthetics... at least from the photo and lighting.

tacomd, what did you finally go with? I have a similar cabinet color with Caesarstone london grey countertop and am trying to decide on floors. I have Somerset mist and Mirage Greystone top on my list as of now for flooring, but worried if its too dark for my bottom/island cabinets (Omega smokey hills). I have white cabinets on top. the floor with be throughout the house (open floor plan).
