POLL: Dark vs light furniture?
Comments (98)Our home is a comfort driven election of many types of timber and styles having been donated bits from great grandparents, grandparents, parents and even a friend's old pine kitchen table that had been chewed by her dog! We may be awarded any trophies for our home but it is full of memories of our 50 years of marriage. The only bit of furniture I really do not like and regret buying is a tipple galas shelved TV unit. It is almost impossible to keep clean. Gilly...See MoreLight and Dark combination wood flooring
Comments (2)If you are looking for a click system, I would opt for a dark wood effect by Amtico or Moduleo. Otherwise Karndean is very popular. Any of these three luxury vinyls would be ideal for those rooms. You need to consider how dark you want to go - from experience a very dark floor does show up every little crumb. This is American Black Walnut by Amtico which is really popular....See MoreBright or dark wood flooring for a kitchen/ living room?
Comments (3)Hi Emily. In terms of the floor it depends on a couple of things. Dark floors are hard to keep looking clean so would consider upkeep. If the room isn't large a dark floor may also make it look smaller if you have light walls/skirting boards (the less contrast there is the bigger the room will feel). If the room doesn't get much light then a dark floor could make it feel dark although if it has a glossy/shiny finish it will bounce the light. For the kitchen units try and work with the light. What way does the room face and how much light does it get? Light worktops are much more on trend. Again if the room is dark I'd avoid a dark Matt finish worktop although something glossy will reflect the light. Depending on the room you could find lighter units may make it feel more spacious. I'm not sure if that helps but more details are probably needed!...See MoreDark flooring in light grey kitchen with dark blue island??
Comments (15)I have karndean flooring in my bathroom as well as the rest of the house. I have tiled my kitchen floor and glad I did. We have hard water and when droplets dry on the karndean in the bathroom they show up. They are easily washed away but I wouldn't like to be forever moping it. As for the floor colouring I have the pale grey wood and can promise it never looks dirty....See Morekikiamack
