Adding Texture To Your
Floors Adds Texture To Room

Texture is key in flooring as well.
The Perspective 4 plank line of floors features bevelled edges along
both the width and the length of planks.
(NC)—Home owners today want their
interiors to be less complicated and easier to maintain — a style
that goes a long way to reducing the stress of daily living. Simple
is great, but it is hard to achieve! You don't want to follow this
style literally, or your decor will look skimpy, sparse and lacking
in character.
A way to avoid boring is through
the use of texture. Texture is one of the most important elements of
interior design, and can be applied to every dimension of the room.
In stucco, a simple beige wall goes from boring to interesting. A
sofa or chair upholstered in softly brushed chenille becomes a
personal haven.
Texture is key in flooring as well.
And some of the most interesting environments can be created with a
hard-surface floor.
Nothing warms a room more than a
rich, natural hardwood. Its grain works well with any interior
design, from traditional to modern. A natural surface like wood can
make a contemporary setting look more "homey," less commercial.
Laminates also add texture. This
hard-wearing, no-nonsense flooring is a great choice for an active
family. One of the newest members of the hard-surface family is
cork. Its richly ''burled'' grain adds wonderful character to any
room.
All of these choices come as
engineered prefinished planks and tiles that simply click together,
using a unique joint called Uniclic. One of the leading providers of
Uniclic flooring is TORLYS (www.torlys.com).
This method is fast, provides an ultra-tight fit, and — amazingly —
requires no special subfloor.
So if you are looking to simplify
your decor, yet enhance the room's personality, consider adding
texture to your floor and not just your fabric and wall surface.
