What type of floor would you suggest for this area?

last year

Hello all,

I can't seem to figure out what type of flooring would be best suited for this area. I am stuck between tile and wood. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated! The area in question here is the carpet.

So same as the rest and make sure you have a good mat outside the door for wet feet and a good large rug inside If tha wall of windows faces where it gets lots of sun add solaor shades to protect both the floors and any uphostery in the space the shades will keep the heat and UV rays out and allow you to keep the view,

A continuation of the wood into this area would look great!

I would consider tile since the room has an exterior door and especially if you have a pool or pets. Just to protect the flooring from traffic in/out of that door. Hope this helps!

Love this kitchen! How about these? https://www.houzz.com/discussions/what-kind-of-tile-flooring-is-this-tha-dsvw-vd~83683 I like the rectangle shape. This tile floor that has a slate look is also attrective: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/are-these-tile-floors-and-if-so-what-are-dsvw-vd~77150 I would like wood. How about oak floor stained to match the cabinets? Or a white wash stain?

Love the colour and style of cabinets. The worktops are beautiful. The flooring is a bit wishy washy and I would prefer a chimney hood style extractor fan - even though this one is the same colour as the kitchen, to me it sticks out like a sore thumb. Personally, I like the 'working triangle' to be at the centre of the kitchen and the fridge freezer looks like an after thought, stuck on at the end, in this design.

A few things I would change from experience...instead of a single and double door I would spend the extra money and put in a bifold corner section...would open up the space so much more. as for the kitchen...completely flip your design...put your breakfast bar closer to the window...make it large and multipurpose with the hob in it and then put your main band of cabinets either left, right or behind? We have recently restructured our existing cabinets to this layout and put in new countertops and it works far better than before!

What is this room going to be used for and what part of the country are you in? Tile floors are used more in the SE and SW parts of the country. In the north you would be more likely to find wood, although the previous poster's comment is a good point.

We agree with Patricia. Matching the wood floor that is already there would make the room feel bigger and more congruous. A doormat outside and a remove your shoes, please, Policy is always great with wood floors or any floors for that matter. Although not always possible. Lumber liquidators is a great place to go to for wood flooring of all kinds. As asked earlier; what is your plan for this room?

We were hoping it could be a lounge area/informal dining area. A couch, bar, it can be anything really. The fact that the sliding door goes out to the pool makes it nice to hang out in there.

As others have said, match to the current flooring. We had hardwood, with pool, kids dripping wet, dogs and cats. No issues, but we did have plenty of towels handy so puddles would not be left forever on the floor.
