Making your house a home often requires plenty of interior design decisions to be made. One way to create rooms that are impeccably designed is by pairing your hardwood floors with your furniture. Not all furniture will go with all types of wood, so you must think carefully about complementary furniture.
Here are some interior design tips for complementary furniture and hardwood floors.
Most wood floors have a lovely undertone that can help you define a space. Use these tones to match your decor with your floor. For example, warm tones mix with warm-toned pieces and cool greys will go with grey furniture. But this can also go the other way. You can create unique rooms by contrasting a dark floor with lighter furniture items, or vice versa.
You should take careful consideration of the size and weight of the room. Beautiful wooden floors don’t want to be swallowed by furniture in small rooms, so you should consider smaller items in a small room while reserving large items for when you have a lot of space to work with.
Walnut is typically quite dark wood that is known for being durable and very classy, perfect for a kitchen or dining room. Furniture that goes well with walnut furniture should be quite dark and refined, with bold and rich colours that can help to create a classy room.
Beech is quite a versatile hardwood floor option, as you can get colours that are more light and creamy, to deeper tones of brown. Due to its light tones, it’s great in small rooms to help create the idea that there is more space. Going with this theme, you should pair it with furniture that is lighter in colour.
Ok is an extremely durable wood, available in a wide range of shades and finishes, so you can find a style that fits your room. You can make it fit seamlessly into your room, whether you’re looking for something modern or classic, light or dark.
