Oak hardwood flooring has been a favourite for a number of years for people wanting to create a traditional style, but there really is more to Oak Flooring when used in a contemporary home.  If you want to create a chic, modern feel there are a couple of design features regarding your oak floor that work well with modern décor.

  • Oak floor can be oiled to enhance the grain.  Oiling will not result in a sheen forming of the boards –an amazing look that compliments modern furniture lines.
  • To create a great spatial effect do not fit skirts, this creates fantastic clean lines that look sleek in super chic rooms.
  • Keep to natural colours for walls using vibrant colours for furnishings sparingly and creatively – the result being splashes of colour.

Traditional oak flooring in contemporary homes can create just the right impression for the super chic look.
