Bringing the Outdoors Inside with Flooring
Bringing the Outdoors Inside with Flooring
Choosing the right flooring for your home or workspace can feel like a daunting task, especially with so many options available nowadays. And lately, there’s been a growing trend towards bringing a touch of nature indoors to foster a peaceful and serene atmosphere in our living and working spaces.
Biophilic design – Connecting people with nature
In this month’s blog, we’re diving into the world of Biophilic design, which focuses on connecting people with nature within our built environments. At Carpets on the Move, we’re excited to share how flooring, including luxury vinyl flooring and vinyl plank flooring, can play a role in this design philosophy.
Eco-Friendly Flooring
Our eco-friendly flooring options not only provide durability and longevity but also cater to the demands of modern living. In addition to wool, a completely natural carpet solution, our Triexta range stands out as another sustainable choice. Crafted from plant-based materials, it boasts both stain resistance and durability, making it ideal for busy family homes seeking a green flooring solution.
Durability and Longevity
Opting for durable flooring not only ensures it lasts longer but also reduces the need for frequent replacements, minimising environmental impact. Natural materials like wood, stone, and bamboo not only look great but also bring warmth and texture into your space.
Earthy Tones
Warm, earthy tones like oak and cream are making a comeback, replacing the once-popular greys. These colours create a cozy and inviting atmosphere, connecting us with the natural world. Warm oak tones are also incredibly versatile and suit a range of design styles, pairing with both traditional or contemporary aesthetics.
Outdoor inspiration also appears to be influencing colour palette trends, with tones such as forest greens, soothing blues and browns, at the forefront. Not only do these colours create a calming environment, but they also represent nature and, in a way, bring the outdoors, inside.
Natural Textures
Textures such as plush velvets and rough-hewn woods add depth to living spaces, making them more inviting. Carpet tiles and vinyl planks, available at our carpet store, now mimic natural textures, bringing the outdoors in.
Indoor Plants and Lighting
Incorporating indoor plants and natural lighting can transform your space. Not only do plants add oxygen, but they also require minimal maintenance. Softer lighting, like lamps or natural light, creates a calming ambiance.
