Flooring can be soft and luxurious, sleek and elegant, or anything in between.  There is a vast quantity of material and color choices available for flooring.  If you are in need of a hypoallergenic floor that is easy to clean, your choices can encompass materials such as durable porcelain, (as pictured to the left in a diagonal installation), or beautiful traditional hardwoods, eco-friendly bamboo or cork, or even economical laminate.  If seeking flooring for comfort,  a soft floor covering like carpet might be more suitable to your needs.  

Carpet: Almost any color,pattern, and texture, can be obtained in carpet. There is berber, cut pile, shag, and frieze, just to name a few textures.  Colors are virtually limited only by your imagination. 

Tile:  There is ceramic, porcelain and stone tile available in a wide range of sizes.  Stone can be purchased in granite, marble, or slate tiles.  Many different designs can be created out of tile.  There is diagonal, bricklay, straight, and also different patterns that can be created out of combining different sizes during installation.  A large number of decorative inserts and listellos are available to enhance the appearance of tile installations. 

Hardwoods & Engineered Floors:  Hardwoods offer a timeless asthetic appeal, they have always been a popular flooring choice and offer the benefit of being able to be refinished.  Both hardwoods & engineered floors come in a wide range of wood choices, colors, & widths.  Engineered floors can frequently be applied in places where hardwoods might not be suitable, such as over certain types of slabs.

Eco-friendly options: Bamboo, cork, ...

It is becoming increasingly popular to use environmentally friendly materials in building and home decorating.  There are naturally renewable flooring choices available, as well as recycled ones. Bamboo is a great naturally renewable eco friendly flooring choice.  It is a rapidly replinishing grass and now comes in a wide range of colors and widths, not to mention that it is harder than some species of hardwoods.  Cork is another great option, it is actually the harvested bark of a tree, and the same tree can be harvested periodically for over a hundred years. Don't forget that cork is also highly moisture resistant and a great sound reducer.  As far as recycled materials go, there is even carpet available that is manufactured from recycled bottles.  Laminates are available made from recycled tires, and glass tile can be purchased that has been manufactured from a portion of recycled glass.
