FLOORING TRENDS TO STAY ON TOP OF

With 2026 right around the corner, many industry experts are eager to list upcoming home decor trends. When it comes to flooring, some trends stand the test of time whereas others don’t necessarily age well, so think long-term before diving into one of these hot flooring options. Wide plank flooring has been popular for the last few years and decorators see 2026 following the trend. Wooden floors in light tones and natural finishes are the most popular and the wide planks make spaces feel more modern, elegant and larger. Herringbone plank flooring is another more stable, yet somewhat trendy option if you like the look of wood but want something a little more unique. The interlocking V-shaped planks create a modern, luxurious look. When you’re looking for flooring that will make your space feel warm and cozy, look no further than wall-to-wall carpet. Low-pile finishes in earthy tones layered with area rugs create a functional and stylish look that designers are using in bedrooms and living spaces alike. The best part about layering is that the area rug can be changed out as your decor tastes change.
