Create a Focal Pointe
Whether it be an armoire, entertainment console, piano or fireplace, create a floor plan designed around that piece. It will center the room. Neutrals always make a great canvas for a room with bold furnishings or other elements that you may want to be the focal point of your home.
The Fifth Wall
The floor is the fifth wall to any room. Don't ignore it! Give your room character and presence by choosing a floor that works with your design.
Color Selection
Color can have a significant effect on a room. Lighter colors can brighten up an area or enhance a small space. While dark colors can add a cozy, rich, luxurious feel and create a stunning and dramatic look in a room.
Sizing Up Your Options
Patterned rugs will visually decrease the size of the room because the eye is drawn to the pattern. While solid color wall-to-wall carpet will increase the visual size of the room.
Tile Style
Most tile collections have special tiles for creating designs and decorative borders within a tile pattern. These options can help you to easily put together an exquisite, detailed look for your home. But what do you do if the tile you love doesn't have matching trim pieces? Well, suitable replacement trim tile can usually be found. But don't overlook stone, wood, or metal trim that can also provide a clean finished edge and a uniquely stunning accent to your tile design.
