#TuesdayTips - Key flooring trends for 2017

Posted 10 January 2017 by Ben Salisbury

As we enter 2017, David Bigland from flooring manufacturer Moduleo gives his take on what will be the key flooring trends this year...

As we enter the New Year, property interior designs enter a new season and new trends emerge for 2017.

In this feature we take a look at what is likely to emerge this year as the most popular and coolest flooring options.

David Bigland, managing director of luxury vinyl flooring manufacturer, Moduleo UK and Eire, predicts the key flooring trends for 2017:

Geometric

2017’s hero trend will be geometric design with a huge rise in consumers already opting for this quirky and eccentric look throughout their homes.

Traditionally, consumers implemented geometric shapes into their interiors through wallpaper and accessories. However, we’ve had an incredibly positive response to our triangle, hexagon and diamond shaped tiles in particular. 

Customers can combine ten brand-new flooring formats. Up to 110 unique wood and stone-effect designs can be created using the wide range of tile shapes available.

Geometric flooring offers a striking, contemporary finish which takes centre stage to provide a creative and sleek ambience. This look is extremely versatile and works well in most rooms, especially living rooms, kitchens and bathrooms.

Grey tones

Next year we’re anticipating the popularity of grey flooring to continue to grow. In recent months, grey has proven to be the go-to choice for those looking to decorate their bedrooms and living rooms.

The look is traditional with a modern twist, and is ideal for creating a comfortable and welcoming environment all year round.

Timeless tiles

Classic interior design looks are most definitely here to stay for 2017 and beyond. As vintage and retro trends continue to dominate the housing market, traditional woods are certainly still fashionable for the home.

Whether it be a contemporary apartment in the city, or a Victorian terrace in the country, classic woods offer the versatility to look equally at home in just about any environment.

All about textures

As interior design trends continue to be inspired by the great outdoors, we predict that natural wood-effect products featuring registered emboss will continue to be in demand for the year ahead.

As consumers look to create a warm and cosy feeling throughout their homes, textured rustic finishes will be on trend for areas of relaxation, such as the living room and the bedroom.

Bespoke is better

Creating a truly unique look is becoming a bigger priority and next year, as the catalogue of products on the market continues to develop, consumers will be faced with more options than ever before – making a bespoke look much more accessible to the masses.

The Moduleo Moods room visualiser is now live on our website, and thanks to the vast choice of shapes, sizes and colours available, a bespoke look is now available at the click of a button.
