Which Kitchen Flooring is Best for You?

When it comes to designing a kitchen, what you hear the most is the types of faucets and fixtures they wish for or the color of the wall they want in their new kitchen. But what most people tend to forget about in regards to their kitchen is the flooring. The types of floors are just as important as your choice of faucet or cabinetry. A kitchen’s design is about the entire room, not just the smaller details like backsplashes or the faucet’s finish. So, make sure the flow of your kitchen is smooth and put-together with a little help from Kingston. We have a little list of perfect kitchen flooring and faucet pairings for you to look at and maybe get a little inspired to vamp up your kitchen.

White Oak and Polished Chrome

The two bring a timeless and aesthetically pleasing look to the kitchen, like a pristine and picture-perfect view for any homeowner. If you are into a cleaner and sleeker look with a touch of rustic flair to your kitchen, then white oak floors and a polished chrome faucet is your perfect match.

Wood Vinyl and Brushed Nickel

The number one choice for an alternative to traditional wood floors is wood vinyl flooring. It looks like wood, but it is a lot more durable because it is softer on the foot than normal hardwood is. If you are more conscious about durability than anything else, then wood vinyl is for you. Pair it with a brushed nickel faucet to really enhance the wood vinyl’s look. Brushed nickel will balance out the look and make your kitchen’s look flow smoother.
