What are the current trends in hardwood flooring?
Hardwood and exotic imported woods are the hottest materials in flooring today. Oak in both white and red is still the most popular of the flooring species. For new construction and floor renovation traditional favorites like birch, maple, cherry and walnut are frequently used. For these customary hardwood floors, many consumers now want wider planks than the traditional 2" or 2 1/2" wide planks to achieve an irregular, casual look. In addition to standards such as oak, exotic cousins are quickly coming to the forefront of the hardwood scene. Some of the atypical varieties gaining popularity right now are Brazilian Cherry, Cork, and Bamboo.
Technically a grass, bamboo is considered a wood due to its hardness. It has become very popular with "greenies" due to its rapid regrowth. Often grown just for flooring and furniture, bamboo is an easily and quickly renewable resource. Bamboo is very dent-resistant compared to standard hardwoods, and can be sanded and refinished up to three or four times. In the past flooring options such as bamboo were primarily used by interior designers and architects for its visual appeal. As more homeowners seek to create healthy homes that minimize impact on the environment, the use of natural and recycled woods continues to grow. Environmentally conscious buyers like that natural woods such as bamboo can be easily replenished without depleting our natural resources. Practical patrons like the fact that it's as hard as red oak, and harder than cherry and walnut. Design conscious customers enjoy its exotic and versatile style. Taking note of this growing trend, Luna in addition to their already vast hardwood inventory, now offers an environmentally conscious green option for flooring - the new BellaVerde line.
