Patterns, Borders, and Medallions for Hardwood Floors
Hardwood flooring is more than just a surface—it’s a design element that can elevate the entire feel of your home. Beyond choosing the right wood species or finish, homeowners today are embracing hardwood floor design trends that bring personality and style into every room. From timeless patterns like herringbone and chevron to elegant borders and custom medallions, there are endless ways to make your floors a true work of art. At Woodfloor Masters, we specialize in crafting unique, stylish installations that transform hardwood floors into stunning design statements.
Hardwood Flooring Patterns
Patterns are one of the most impactful ways to enhance the look of hardwood flooring. They can add sophistication, visual interest, and even make a room appear larger.
Herringbone
The herringbone pattern has been a design favorite for centuries, bringing old-world charm and timeless appeal. Planks are laid at right angles to create a “broken zigzag” effect.
- Benefits: Classic, elegant, and works well in both modern and traditional interiors.
- Best Spaces: Living rooms, dining rooms, and entryways where you want to make a strong impression.
Chevron
Similar to herringbone, the chevron pattern features planks cut at angles to form a continuous “V” shape. This creates a sleek, modern look with clean lines.
- Benefits: Adds movement and depth, perfect for contemporary spaces.
- Best Spaces: Hallways, open-concept areas, and stylish modern interiors.
Parquet
Parquet flooring uses small wood pieces arranged in geometric patterns such as squares, triangles, or diamonds. It’s a true design statement that brings luxury and artistry into the home.
- Benefits: Highly customizable, allowing for both subtle and bold designs.
- Best Spaces: Formal dining rooms, offices, and spaces where unique character is desired.
Borders and Inlays
Hardwood borders and inlays frame your space and give floors a polished, tailored appearance. They can be subtle accents or bold statements, depending on the design.
- Straight Borders: A simple frame that outlines the perimeter of the room.
- Contrasting Wood Borders: Use different species or stain colors for striking contrast.
- Inlays: Custom shapes or motifs embedded within the floor, adding a layer of personalization.
Borders and inlays are perfect for distinguishing areas within open floor plans, highlighting fireplaces, or creating elegant transitions between rooms.
Custom Hardwood Medallions
For homeowners seeking a one-of-a-kind statement piece, custom hardwood medallions are an excellent option. These decorative features are designed to be installed at focal points, such as entryways or under chandeliers.
- Design Flexibility: Medallions can incorporate multiple wood species, colors, and intricate designs—from traditional compass roses to modern abstract patterns.
- Impact: Instantly elevates a space, making your hardwood floor a true conversation piece.
At Woodfloor Masters, we collaborate with homeowners to design and install medallions that reflect personal style and architectural character.
