Warm, Natural Tones and Lighter Shades

Currently, warmer, natural tones and lighter shades are making the biggest splash in residential flooring. And what’s not to love? Floors that capture the natural look of freshly cut wood with subtle warm undertones have moved to the forefront for good reason. Homeowners love these fresh-cut details, which are also easily seen in ethereal warm and cool shades, pale ivory, and powdery soft grays.

What About Gray?

Cool gray has long been a favorite neutral of homeowners and interior designers alike, more recently making its way into wood flooring from dark earthy charcoals to soft airy tones.

Although the overall wood flooring market has seen the palette shift towards fresh, warmer colors, gray remains a go-to hue for chic, modern interiors.

Whether you crave an icy iridescence or a light, airy vibe, this will capture attention and hearts with ease.

Reds and Oranges are Starting to Reappear

While traditional red and orange wood tones have not been the most popular shades in recent years, Pantone’s Living Coral pick for Color of the Year will definitely revitalize these color choices.

Popular natural wood colors are already receiving subtle oranges in warm undertones, and this year’s saturated browns have shifted towards red.

Clearly, this trend will continue to produce dazzling results such as this gorgeous.

Colors in Design

So, how do these color trends play out in an actual design scheme? The move to more natural and warmer wood tones plays well in the most forward-looking designs. Softer woods lend relaxed elegance to interiors inspired by simplicity, while planks with natural colors speak to the organic forms of mid-century design.
