Kitchen floor ideas

Choosing a floor for a kitchen can be difficult as it should be practical and stylish at the same time. We wash, cut, cook, fall and spill many things in the kitchen so floors can survive and still look beautiful. Need ideas? Here we go!

Tile kitchen floors

Tile is one of the most durable and practical flooring options. You can hold many things with ease and look cool. The only thing that can happen to tiles is breaking them, but you have to drop something really heavy to break them. Choose eye-catching patterns and looks. The tiles can be the same as on the backsplash or slightly contrasting. If you want a calm look, choose neutral tiles for floor decoration. There are tiles imitating wood for those who want a warm touch.

brick and stone floors

Brick and stone are recommended if you want an unbreakable and durable covering for the floors. Whitewashed brick in some patterns gives your kitchen a relaxed look, and stone is all about rustic decor. You can also use pavers, which resemble stone or brick for a necessary look and are no less durable.

wood kitchen floors

Wood is the most fragile cover for the floor as it can dry and change shape. It can be damaged or soiled with various spilled substances. Don’t worry, today there are many cool surfaces on which wooden floors can survive various problems and still look good. Hardwood floors are great for all types of kitchens, from coastal to contemporary. It depends on the appearance of your wood.

Mixed kitchen floors

One of the hottest trends in home decor is mixing different floor types to emphasize different zones in your home. In the kitchen, this mixing can be caused by another reason: functionality. If you love wood but find it doesn’t stand up to cooking, consider playing around with tile or brick flooring underneath the cooking zones and wooden boards. Such a mixture looks very eye-catching and will help you protect your wood paneling.

vinyl floors

Vinyl can come in sheets or as tiles. It is a good choice for kitchen floors because of its practicality. Vinyl is easy to install and will stand up to common kitchen demands. It is usually waterproof, stain resistant and easy to maintain.

kitchen mats and rugs

Even a small, simple kitchen mat can add a cool touch to different floor types. It could add a pop of color to gray concrete or a touch of cosiness to matte looking tiles.
