14/12/2023

The impact of flooring on any interior design is comprehensive and definitive. Parquets, influencing the overall appearance, atmosphere, and tone of a space, play a crucial role in design with their materials, colors, shapes, and textures. As we approach the end of 2023, in this article, we take a look at the parquet preferences, anticipated popular models, and trends we are likely to encounter in 2024!

Sustainable Flooring

Designers suggest that the emphasis on sustainability is set to be one of the themes influencing our flooring choices in the coming year. As consumers and design professionals actively seek clean, renewable, and sustainable materials for their homes and projects, innovative bio-based flooring alternatives are rising to the top of the lists.

Sustainability in hardwood flooring extends from the supply and production of wood products. Many manufacturers are now firmly committed to responsible forestry practices. Reclaimed wood flooring, sourced from old barns and structures, conserves timber resources and adds character to the flooring with unique features like nail holes and wear. The preference for sustainable and eco-friendly floor coverings demonstrates a stance in harmony with environmental values.

In 2024, sustainability is a significant factor in hardwood flooring trends. Homeowners are increasingly opting for environmentally friendly wood flooring materials to reduce their ecological footprint. For instance, bamboo flooring is gaining popularity due to its rapid growth and renewable nature. Bamboo grows significantly faster than traditional hardwood trees, making it an environmentally conscious choice. The emergence of more sustainable materials is anticipated in the market in 2024.

Natural Colors and Rustic Charm

With an increasing focus on sustainability and using natural colors in interior spaces, the trend towards natural colors seems likely to continue for some time. The simplicity and comfort of natural wood fulfill the relaxing luxury that many people seek. Homeowners are increasingly drawn to wood flooring with warm, earthy tones that create a sense of harmony and connection with the environment. This preference for natural floor colors reflects an eco-conscious lifestyle approach.

The desire to connect with nature leads to an appreciation of natural textures in wood flooring. The rustic and modern farmhouse style appears to maintain its dominance in 2024. Adam Vester, Mohawk's Senior Design Director for wood and laminate, states, "We see a desire for living spaces to become retreats where we can disconnect from our daily lives and recharge with soft-spoken energy." He adds, "The farmhouse style continues to be a steady decor trend, evolving towards warm minimalism with influences from Scandinavian design."

Rustic parquets enhance living spaces with warmth and authenticity by revealing the natural texture and imperfections of wood. The raw textures and organic forms of this style create an appealing sense of charm for interiors with fewer knots and a distinctive character.

Light Colors and Subtle Surfaces

Natural and light wood tones in parquets have been a trend for several years, and designers unanimously agree that this trend will continue into 2024. Light-colored wood flooring represents a trend of minimalist elegance, offering inclusive versatility for interior design projects. Delicate wood tones such as oak, maple, or birch add a sophisticated touch to various living spaces. Heather Goerzen, Design Director at Havenly, notes, "We see many clients embracing white oaks for a natural, neutral space that seamlessly embraces a variety of design aesthetics from minimalist to traditional."

Another significant feature of light-colored wood flooring is its ability to create a bright and airy atmosphere in rooms. While providing endless possibilities to decorate and personalize your living environment, light-colored wood flooring enhances the freshness and tranquility in your home by reflecting natural light.

Wider Planks and Stronger Surfaces

Wooden flooring, which has been expanding over the years, is set to become even wider in 2024. Jessica Dorling, owner and chief designer of Dorling Design Studio, anticipates that extra-wide 10-inch planks will become more popular in the coming year. Dorling states, "This contemporary design takes inspiration from European design, adding a sense of natural freshness to interior spaces."

The resurgence of wider parquet floors allows for a greater showcase of the natural veins and diversity of wood. These planks can be polished for a smooth and contemporary look or left with a rustic surface for a more characterful appearance. The popularity of wider planks, providing a suitable option for both commercial and residential settings, exerts a significant influence on the overall appearance of flooring compared to traditional narrow planks, offering a robust quality for design.

Make Room for Patterns!

If you're considering adding a unique touch to a space in your home, you can include patterned wood flooring in your options! Herringbone and chevron patterns are making a strong comeback in parquet flooring in 2024. These intricate and eye-catching patterns bring a timeless sense of elegance to any space. The different arrangements of wood panels add a sophisticated touch and visual quality to living rooms, dining areas, and even bedrooms.

Reed & Acanthus founder Katharine Rhudy from New Orleans, Louisiana, mentions that we will frequently see chevron and herringbone patterns, expressing satisfaction with the aesthetics they offer. "Patterned wood floors are a classic way to make a bold statement in the kitchen, hallway, or dining room." Especially popular in contemporary and transitional home designs, these patterns offer a fresh perspective on traditional wood flooring.

Dendro's Squares and Patterns collections provide a new space for thinking about alternative flooring forms! These collections, creating different patterns with different geometries, include specific productions. In the Patterns Collection, in addition to patterns created using the same parquet, productions that add movement by changing the plate thickness or harmonious combinations captured with different colors stand out. Each production in this collection radiates energy, making it highly suitable for creating a dynamic space. The patterns of the Squares Collection draw inspiration from the atmosphere of spaces, art, and artists, standing out as a distinguished design component. Enriching spatial experience and creating a visual feast, these patterns enhance the stylistic sense of interior design, and the Squares and Patterns collections, offering the possibility of bringing together different colors and textures, seem poised to make a frequent appearance in 2024!
