Checkered Floors

Posted on January 23, 2012 by Ivy de Leon

A checkered pattern floor can add dimension and visual interest to any room. The flooring is usually made from durable tile or laminate, making it easy to clean.  I have a checkered pattern floor in the mudroom.  It’s very practical for muddy, winter shoes.  Place the tiles on a diagonal for added interest.  You’ll find the pattern is strong, but neutral.  They are not only for country kitchens…

    I agree, floors with interest add so much to a space. Isn’t black and white flooring so timeless and classic?!
