Best Colours by Flooring Type: Laminate
May 19, 2021

Bring Laminate and Colour into Your Space
Here’s the thing about laminate—the colour options seem endless. Compared to hardwood, laminate provides a very similar look at a lower price point with plenty of colour options and finishes to choose from. Plus, it’s more scratch-resistant, durable, and resilient when it comes to moisture, and it’s easier to install. With so many options, choosing the right colour can be overwhelming.
The best laminate option for your space is dependent on your vision. Flooring is harder to change and update compared to walls, artwork, and furniture. So, lots of consideration should go into choosing your flooring colour, and it should be chosen before other details.
When you begin looking at vast sample booklets, it might be challenging to know where to start. Before you head over to your local Flooring Canada store, we recommend creating a mood board and collecting inspiration. Pinterest boards, magazine cutouts, or colour palettes can help narrow down your options.
In addition, as you begin doing research, you might find décor styles that fit your vision like shabby chic, minimalist, farmhouse, traditional, beachy—the list goes on. This is important because if you have a theme, it will rule out a lot of colour options and make it easier to choose the right one. For example, traditional décor calls for a rich cherry colour, where a beachy design naturally leans toward whitewashed or light tones. By creating a clear vision, the right colour choice will be easier to make, leaving you with a floor you love.
