2025’s Flooring Trends: Paving the New Year in Style

2025 is now here!

With a new year ringing in new trends, there’s also opportunities to put a new lease on life to your home! And what better way than a fresh new set of flooring.

With sophisticated browns and a more down to earth feel being the trend this year, it is no surprise that wood patterns are in. With the pitch for sustainability, a return to nature, and a need to relax and unwind, wood textures and patterns are a way to go for homes. But one does not need to spend too much to have wooden flooring, especially with wooden flooring alternatives being available. Which brings into scope another trend, sustainable flooring. Where instead of using wood, alternatives are widely and readily available.

Luxury Vinyl Planks are one of the trending and viable flooring alternatives. They are known to be durable, made of several layers of material put together. They are economical and practical, often selected as a more affordable alternative to traditional flooring such as wood or tile, but remain to be a popular choice among homeowners. This leads to many designs that mimic wood or stone, to even festive and decorative patterns on the floor. With 2025 rolling in, it’s predicted that Vinyl Planks would even be a popular choice for newer homeowners looking for a practical flooring solution. Which can even be combined with other materials such as tiles to create a new sophisticated look.

Another huge trend in the flooring space is large format tiling. Large format tiles aren’t exactly new. However, the trend now is to create wider and more seamless floor patterns. Using bigger tiling of 24” x 24” and above to maximize space and minimize the use of grout. Creating a more unified look on the floor. Combined with the trend of either pattern, and a more unified stone and cement look, large format tiles used on floors sees a rise in popularity, making installation of tiles faster and more convenient while creating seamless patterns on the floor.

Speaking of patterns, they are the upcoming trend for flooring. Bold patterns and colors take and make the room center stage. With textured finishes bringing in extra character to the floor. With mosaic tiles or patterned tiles making center stage. On the other hand, parquet flooring makes a comeback with a more traditional look that is still timeless and beautiful.

Of course, nothing is more timeless than picking sustainable and longer lasting materials. Picking from a list of recycled materials, manufacturers are now using more sustainable sources, or breathing life from old wood. Taking from bamboo, which is a more easily grown wood alternative and inspires Asian and Scandanavian styles, to using reclaimed wood, recycling and breathing new life into old materials for a more vintage look, to cork, which uses only the outer layer of the tree to create a softer texture and using a renewable source from existing trees.
