Dream a Little Dream…
Master Suites and Guest Rooms
B
edrooms have evolved from being solely a sleeping space. Of course, they need to serve the sleep function, but today’s bedrooms are also a comfortable space to wind down and relax, read, watch videos, and perhaps daydream. The furnishings of a bedroom are more intimate than those found in the public areas of a house. You have more options in this space to express your specific tastes. If there is enough space for a bed and a sitting area, it’s fun to have warm, kind-to-your-feet rugs for the two rooms. These area rugs should be placed on top of the main flooring to set the room’s design stage. LVT wood planks can easily be worked into a rich herringbone pattern that is at once contemporary yet still releases your inner Marie Antoinette.
Nurseries are all about surfaces that are kind to the baby and simple to keep spotless. A non-porous floor with washable area rugs meets the requirements for ease of care and cleanliness. Because the floor will host activities like rolling over, sitting, crawling, and eventually walking, it needs to have some give. With all these floor-centric goings-on, a heated floor will keep all parties comfortable. Resilient flooring is a top choice for the nursery, meeting all requirements. ■
