110 Stylish And Cool Floor Transition Ideas

stylish and cool floor transition ideas cover

Open floor plans are very popular today, all the rooms mixed in one is a regular thing. You can accentuate your areas using various space dividers, accents and floor covers. Tiles in the kitchen, wood in the living room, concrete in the entryway – how to make a transition between them in a cool way? Here are some ideas that may help you.

Make The Transition Irregular

Design your floor so the switch happens in a shaped, curved or diagonal line instead of something straight and right-angled. Cut your wooden floors to match edge of the tile, whether it’s square, hexagonal or any other else, and you’ll get a stylish and eye-catchy transition that will accentuate different zones in your home.

Split The Line With Furniture

Interrupt the space where the two floor treatments meet by placing a feature or a piece of furniture right on top of it. A kitchen island, chairs, a sofa, a table or any other furniture can bridge the gap between the kitchen tile and the hardwoods in the rest of the open floor plan.

Add A Buffer Zone

If you’d rather two floors not meet at all–like in the case of different shades of hardwood floors–consider a buffer zone of accent tile in-between. The wood looks like it’s all the same color, but you can imagine how the tile buffer here would ease a transition between floors that clash.
