Custom design in cork gives light and warmth to dark kitchen
Laura wasn’t kidding when she said her new kitchen floor had to create a warmer, brighter space than the brown vinyl that once covered the floor in this room with very little natural light.
Something natural that was indoor-air friendly would also be a plus, Laura thought as she began to research different floors. Tile was her first choice. But the cement board required as an underlayment would have raised the kitchen floor much higher than the adjoining rooms of carpet, hardwood and slate.
She found a design – in cork flooring tiles – that she liked online, and selected colors for her own custom look.
