There are many reasons
you would want a design consultation
when shopping for
flooring. First of
all, flooring is a significant investment in your home-- probably the biggest
investment--but it's not something we shop for often. Flooring sets the tone of
the entire room, and sometimes even the whole house, which is why designers
always say "design from the floor up." Designers also see flooring as
your expression of personal style. A design
consultation will help you think aloud to lead the way with an experienced
designer's expertise. They’re usually done in your home, so the designers can
work with your lighting, upholstery, and colors and often take measurements.
It’s impossible to have the same floors throughout the entire house
because every room has its challenges and priorities. So while it doesn’t need
to match, it does need to coordinate. When you walk into your flooring company
in Crestwood, KY, you will see that we have a whole department devoted to
custom area rugs and rug binding. Very
often, our customers are concerned about covering up beautiful floors. Still,
an interior designer will show you how to accent and highlight them to bring
out the gorgeous undertones, helping you coordinate those complementary
products with the floor, whether it’s an area rug, window coverings,
countertop, etc.
