Choosing the right flooring is a pivotal decision as it sets the tone for any space, says Natasha Suri, Principal Architect, Studio Ivory. But, while the material options for flooring are fairly extensive, some materials are better suited to certain kinds of buildings. CW explores.
“Marble offers a timeless elegance and is relatively low maintenance, easily rejuvenated with a simple buffing,” says Suri. “However, it’s important to note potential drawbacks such as susceptibility to staining, particularly with lighter stones, and the risk of cracking if not installed correctly.” For bedrooms, Suri continues, many prefer the cozy warmth of wooden flooring, especially during winters, which adds a comforting ambiance to the room. “We’ve also combined wooden flooring in day rooms with tiles,” she continues.
