Random widths bring character to your hardwood flooring

Random widths bring character to your hardwood flooring


You may already know that wood flooring is an outstanding choice for your home. It brings stunning visuals, impressive durability, and one of the most extended flooring lifespans.

But you might not know about the option for random width flooring. And this could be the look you've been waiting for.

What is random width hardwood?

Random width wood floors used to be much more common than they are now. But that style comes back with a force you may enjoy in your own home.

The style uses solid hardwood flooring widths of varying sizes, usually in 3, 5, and 7-inch widths. It can also add texture and a unique design to more modern designs for a little something different.

Mixed widths and room perception

Your plans for unique design will have a significant bearing on the way these floors work in any room. But they often make spaces seem oversized for the perfect small room experience.

This style trend came to its design height in the colonial period. That means random-width wood flooring is perfect for a colonial look in any room.

Choosing the best widths for any room

High ceilings and more significant than average rooms make great use of 4, 6, and 8-inch widths. Likewise, smaller widths are best used in smaller spaces.

If the room is already busy with furnishings or color, opt only for two widths. This helps prevent the visual character from going over the top.
