    Floor colour: 5 good reasons to choose pale wood

    There are several design preoccupations to consider when choosing a new wood floor. Colour is one of the most important. If your heart is leaning toward pale wood, here are 5 good reasons you won't regret it.

    Pale wood brightens any space

    This wood colour is highly recommended if your room is small and dark. It's an easy way to make the room feel more spacious and luminous. Indeed, the natural light of the room is reflected on the pale wooden floor and creates the illusion that you've got a bigger room.

    Pale wood is more comforting

    The color of a floor influences the atmosphere of a room. Wood itself is a material that reassures and adds warmth. Light wood, in particular, combines the natural and raw appearance of wood with the soft and refined character of its color. Choosing a light wood means choosing lightness, softness and smoothness. Basically, it has all the qualities you need to attract happiness and well-being.

    Pale wood is surprisingly low maintenance 

    It's simple, the lighter your floor, the less visible the dirt and dust. On a dark floor, dust is much more visible. Light-colored varieties of wood, such as White Oak, offer a tonally rich and contrasting appearance. It is a good choice if you're interested in hiding the imperfections caused by life's mishaps. If you have any questions regarding the maintenance of your floor, we invite you to download our maintenance guide in the documentation section of our website.

    Light wood is in style

    Pale wood floors, with beige or grey palettes, are everywhere right now. In particular, the Red Oak Ivoor. We adore its modern, textured appearance, and we suggest a low-gloss surface. A pale wood complements homes that tend toward a more Scandinavian style. When selecting the colour of your walls, go for a shade that's in the same range. Choosing colours that are only a little lighter or a little darker will achieve a beautiful harmony.

    Pale wood is safe and bold at the same time

    Light wood is a balancing choice for your floor. If you're after a nice eclectic result, you can rely on this classic wood with its smooth texture and refined colour, specific to contemporary decor. If you like contrast, use dark colours for your rooms to make your floors pop.
