That is why we have put together this style guide, including our favourite eight luxury vinyl colour ideas, to help inspire you on your journey to a more beautiful interior space!
Dark coloured vinyl
Many people will shy away from use of darker colours or tones, especially when it comes to flooring. The larger expanses of flooring can deter homeowners from choosing darker shades. However, choosing a vinyl floor in darker hues can add a cosy feel to rooms, no matter what the size, and when combined with decadent and rich colours in the furnishings, such as navy, dark greens, and purples, you can create a feeling of dramatic opulence which is perfect for the colder evenings or rooms that feel too vast.

Neutrals
A neutral colour palette is always going to be a favourite for interior design thanks to its ability to work with all styles and strong colour accents. Traditionally bringing a light and bright feel to a room, neutral coloured vinyl flooring such as a soft caramel for a traditional finish or a light grey for a contemporary look is a must if you want to make the most of your natural lighting and create a feeling of more space around your home.
Our EvoCore Arctic Oak luxury vinyl tiles https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/evocore-design-floor-artisan-arctic-oak.html can work in almost any room, combine with darker furniture for a classic contrast or keep your furnishings and accessories neutral in tone for a more modern finish.
Greys
Grey is a hot colour trend right now and grey flooring is no exception. With a range of different styles, shades and tones, grey vinyl can provide the ideal finish to a range of home décor designs.
The grey colour palette is remarkably versatile, from dark charcoals, through to pale silver, which allows it to work for any room in a house, so it is no wonder that it is the perfect fit for vinyl flooring and is the go-to colour for many interior decorators and homeowners alike.
With a variety of different patterns and styles to suit all tastes, you can use cooler greys to complement warmer furnishings, or use a mix of neutral tones and darker greys to create depth and sophistication. Grey flooring also provides the perfect background to vibrant colour, so you can be bold in your colour choices!
If you are looking for a wood effect finish, then our EvoCore Enhance design in charcoal grey oak is a perfect compromise for colour and has a beautiful design that works for a range of spaces. https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/evocore-design-floor-enhance-charcoal-grey-oak.html
White vinyl
White is synonymous with a modern and minimalist style and as such, lends itself well to vinyl flooring. You can go for a whitewashed effect which can create a beautiful English cottage feel to your home, or a more Scandinavian style, which is perfect for furniture with clean lines. Add a splash of colour to brighten up your room or go for dark furnishings and accessories to create a dramatic contrast.
Our Herringbone in White Rustic Oak lends itself well to most styles of home interiors. https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/herringbone-white-rustic-oak-lvt-flooring.html
Stone effect
Stone floors may look beautiful but they are often cold and hard to keep clean, that is why stone effect vinyl tiles offer the ideal compromise between aesthetics and use.
Our Venice vinyl floor tile in Murano concrete is a great example of how vinyl flooring can mimic stone without the hefty price tag. https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/venice-tile-murano-concrete-lvt-flooring.html
If you’re looking for something more traditional, go for a light grey such as our Lunar landing https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/evocore-premium-tiles-lunar-landing.html or if you want the look of stone with a more contemporary feel, go for a darker slate grey.
Patterned vinyl
Patterned flooring is particularly on trend this year and vinyl can offer an array of designs and colours to match even the most unique of personalities!
Herringbone and chevron patterns are popular choices for smaller spaces as they trick the eye into thinking the room is longer than it is, add to that the beautiful colours available in these patterns and you can create a flowing feel without the pattern being too overpowering for the room.
Patterned tiles are often reserved for the bathroom or kitchen in your home, but they can be used to add character throughout.
Wood finish
Luxury vinyl tiles may conjure up images of laminate bathroom flooring, or brown and orange lino. However, the wood effect finish is one of the most popular choices for homes that want the benefits of vinyl tiles with the appearance of real wood.
From natural to antique oak colours for a classic feel, and from the lighter wood effect to brighten up rooms and the more modern trend of dark grey finishes, vinyl tiles offer a fantastic range of choice. So, if you’re looking to balance out any chosen colour scheme but still want a wood finish, then look no further than LVTs.
Our Sherwood Oak is the perfect colour to give the impression of real wood. https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/evocore-design-floor-artisan-sherwood-oak.html
Natural
Natural colours can often be seen as boring. However natural colours, especially when combined with a wood finish can provide an ideal base to let your creativity run wild in other areas of a room. Choose vivid colours to contrast with the natural flooring, or stay sedate and calm by adding cream and brown furniture, furnishing and accessories. After all, classic is classic for a reason!
Our natural woodland oak is an excellent choice for those looking for a more natural floor. https://www.directwoodflooring.co.uk/evocore-design-floor-enhance-natural-woodland-oak.html
