This Home Will Have You Seriously Considering White Floorboards

Look at it, just look at it. It’s a freakin’ spectacle of interiors purity and elegance and cool sophistication. All because of some white floorboards.

You might’ve poo-pooed the notion when you first renovated your crib, but second time around? Don’t deny yourself white floorboards’ majesty any longer. Don’t let their imposing impracticality deter you; this is all an act.

According to our interior design couple crush, Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent, white flooring hides dirt/scuff marks more effectively than darker colours. You think it’s going to be the other way around, but the darker the floorboard, the more of a colour contrast you get with dirt and dust, thus the more obviously it shows up. We know. This is the best news we’ve heard all day.

White floorboards do so much for a space: opening it up, instantly lightening and making the whole room feel brighter, fresher. They’re a blank canvas that can work with any design theme, whether that’s Miami Heat or Coachella desert-chic.

So as you get some floor paint, or buy some pre-made white floorboards (no judgement), consider these delicious seating options to pair with them.
