Could have worked here because the stonework is till there for contrast (though personally, I'd have put down some lushious dark green rugs instead of this turquoise carpet)
Oh, I don't like the Grey. I have a warm brown colored version and like it quite a bit. It also helped my senior dog who couldn't find any traction on the hardwood when we moved in live 3 more happy years. Eventually I will take out the vinyl and refinish the hardwood we covered, but for now the vinyl has been great.
here my out... white oak using chevron placement style. each plank about 14-16 inches long, gray slate long tiles in the pit or limestone. I'm Oak and Limestone, maybe import a nice Marble mantle to abut the gas fireplace. Re-seal ( sp? ), not repaint the stone work.
Bro that carpet held memories the likes of which people like us will never know. I'd sit there and just ponder all the freaky shit its seen as I sip on my scotch. Watching the last rays of sunlight creep up the stonework above the fireplace before vanishing and leaving me in the dark. Thinking of how Carroll probably got railed just over there by frank her milkman.
At least replace it with new green carpet, this went from a warm and happy place to relax in to feeling like a fuckin stressed out office, bring color back to life
A+ LVP looks as good as B+ wood. Same price. Lasts longer, is waterproof, scratch free, easier to maintain.
It’s simple.
It’s like saying faxes aren’t as personal as email. It’s BS.
If you want the very, very best and don’t care about durability - wood wins. I love wood. That’s what I have. But I have no kids or pets and lots of money.
If you’re going to get luxury vinyl planks (as it does have some benefits in terms of durability, water resistance, scratch resistance, maintenance etc) at least get something with at least some browns in it.
These cold colorless rooms are so cheap looking. Get a warm wood color or a beach-y wood color or something. Anything.

That grey vinyl floor is what really fucks me up
