We gave our showroom team a challenge: style one living room three ways for a young family with pets, where Mom wants something easy to clean but still true to her minimalist style. Read below to see our team's three flooring picks and why each one works for a busy household that still wants a clean, pulled-together look.
Jewel Gingerich: Anderson Tuftex Arbor in Seashell
Jewel went with Arbor because it's thick and soft for little hands and feet, but tight and durable enough to handle a busy household. The subtle design adds depth without taking over the room, and paired with an upgraded pad, she says everyone will want to sit on the floor.
Conrad Bontrager: Blonde Oak LVP
Conrad chose Blonde Oak for its versatility. It's uniform enough for a clean, modern space with enough character to work in a traditional or rustic room too. The rounded bevels are a feature customers ask for all the time, and the soft step backing cuts down on sound and keeps the floor warmer underfoot, so the room doesn't feel echoey the way a lot of LVP can.
Julie Yoder: Pet Perfect, Favoured Path in Marble
Julie chose this one because it can stand up to the demands of kids and pets and has a beautiful, striking design element.
