You can get basically 3 types of floating floors. I have different types of flooring explained on my website and it shows you the make up of each floor... What I would look for is....a floating timber floor with a minimum of 6mls of timber on it.. This way you can actually sand the floor just like a regular floor board. Make sure that you have someone to lay it that has experience...it is not just clicking it together... Also, make sure that whoever puts it down used and underlay...it is a thin sheet ...just as you would under carpet to stop any moisture and thirdly ... make sure that they run a glue line down each piece on the join, this will minimize movement. I have the different types on my website that you can have a look at and you sill see the difference. Hope this helps....Robyn www.wildinfusion.wix.com/wild-infusion-blog

Carpet. Ugly, grey, literally-threadbare carpet. It is something we intend to get rid of, but carpet here isn't easy, in choice or available installers. But we'll go again with it, with something industrial-strength like we had at a previous house, a warm, dark brown most likely, to deal with the dogs and the dirt and the everything else that still manages to get inside past the mudroom.

The photo below is my suggestion for colour of floor. Furniture should be darker - similar to below. For the rug - choose one colour from the artwork and find a similar coloured rug. Don't put a mantle over the fireplace - it could be a health hazard - bumps and bruises. Blinds - unless you want them to make a statement I think white - to match window frames would be fine.

Hi Flexico, We love the first option - bright colours! We also suggest accommodating your garage with a few green touches as it would help to bring brightness and character to the garage. For example, you could add light green storage boxes or maybe a simple green coloured painting? Best of luck with your project
