Urban Chic Starts Underfoot – 5 Trends for 2018

Just as there is a lot which is unique about flooring solutions, in an urban or commercial setting, there is also a lot which is unique about Top Carpets and Floors. For starters, we are South Africa’s largest flooring group and our branches are individually owned, which we believe gives each of our more than 120 stores an urban flavour tailored to its specific area.

We particularly love helping individual homeowners elevate their urban living spaces into something truly exclusive and stunning with the right flooring choice. Our customers rely on us to help them make the right choice of urban flooring which is current, high performing and will last for many years to come – while adding value to their homes.

These are our top 5 predictions for 2018 when it comes to urban flooring…

Trend 1: The natural look

The demand by urban customers for finishes that resemble natural materials will continue. It has been popular for many years now, with laminate especially opening up a whole new world for lovers of natural-looking flooring at a fraction of the cost. The sheer variety of laminates available and their ability to stand the test of time continue to make them a trending trend in urban flooring.

Trend 2: Rugs

The latest trends in modern urban flooring choices indicate that homeowners are becoming increasingly creative and adventurous with flooring. What better way to spruce up an urban space and make it super trendy than with a few of the right rugs? We have an online designer rug shop. We understand our urban customers, and online shopping is by no means restricted to groceries! Urban flooring solutions are best explored (because there is just so much out there), so jump online with us if you are in the market for a snazzy designer rug or two.

Trend 3: Eco-friendly

The planet comes first – no urbanite is going to argue with that! There has been a massive swing in the past few years towards sustainable and responsible manufacturing processes when it comes to flooring, and customers want this hallmark on the products that they buy. Any company selling urban flooring today who is not supporting green initiatives is unlikely to sustain their customer base into 2018!

Trend 4: An affordable price tag

With the rand value being what it is, customers today are more careful when it comes to spending their hard-earned money. This is especially true when it comes to long-term investments, which is exactly what a new carpet or floor is. As such, urban customers want flooring that is durable and wears well underfoot, while also looking stunning.

Trend 5: Home renovation

Flooring is a popular home renovation choice. Homeowners are recognising the value that good urban flooring solutions can add to their homes without breaking the bank. Our advice has always been to be sure to involve a professional and you will be assured of lasting, beautiful urban flooring, which you will probably love so much that you may even take your home off the market!
