Vinyl plank flooring is a great flooring option for many reasons. This type of flooring mimics a wide range of materials to give you a designer look with easy maintenance at a fraction of the cost. With so many styles available, it may be difficult to decide which pattern you like best. Here is how to choose the pattern that suits your home design.

1. Straight Planks

For many homeowners, straight plank flooring is the ideal flooring. This type of flooring layout is exactly what it sounds like – it's a pattern that's made up of a straight board-like design.

This pattern is favored for many different decor settings, including contemporary and traditional designs. The straight planks can elongate a room and have a timeless look. It's most often associated with hardwood floors and is often available in different widths.

2. Rustic Patterns

Rustic patterns involve different-sized planks laid randomly. These patterns are favored in farmhouse-style homes, industrial-styled homes, and casual spaces. They deliver a relaxed look.

The benefit of this vinyl plank flooring style is that it adds age to a space. If you are looking for a casual rustic look, then you will love this pattern. As a bonus, like all vinyl flooring, there are various colors to choose from.

3. Chevron and Herring Bone

Vinyl planks deliver a wide range of pattern options. Chevron and herringbone patterns are two options for those looking to add a little more design to their flooring. These intricate patterns add visual interest to any room. They can highlight a space and add a touch of elegance. They can work really well in large spaces. Choosing the right pattern for your hardwood-like floors is essential, and getting the right support can make the process easier.
