BEFORE & AFTER: A Fresh Look for a Tauranga Home with Brushed Oak Warm Natural Laminate Flooring

In Otūmoetai, Tauranga, a hidden home on the hill has been beautifully updated with the help of Floorboards laminate flooring. The choice of Perspective Nature Brushed Oak Warm Natural laminate flooring has given this house a modern and welcoming look.

Complementing a Modern Lifestyle

After finding their perfect home in Otūmoetai with expansive, uninterrupted views of the Tauranga Harbour, Matakana, Mauao and Pilot Bay, the homeowners relocated from Hamilton to enjoy the Tauranga lifestyle and scenic views. Although the location was perfect, the interior of the house felt dated, so they decided to give it a modern makeover.

The owners updated the interior by choosing a sleek white kitchen and our Perspective Nature Brushed Oak Warm Natural laminate flooring. These two changes made a significant difference to the home and their choices fitted perfectly with their existing furniture and space. The owners modernised the light fittings and added warm accents with cushions and throws to further tie the colours together.

AFTER: The oak-look laminate throughout the kitchen and dining area now offers a clean, seamless flow throughout the open-plan area. This design choice eliminates the separation of differing flooring styles needed for wet areas (kitchens), creating a unified and beautiful space.

Light-Filled Spaces Contrasted with Darker Spaces

The home's upper level is highly sunlight throughout the day, making the dining and living areas feel open and airy as you sit to enjoy the stunning harbour views. Downstairs, the light changes as there are fewer windows and the atmosphere is more intimate. 

As the light levels differ throughout this home, choosing high-quality laminate flooring was essential for durability in sunlit areas and scratch and dent resistance for high traffic areas, which was ideal for the entranceway and rumpus room, which houses the heavy pool table.
