There are different types of eco-friendly flooring today. I liked the ones that you mentioned since they are aesthetically appealing and the materials are renewable. We tried bamboo tile flooring (tampa) when we renovated our living room. It was a good choice since it matched the asian theme of the house. For the bedroom, we used vinyl flooring (tampa) since that type is very durable.
ReplyDeleteThe other types that you mentioned are interesting. We will try that on our next renovation. Thanks!
