Top 5 rooms for decorative concrete floors

Interior trends come and go but concrete flooring endures. It holds the top spot on the cool list because it gives any space a hard-wearing, modern finish. But practical doesn’t have to mean boring. Dulux Avista can help you create an array of stunning looks for less in your home.

These are our favourite rooms where decorative concrete can create the perfect base.

1. Garage

Get a sleek and sturdy garage floor with products that make maintenance easy. Our Decorative Flakes can be applied with full or partial coverage. The photos below show the different looks you can achieve, even using the same flake blend. Many home owners choose partial flake coverage to recreate the look of terrazzo or composite stone for a more affordable price. 

Compared to plain concrete, a big advantage of using flakes or even a single colour epoxy floor is the seamless, low maintenance finish. Say hello to stain resistant and easy to clean floors in your garage!

2. Kitchen/dining/living area

The heart of the home, where we cook, entertain, create and relax, our kitchen/dining/living space sets the design tone for the rest of the house. These high traffic hubs need durable flooring that can handle the rigours of everyday life. Our premium range of Natural Stone Look Flakes are an ideal choice for open plan living.

 

3. Laundry

One of your home's hardest working rooms, your laundry needs a non-slip floor that can resist moisture, scuffs and spills. A durable seamless concrete floor ticks all the boxes, with an added bonus – no more tile grouting to scrub! Consider extending your open plan flooring choice into your laundry for consistency.

4. Home gym

If you have hard-wearing flooring inside your home, you can transform that spare room into a yoga or weight-lifting space. The home gym floor pictured below has been achieved with Dulux Avista Flake Flooring, starting with a White base followed by Made to Order Epoxy Resin Flakes and a top coat of Polyurethane Sealer.

 

5. Rumpus, pool room or play room

Whether you have toddlers or teenagers, you know that children bring serious wear and tear to every surface. Say goodbye to allergy-inducing carpets! Forget precious floors! If your children are lucky enough to have a rumpus, play room or pool room, you need a surface that will resist spills, scratches and sticky fingers. You could choose one of six neutral colours in our Waterbased Epoxy range or use decorative flakes to mimic the look of granite, terrazzo or composite stone.
