    I love carpet but no shoes and vacuum daily.

    I've lived mostly in the sub-tropics and tropics so to avoid mold I've developed a love of tile too.

    Terrazzo is my favorite type of flooring. Beautiful craftsman. No grout. Can be cleaned to perfection.

      No cruises imho! They ruin the environment, serve as disease incubators, and people are always falling into the ocean and being left for dead!

      Living in Hawaii for almost twenty years made me loathe them.

      But to each her or his own. Jet planes aren't exactly good for the environment and I've spent almost a lifetime flying on them.

        The house in the OP is the pick of the litter in the neighborhood.

        It reminds me of a New England colonial although I don't know why.

          I like carpet, it's nice under the feet! The carpet in our bedrooms here was done really nicely, there must be a good pad under it as well, because it's very nice and cushiony. We stretch on the floor and Mr SK always says it's so comfortable, he could sleep there.

          OTOH, there's this:

          Which is not the kind of carpet I would like... 😄

          And light, warm colors. Can't wait for black, gray, and LVP floors to be banished to the dustbin of interior decorating.

          Same!

            I would like wall to wall wool carpet with no pile if I lived in a cold climate.

              LVP floors

              I love the look of real wood but for practical reasons I prefer LVP.

                Our floors are laminate made to look like wood. Any hard floor in this climate is good enough.

                  So you you may have heard the gleeful cries of hallelujah even as far away as the colonies when the last tack went in our carpets upstairs.
                  Here is probably the most boring video ever, mostly starring a beige carpet

                  Link to video

                  And a few photos
                  the landing was most difficult for floorboard repair, cutting both underlay and carpet for L shape, 5 doorways and for stairs

                  3rd bedroom

                  And finally two of our 1st bedroom finished, the last done as we had to move all our stuff so delayed it until the New Year.

                          @andyd that must have been so much work! Not like for just a square room! So are all your renovations done, or do you have another project going on?

                            Yes it was, 100sqm of carpet for 4 bedrooms & landing, with 5 new oak doors. It has however transformed our upstairs into a clean comfortable area; we're now rationalising furniture.

                            A few remaining things are major and require professionals & money, but there are quite a few small things for me to do.
                            Latest to do list... The sitting room carpet is beyond my limits (concrete floor, long join needed)

                              It all looks great and the light fixture with the flowered shade is fantastic!

                                The shades are a modern Tiffany imitation, 3 bulb.
