At Landmark Interiors, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly flooring styles evolve, and 2026 is gearing up to be an exciting, versatile year for interior trends. Homeowners are gravitating toward natural colors, soft textures, and materials that create warm, inviting spaces. From airy neutrals to rich earth tones and wide-plank visuals, the trends for the coming year embrace a balance of beauty, comfort, and everyday practicality. As Southern Living highlights, tactile flooring that feels natural and refined will be especially popular in 2026.1
As manufacturers of premium flooring solutions, we design our collections to reflect these shifts, so you can update your home with floors that feel current today and timeless for years to come.
Top Flooring Color Trends for 2026
Soft, Airy Neutrals
Lighter, more breathable tones are becoming essential in homeowners’ design palettes. Shades like pale oak, soft greys, and weathered beige create calming environments, making rooms feel open and balanced.
Nature-Derived Warm Tones
Warm, earthy hues continue to grow in popularity. Tones like honey, caramel, and warm clay support the organic, grounded aesthetic that more homeowners are seeking. In fact, the popular home decorating magazine, Veranda, emphasizes that warm wood tones are overtaking cooler grays as homeowners prioritize comfort and richness in flooring.2
Modern Charcoals & Deep Browns
For property owners who prefer dramatic contrast, deeper browns and charcoal tones continue to be in demand. These colors add sophistication and anchor brighter design elements.
The Textures Defining Flooring in 2026
Authentic Woodgrains
As interest in natural materials grows, so does the desire for flooring with authentic texture. At Landmark Interiors, our engineered hardwood lines feature genuine wood veneers with subtle, realistic grain variations. For rooms requiring added versatility, our luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and plank (LVP) offer highly detailed wood visuals that complement today’s organic-modern design style.
Matte & Low-Gloss Finishes
Matte finishes continue to be a defining element in 2026 flooring design. In fact, Martha Stewart predicts that understated matte surfaces will remain a top trend because they enhance a natural look while helping to disguise daily wear.3 We offer a range of low-gloss styles across our collections to provide options that feel refined without appearing overly polished.
Wide & Long Planks
Wide and long planks help make rooms feel more spacious and visually cohesive. Our LVT/LVP collections feature wide-plank formats that bring this clean, modern style to high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. For a more traditional wood floor aesthetic, our engineered hardwood lines offer generous plank sizes that complement open-concept homes.
Flooring Styles to Watch in 2026

Frequently Asked Questions
What flooring will be most popular in 2026?
In 2026, homeowners will gravitate toward flooring that feels natural, calming, and visually textured. Soft neutrals, warm organic tones, and wide-plank visuals will lead the way, opening up rooms and creating a balanced flow. Matte and satin finishes are particularly in demand, according to The Spruce, as they provide a more natural, practical surface that hides everyday scratches, dust, and dents better than high-gloss options, while also reducing slipperiness.4
