2026 Floor Trends: Large-Format Tile or Wide-Plank Wood Floor

  • Post category:Hardwood
A bright living room with a gray couch and wide-plank wood floor – a 2026 floor trend.

A trending design philosophy is the fewer seams, the better. Well in 2026, large-format tile or wide-plank wood floor is the go-to choice for creating a clean, expansive look!

Large-format tile refers to any tile that’s more than 15″ while wide-plank wood measures 3″-4″ or more.

Both floor types are also available as luxury vinyl, with the added benefit of being water, mold, mildew, stain, and slip-resistant.

By embracing this elegant floor trend, you choose:

  • Fewer seams to create a more expansive, impactful appearance
  • Fewer grout lines for easier cleaning
  • The illusion of a larger, more open space
  • Increased visual interest by showcasing more of the wood’s natural grain pattern and knots
  • Enhanced durability; fewer seams also means reduced risk of cupping, gapping, or warping
  • Easier installation
  • Improved home value

Unlike other floor trends, wide-plank stays in style. Turn your bathroom into a luxurious spa. Elevate open-concept floor plans. Contact the flooring experts at David Tiftickjian & Sons to get started on your next flooring project.
