Painted Floor Patterns

As exciting as s painted floor based on a simple check is, there are many patterns possible and some are fairly simple to execute by a professional.

One thing that a professional does is the math. This may sound simple and look easy but is is not. I think that this and my anxiety to have things done quickly are the primary reasons i would not attempt these more complicated patterns.  Should you try, be sure to graph it all out first.

This is the floor that got me involved. It was part of a design house sponsored by The Boston Design Center on site several years ago. This floor was the basis of a dining room by Gary McBournie ... I had to kneel down and touch it to be sure what it was:

Yes! This is a painted floor. It is dark brown ( very glossy ) and white and BEAUTIFUL. This was when I first called the artist and she has since done many floors for me. Because this is two colors, it is not a truly complicated floor - but it is fabulous. 

I love this very simple and effective floor.

Three colors ...

Very effective use of one color. Hope this inspires!
