Hello fellow home builders,
We are facing the big question of which flooring to choose for our living room, as well as for the bedroom and children’s rooms.
We have underfloor heating throughout, so that already rules out parquet and cork.
We don’t want a fully tiled floor either, since we already have tiles in the entrance area, kitchen, and bathrooms.
Vinyl is completely synthetic and apparently full of plasticizers. We’re running out of ideas—do you have any suggestions?
This is mainly about the dining and living rooms, bedrooms, and children's rooms.
I’m very happy to receive your suggestions and experiences.

EveundGerd10 Feb 2015 00:36Our flooring plan is as follows: tiles in the bathrooms, ground floor hallway, and utility room; vinyl design flooring in the open kitchen/living area from Classen; carpet in the bedrooms and upper floor hallway. Of course, it’s a matter of personal preference.
We had laminate flooring for many years in all kinds of variations. Only those who have seen the dust bunnies scurry know that even anti-static laminate requires daily vacuuming. In that case, carpet makes sense—it’s warmer and more comfortable underfoot.

...easy to install like laminate but with a body-warm surface (for example, when you lie on it, it absorbs your body heat)...I don’t mean to be pedantic, but I’ll say it anyway.
If a material absorbs heat from the body when touched, it does not feel warm; on the contrary, it actually draws heat away from the body.
