Hello everyone,
My site manager called me yesterday regarding the basement, and the topic of the flooring on the ground floor came up again. He suggested that we might want to reconsider mixing both types of flooring, mainly because of the feeling of coldness but also for future renovations, especially in the living area.
We originally planned to have wood-look tiles throughout the entire ground floor. Everything has already been selected. In the photo, the tile is shown at the bottom, and the laminate is placed on top.
Now I have come up with the following idea. See the picture.
- Yellow is laminate
- Green is tile
- Blue is the island
And yes, I have ordered the kitchen exactly as planned :-p
What is your opinion on this mixed approach?

Anything but vinyl. The texture is absolutely unpleasant. Especially barefoot, it just doesn’t feel nice (sticky sensation).
There are also parquet, laminate, and tile options in similar thicknesses. With vinyl, make sure it has a comparable thickness. This way, you can later change the flooring without having to adjust door frames and transitions.
Instead of oiled parquet, consider matte lacquered wood flooring. It looks similar but is more affordable and significantly more durable.

I also had a sticky sample and didn’t choose it because of that property.There are many different types of vinyl or "luxury vinyl flooring," ranging from sticky to pleasant, to hard/smooth—so basically the complete opposite of sticky. Nowadays, there are even self-adhesive options with Blue Angel certification.
The characteristics are initially quite convincing, in my opinion, but of course, it is plastic. Some types have more plastic content, others less.
