For the kitchen we considered tile too "cold" and hard on the feet, so we selected a new type laminate which has a pattern very compatible with the hardwood. It is not "fake woodgrain" as are so many laminates. The result is that the surface is comfortably softer, but durable and resistant to liquid spills.
So you put in the engineered wood and laminate in the kitchen. Was it a laminate tile look? Or a wood look close to the wood? Thanks for your help.
