Retro Rewind: Trends Making a Comeback

The 70s are back!

Earthy tones and vintage vibes are making a comeback for modern homes where nostalgia meets practicality. Echo your favorite era with wearable styles that feel fresh for the modern day.

Warm neutrals, textured materials, and curved shapes interspersed with pops of color are essential to retro flair. If you’re picturing shag rugs and vinyl tile, don’t feel trapped in the past. Engineered Floors’ tech-savvy craftsmanship can help bring the balance you want and need.

One of the most iconic elements of 70s inspired flooring trends is the use of earthy colors and natural textures. Olive greens, mustard yellows, and burnt oranges, along with rich patterns like checkerboards and terrazzo all capture the vintage spirit of the 70s.

How Engineered Floors Updates the 70s Look

Smart design is a leading philosophy for Engineered Floors, using durable materials that measure up to the performance expectations of homeowners:

  • Divine PureGrain HighDef: Lighter natural colors pair with wood-like graining for impressive 70s warmth.
  • EIR Texture & Durable Construction: For realistic texture, a thick wear layer, waterproof features, and click-lock installation, the Preference R018 LVP plank (9”X60”), is a reliable choice with a nod to true retro style.

Minimalism has ruled for years, but this vintage revival speaks to a craving for personality – nostalgia with all the modern conveniences. Enjoy a foundation that remains timeless while also handling everything your busy life dishes out.
