In the kitchen, bathroom and basement, we are using Vinyl Composition Tile (VCT) and the rest of the house will be hard wood flooring. I give all my thanks to my awesome friend Mindy for the ideas of VCT, after she did it in her house many many years ago we put it in our current home. In the Gym & Bath, and now all over 1214 Hillcrest! I LOVE IT! Thank you Mindy!~ Shown here in the kitchen is green & white installed on a 45 degree.
