Painted Floors

We bought this 140-year old farm house. The upstairs wood floors were all painted when we took the place on. After going through several ideas (some more successful than others), this light soft beige/green seemed the direction to go it. The painted floor has given the space a charming light quality that we wouldn’t have gotten if we had stripped and stained them. We are still going room by room to get the colors right. A painted floor can add a spark of excitement underfoot, it can be a great deep-colored anchor or when painted a light color can lift up a room as though you’re walking on clouds. What kind of feeling do you want to be walking into?
