Appreciate advice new Kitchen/Dining Room - same FLOORING or zoned?

We are planning to knock through up to 1800mm hole in wall dividing kitchen and dining room to utilise the rarely used dining space. Want to be able to shut away mess when entertaining, hence desire for doors, room divider. Doors will be open most of time.

Will it spoil the open look/flow if I go for tiled floor in kitchen area and wood in dining?

Room sizes are approx 3m x3m60 wide each . The pic below will include a table in the foreground.

Thoughts appreciated

    Hi. It can work well having different toning floors to zone areas in an open plan space however as you will have the doors I think I'd go for one floor TBH. Have you considered wood effect porcelain? There are some good ones around and if the grout thickness and colour is right they can look great. Alternatively consider a luxury vinyl tile such as karndean or amtico

      The floor is just an artists impression by the kitchen designer so sorry can't give you brand name !

      Hi Georgiegirl ! I agree with Minnie -
      I think if you keep to similar colour tones of tile to the wood, that's key to keeping a cohesive look !

      Hi there,

      We find that continuity is a popular option to really give the sense of expanse. If you would like to create an open, spacious feel when the doors are open, this could be a good option.

      Here's an example from one of our projects...

      A mix of materials can always work providing you find two complimentary tones and textures. Here's an example...

      Although one floor throughout would provide you with more versatility; you could have the sense of an open plan kitchen/diner when the doors are open. Two different floors would give more of a definite separation.

      If you would like to discuss any materials with us we would be happy to help. We have a wide range of natural stones and porcelains.

      Best of luck with your project!

      Good morning Georgie and thanks for posting your dilemma. You're not the first renovator to have asked this question and won't be the last. You want the warmth and homeliness and texture of wood in the dining room but the practicality of tile in the kitchen - hard when the two spaces are one!

      I recommend that you go for a porcelain tile that is wood-identical. It fools everybody and is eminently practical. I would suggest that you consider a rug in the dining room (if you have tinies buy a hosable one from Dash & Albert ) to add texture and softness and then everybody is happy. Look at this one from Mandarin Stone, (Baltic Fir) but plenty of others are available. If you need any other help, just ask. I am an interior designer specialising in total house renovations and new builds for private clients and developers.

      Kind regards, Sarah

      Hi there

      I would recommend luxury vinyl flooring as this comes in a variety of wood and stone effects. Using the same product, albeit different designs also means you won't have any height difference e.g. the thickness of wood planks versus the thickness of ceramic tiles. If you mix products you will have a height difference and would need to manage this with door plates, typically ramps and I think this would spoil the open plan desire.

      We love the collections from Harvey Maria http://www.harveymaria.com/ which combine stone and wood. You can use the patterned inlays to highlight the the two separate areas and then pull them together with the wood affect planks.

      Hope this helps or gives you some ideas.

      Thanks

      Alistair
