Patterned floors make a bold statement but may quickly go out of style.
Tiles can be expensive to replace.
alexandre zveiger/ShutterstockInterior designer Kelly Taylor, owner of Kelly Taylor Interior Design, told Business Insider that kitchen floors aren't ideal for incorporating detailed patterns, such as checkered flooring.
If you want a pattern on the floor, change up the wood to a herringbone, or choose a stone with a tone-on-tone pattern, like a water-jet mosaic," Taylor said.
Bold flooring patterns can be costly to replace when they go out of style.
