Maximalist flooring ideas for 2025

Maximalist interior design is a bold and expressive style that layers vibrant colours, patterns and textures to create a visually rich space.

Some industry experts suggest maximalist décor is making a comeback in 2025. Several flooring ideas add a maximalist design to a room.

Large geometric shape luxury vinyl tiles featuring large diamonds, hexagrams or trapezoids in bright colours add dramatic style to large rooms and hallways.

Mixing carpet tiles of different bold colours creates vibrant checkerboard patterns that add visual appeal. You may choose to experiment with unusual colour pairings such as mustard and teal or burgundy with pink. If you prefer hard floor surfaces, install vinyl tiles in several colours, but when doing this it’s wise to use varying shades of the same colour. For instance, create a blue floor that changes from cool sky blue to dark navy.

For those who like the natural look of wood flooring but still want a maximalist feel, try parquet flooring using different dark and light timbers laid in chevron, herringbone or other dramatic geometric patterns that look almost three dimensional.

A simple way to add maximalist design to an existing floor is to use bold colours and patterned rugs.

Maximalist design works better in large rooms. In smaller spaces, however, use more subdued flooring designs featuring medium-scale patterns or fewer bold colours. Solid colour furniture works best with maximalist flooring. Homeowners can add texture with velvet or leather furniture.
