Bungalow floors and more: The standard for formal rooms public and private, wood floors suggest durability even as they convey understated beauty and depth. Slate and limestone (and now stained concrete floors) create drama in a foyer or bath. For practical durability and virtually limitless color choices, you can’t beat a resilient floor in the kitchen or family room. For Arts & Crafts homes built at the end of the Victorian period and into the 20th century, all of these alternatives are appropriate.
