Wide plank hardwood flooring dominates current Noyack installations, with planks 5-7 inches wide creating clean, expansive looks perfect for open-concept designs. Matte and low-gloss finishes are replacing high-gloss options, providing more natural appearance while better hiding minor scratches and dust.Color trends favor warm, natural tones over the gray-washed looks of previous years. Rich browns, honey tones, and natural oak finishes complement both traditional Hamptons style and modern coastal interiors. Wire-brushed and hand-scraped textures add character while providing practical benefits—surface texture helps mask normal wear patterns that develop over time.
