[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]There needs to be a new, revolutionary, but luxe solution for kitchen floors (like the new finishes for appliances they are just starting to dabble into)[/quote]

Marmoleum---which is a composite of linoleum and cork.  [/quote]

Agreed, but spring for sheet Marmoleum and a specialized installer rather than the "click" planks. We used click and love our kitchen, but some of the seams are just slightly visible, and when we had a tiny leak from under the sink the nearby seam puffed up. Now that the leak is fixed the seam is back to normal/invisible, but a continuous sheet would have been a lot safer in retrospect.

Also, I know there's a collection of DCUM Marmoleum haters who will show up soon. Definitely a more modern/[b]Euro look[/b] than wood, so depends on the rest of your kitchen and house.[/quote]

Euro look? I'm from Europe, and I have never seen it. Everyone has tile or wood.[/quote]

I'm the first pp looking for the new solution. I googled sheet marmoleum and got this gorgeous picture. It's from gardenweb and they said they cut the tiles out of a sheet (boo) so I think that defeats the purpose of springing for the sheet, but it is certainly gorgeous and reminds me of homes I saw when I lived in France. I'm sold.

In France, they would do this in tile though. Linoleum would be the fake version.[/quote]
