Need advise about choosing a floor for my living room
My home is country French and the living room and dining
room are divided by the entrance hall and staircase . The family room is connected to the entrance hall.There is hardwood throughout except for a tiled kitchen and the downstairs master bedroom is carpeted. The hardwood is in bad shape--scratched , worn, and faded. We need to either replace the floor or have it refinished. Need new carpet as well But the worst problem of all is that our MinPin puppies have completely ruined the living room floor and the rug . We were thinking that we need to put a a marble or slate floor in the living room . Would we need to put up glass doors or something to set that room apart so it won't look funny beside the hardwood ? Also , please give suggestions for wood floor finish and color. The colors in our home are warm tones. With brown, greens navy blue and rust. I look forward to any suggestions you could give.

If you can refinish your floors, great. I'd definitely check that out first. If you determine that refinishing is not possible, then I would select a medium toned brown wood, one that is not too red and not too yellow. Then it will be able to blend well with future wall color changes.
For the new flooring,Oak engineered flooring (length1200*width120*thickness15/wear3mm)or Oak solid flooring 18mm thickness with Random length could be OK,because it is not very longer,durable and timeless.Smooth surface and natural UV lacquer,it is brighter and warmer than your current floor.
About other things,such as if put the glass door to set room aparts,you may wait for further comments from others.
