Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) has quickly become one of the most sought-after flooring options on the market. Its durability, ease of maintenance, and stylish appearance make it a standout choice for both residential and commercial spaces.
At Marshall’s Tile, we work with clients every day to help them find the ideal luxury vinyl planks (LVP) that balance form and function. But when it comes to color and style, the decision-making process can feel overwhelming. That’s where our guidance makes all the difference.
Why Color and Style Matter in LVP
Choosing the right LVP isn’t just about finding something that looks good—it’s about selecting a style that enhances your space, supports your lifestyle, and elevates your overall design. The color and finish of your flooring impact how light reflects in the room, how large or cozy a space feels, and how your furnishings and decor will coordinate.
Whether you're renovating a cozy home office, updating a high-traffic commercial entryway, or reimagining a modern living room, your flooring choice helps set the tone. That’s why our team encourages clients to consider everything from lighting to layout when browsing our high-quality tile options.
Not sure whether LVP or tile is right for your space? We break down the pros and cons in LVP vs Tile Flooring: Discover the Best Choice for Your Home or Business.
Considering the Mood of the Room
Every room has its own personality, and the right flooring can help amplify or soften that mood. When helping clients select LVP, we take into account the natural light in the space, the color of the walls, and the overall aesthetic goals.
- Light Colors: These open up smaller rooms and make them feel airy and fresh. Think soft ash, white oak, or pale greige.
- Medium Tones: A versatile choice that balances light and warmth. These pair well with both traditional and modern interiors.
- Dark Shades: Perfect for creating a dramatic, grounded atmosphere. Deep browns, espresso, and charcoals add richness and contrast.
Our showrooms in Idaho Falls and Pocatello allow customers to see how different LVP colors look in natural and artificial lighting.

Matching LVP to Your Lifestyle
Flooring isn’t just a design element—it needs to stand up to everyday life. That’s why we always consider how the space will be used before recommending a particular LVP color or style.
- For Active Homes: Lighter tones with textured or distressed finishes can hide dust and scratches, making them great for households with kids or pets.
- For Sleek, Modern Interiors: Smooth, high-contrast planks in bold colors can complement minimalist decor and open layouts.
- For Commercial Spaces: Neutral tones with subtle patterns can provide durability and professionalism without looking too industrial.
No matter the space, we guide our clients to LVP options that strike the right balance between performance and style.

Playing with Texture and Grain Patterns
The texture and grain of your LVP can dramatically influence the final look. At Marshall’s Tile, we offer a variety of finishes that range from smooth and contemporary to rustic and hand-scraped.
- Wire-Brushed and Textured Finishes: Add depth and mask everyday wear.
- Smooth Planks: Create a clean, modern look for upscale interiors.
- Wide Planks with Bold Grain: These make a statement and are ideal for large, open spaces.
Choosing a finish that complements your existing furnishings or cabinetry ensures a cohesive design.
Coordinating with Walls, Cabinets, and Furniture
LVP doesn’t exist in a vacuum—it interacts with every other design element in your home or office. We help clients coordinate flooring with wall colors, cabinets, and furniture to create a balanced, intentional look.
- Warm Flooring with Cool Walls: Creates contrast and dimension.
- Neutral-on-Neutral Palettes: Offers a soothing, spa-like aesthetic.
- High-Contrast Combos: Adds visual interest and contemporary edge.
This type of design cohesion is where our tile experts shine. Our team provides tailored suggestions to ensure each space feels polished and thoughtfully designed.
Sampling and Visualizing Your Choice
Sometimes the best way to choose is to see the options in person. That’s why we invite customers to stop by and explore our supplies and product lines firsthand. Holding a sample up against your wall or cabinetry, or placing it where the natural light hits in the morning, can reveal how a color truly behaves in your space.
We also offer guidance on layout styles and installation patterns, from staggered boards to herringbone layouts. These choices can further influence how the color and texture of your LVP is perceived.
