If you need evidence of this trend, just take a look at the amazing winning entries from this year’s Wood Floor of the Year contest that appear in this issue of this magazine.

Consumers are spending their money more conservatively these days, and when they do spend it, the items they are purchasing are more conservative, as well. These items range from the cars they drive to the clothes they wear, but include items for their household, too—appliances, furniture, décor items, lighting and even their fl ooring choic- es.
