A studio is a room or space for creative work, and it can be a lovely thing to have one of your own. Whatever you use, the important thing is that it performs the job of protecting your floor and keeping your space clean, while making the space appealing to work in. An artist or painter’s studio is rarely a pristine environment. Splatters and spills happen, so sturdy flooring that resists some stains is the best choice. Choose flooring that allows regular cleaning as well as spot cleaning without excessive damage. Not every flooring is your perfect solution; let’s see what are the best product solutions we can offer when considering flooring for an art studio.

The floor of an art studio is ideally suited for sheet vinyl flooring.
