Designing a tiny home can sometimes be very demanding as you have to make sure you choose the right material. Flooring on its own is a topic that needs serious brainstorming because the wrong choice can cause a lot of damage.

What is it, and Why Should You Care?

This makes it ideal for laundry rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens.

Its waterproof property allows you to use a wet mob without being afraid to cause damage. You can easily take care of this type of floor with a broom and a damp mop.
