Speaking to the Canadian Press, Genevieve Gorder, Candice Olsen and Vern Yip, who judge the work of new designers each week on HGTV’s “Design Star”, all said wooden floors are their preferred material, with Gorder describing it as “the one medium that is eternal.” “It’s been in interiors since the beginning of time and it’s sitting in our front yards,” she said. “There’s nothing else like it.” Despite this timelessness, all three added that wooden flooring was at the very forefront of good…
