The Visualizer is Not a Replacement for Floor Samples
Visualizers do a great job of simulating what specific spaces will look like with cork flooring and/or wall coverings. However, visualizers by nature are approximate representations that cannot be not guaranteed as exact.
Online, colors vary from device to device based on display settings. In real life, colors and shades appear differently based on the room/space, the time of day, and the weather. As such, WECORK always recommends getting samples before ordering. Conveniently, links for ordering samples are incorporated into the visualizer to make the process quick and easy!
For the greatest accuracy, view physical samples in the rooms where they will be installed, at different times and on different days.
How Homeowners Use the Flooring Visualizer
Start by taking pictures of the rooms in your house on your phone or tablet, then upload them into the visualizer. If you don’t have a picture of your own room, simply select one of our stock images to see WECORK floors in.
This is where the fun begins! See the possibilities unfold as you switch between floors and rotate them to your liking. You can also click the compare option to show two floors patterns side-by-side. Sliding the middle bar to the left and right as seen below dynamically changes which portion of the room each floors displays in.
If desired, you can also select one or more of the walls in your room and add cork wall coverings. For example, you could select one of the walls in your kitchen or office and add cork wall coverings there to create an attractive and unique backsplash or accent wall.
Once you have a design(s) that you like, save and share your visualizations. If meeting with a flooring dealer or designer, share your visualized images with them before meeting. If may be helpful do some additional visualizations when together on a phone or tablet.
