Chevron Floors a la Million Dollar Decorators

Is anyone as obsessed with Million Dollar Decorators as me?  I often think that Bravo can do no wrong, as they have me hooked on numerous shows and this one is no exception.  This week's episode featured this redesigned office by Mary McDonald where the floor was at first a big issue of contention:

The homeowner really hated it at first when the room was a blank slate with only the chevron floors as the focal point.  But once the room was finished and all the furniture installed, she really warmed up to the look.  I happen to love chevron floors, especially in a bathroom:
My favorite!

    I'm not a fan of the black and white chevrons on a floor(kind of gives me a headache and makes me dizzy) but I love the more subtle grey marble of that bathroom and the wooden floor in the last pic!

    OMG - Kate, I'm addicted and I'm so sad MDD is only on once a week!!! Gotta love Mary knowing exactly what her clients like before they even have a clue... Love the chevron look and am wondering if it would work in a smallish bathroom.

    I never knew it, but it turns out I do! I prefer the versions with less contrast, like that gorgeous dining room in picture #4, but yes, I really like it! It gives a special touch to a room, something slightly quirky so that your elegant touches look polished but not stiff.
