As in acid etched, stained and scored concrete floors. Thinking about pulling up the vinyl (whatever) stuff in the kitchen and the carpet in our bedroom and doing this. Looks like a good DIY project and a lot cheaper than hardwood floors. I've seen it in some new houses and if done right it can look REALLY good. Kind of a marble appearance almost.

This is what I have in mind:

A possibility, might be easier due to fewer cuts in scoring?:
