When choosing tiles for finishing the interior of the apartment or house, you need to take into account a lot of factors. The first and most important for any housewife is color and texture. The color should be combined with the rest of the interior elements, and the texture does not change the structure of space in the negative side. For example, small tiles can reduce visually a room, elongated borders on the sides and longitudinal patterns make a room stretched, and a large pattern on the floor will distract attention from furniture. If it is precisely such goals that are pursued, then it is good, and if it was not originally planned? That’s why it is necessary to understand what effect I want to get from ceramic tiles. Small -sized apartments love light tones on the walls. Porcelanosa ceramic tiles can visually expand the space due to the wide color scheme, which is offered by the famous Spanish manufacturer. It must be remembered that a lot depends on the type of lighting. Bright green color, delighting with summer colors, can acquire an unpleasant dark shade under the yellow light of the lamp, and the blue azure will look green.
At the same time, any pollution is much less noticeable on dark surfaces. Fap Ceramiche ceramic tiles are well suited for rooms that are excessive pollution (for example, a fireplace room). True, scratches stand out more on a black background, so it is undesirable to walk in heels on it and such a surface cannot be cleaned with a brush with hard bristles.
If when choosing tiles to be guided by fashion trends, it must be borne in mind that tile fashion, like any other, has the ability to change. And that which is in high demand today, probably in ten years, will not produce the same effect. And the tile, as a rule, is placed for a long time. Floristic motives that were popular in the eighties are not at all quoted today. But this does not mean that it is impossible to choose an unlucking pattern. There are those that are always beautiful and attractive – classic plain, plus a mosaic, a photopano, which will always seem exquisite and unusual. Geometric drawings are now becoming fashionable, and most likely they will be in the wake of popularity for a long time. The second theme, which will not be out of place for a long time – imitation of natural materials: marble, granite, limestone, stone. Such a coloring will never get tired and will not resemble not arabesques or patterns, but fleeting shadows on the wall.
Another type of tile that today is in particular demand is ceramic granite. This is a mixture of two types of high -quality clays with the addition of natural coloring pigments, quartz and field spar. The mixture is pressed under very high pressure, so the result exceeds the strength of any type of tile. Italon porcelain tile can be placed on the floor in rooms with the highest cross -country ability, where the floor has to withstand high weight and pressure mass. Even in the production of porcelain tiles, it repeats the path of birth of natural stone. At the same time, despite low porosity and high reliability, it costs much cheaper than natural natural stone. Due to the almost complete absence of bubbles on the surface, it has a low water absorption, so porcelain tile is also used in external work in any climate zone. It is resistant to abrasion and to the influence of an aggressive environment, does not burn out in the sun, does not change color over time. Even the premises and floors around the house in the northern latitudes are finished with porcelain. Water does not penetrate it, and, therefore, with a sharp cooling, nothing can break its integrity from the inside. Aggressive components do not act on it. Even if it will sprinkle it all winter with salt against sliding, nothing will happen to the coating, it will not lose its original color and will not crack. The only condition: before laying out a porcelain track, it is advisable to first put concrete and thoroughly level it. Porcelain stoneware is also unpretentious in the kitchen. You can wash it with anything. If a heavy object is dropped on it, even a metal one, it will not break and does not crumble (it is such a result that is sometimes possible in the case of less durable tiles).
