Choose by design stylegạch ốp tường

White’ is a neutral tone that we associate with simplicity, cleanliness, and minimalist chic. An all-white or mostly white colour scheme is a versatile approach to create rooms with modern or classic looks.

Choose tiles according to the area of the house

It is important to consider the size of the room before selecting wall tiles. Large-sized tiles make a room appear larger and airier. Using floor tiles on the walls too may make the design and room look more cohesive, but remember that wall tiles cannot be used for the flooring. Light coloured tiles make a small room look bigger. If you have bigger sized rooms, then you will definitely have more colour options to choose from.

Moreover, when you determine the area of the house, the area of the wall that needs to be covered, you will calculate the number of tiles to buy, avoid buying too much or not enough that may causes waste or shortage of tiles

Choose wall tiles based on the color of the house

The colour of your wall tile depends on your personal choice, but some pointers may help you decide. Using a light coloured tile on the wall will give a soothing feel. Make sure that the colour of the wall tiles should complement that of the cupboard. Gloss finishes with light coloured tiles are suitable for dark spaces as they reflect more light..gạch ốp tường 2

Consider the general feel you want to achieve in the room you are tiling – serene and relaxing or moody and atmospheric? Unless you have a feature area such as a splashback, tiles aren’t normally the focus of a room, but they can complement other design features of a room

Choose wall tiles based on material

The third factor we want to share with you is the material, it greatly affects the beauty as well as the design style of the room. Currently, on the market there are many types of wall tiles with different materials:

  • Ceramic tiles come in a huge range of sizes – from the typical small wall tile size upwards – and colours, with patterns as well as plain, and can be glossy, matt or have other finishes. This can provide a budget-friendly way to dress kitchen and bathroom walls, either will create an effective and beautiful wall covering and be easy to care for.
  • Porcelain tiles also offer different formats, colours, patterns, and a variety of finishes. Both ceramic and porcelain can replicate the look of stone tiles, like marble, or even have the appearance of wood. Porcelain tiles are denser than ceramic, and therefore less porous. Meaning they’re harder, therefore more durable and absorb less water. This makes them more suited to high footfall areas which will see heavy use
  • Cement tiles are made from a mixture of sand, cement, color pigment, and a marble powder that is poured into metal molds, backed by a dry concrete mixture, and then compressed under pressure. Cement tiles have high thermal mass, acting as excellent insulators for your family’s comfort and your home’s energy bills

Whether you add a stylish ceramic backsplash tile or install rugged granite tile, having this knowledge in your back pocket about the types of tile and the best uses for tile will give you a hand up on creating your own ideal interior.
