Today's level of technology development helps to realize any most daring idea. Lovers of innovation, as well as fans of the classic style, have a huge selection of a wide variety of coatings and materials designed for interior decoration.
If such a grand event as a renovation has happened in your life, the choice of flooring will require due attention. Beautiful floors are as important an interior detail as wallpaper, ceilings and textiles. Let's take a look at what the designers and technologists of the world's best manufacturers of materials for interior decoration came up with.
Linoleum
Synthetic roll coating is one of the most budget options. Its installation is simple. It requires a minimum of time and tools.
Today, in construction stores you can find linoleum for every taste. With it, you will get beautiful floors that will look the way you want. Linoleum can imitate rough boards, natural stone, clay, shell rock and many other textures. He possessesexcellent soundproofing properties. The material is easy to clean and lasts relatively long.
Parquet
Someone may scornfully state that herringbone type-setting boards have long outlived their usefulness. But the world's best creators fundamentally disagree with this belief. Designers from all over the world use parquet in their work. Of course, production, styling and care technologies have undergone many changes. This allows us to talk about the functionality, environmental friendliness and durability of parquet.
Among the variety on the market, there are many options. They differ from each other in design, quality and price. The classic herringbone is still in trend. But besides it, there are many other forms: hexagons, rectangles, complex typesetting ornaments. Dreaming of parquet? Get ready to fork out not only for the material, but also to pay for the services of the master. Yes, parquet is quite expensive. But this very beautiful floor will surely last for many years.
Laminate
One of the most popular coatings for city apartments and country houses is laminate. Its cost depends on the class: the higher it is, the higher the price. But do not rush to purchase the most expensive coverage. Today, even such categories of laminate are presented on the market, which are designed for halls, workshops, auditoriums with huge traffic. Of course, such a coating can be laid in an ordinary apartment. But does it make sense to overpay so much for material designed for much larger loads? Professionals say that the bestan option for the house is a laminate of 31-32 classes. With proper care and the absence of regular floods, your beautiful floors made of this material will last faithfully for 10-15 years.
Designers have developed not only a variety of textures that imitate natural wood. You can find completely unusual species. For example, the word "rustic" in the name often indicates that the surface will look like rough, beaten boards, reminiscent of an old hunting hut, the deck of a pirate ship or a fairy tale hut.
And someone prefers classic types, two- or three-strip, imitating noble wood.
Tile
If you are looking for a durable coating that is suitable even for rooms with increased traffic, pay attention to the tile. The price range for this cover is huge. It all depends on the manufacturer, size, design, thickness and some other factors.
To lay out the tiles beautifully, choose options with a frieze. Pay attention to unusual textures. The floor with mosaic inserts looks very elegant and expressive. Tile designs come in many different styles. Lovers of the classics will find geometric or floral ornaments that fold into an intricate pattern on the floor. Fans of natural textures will certainly appreciate tiles that look like rubble masonry or sea pebbles. And for special rooms, beautiful tiles on the floor, made in vintage style, can be suitable. According to invoicethe material is very pleasant to walk barefoot, besides, orthopedists assure that it is useful. But in care, it can be more difficult than smooth - sometimes you will have to brush it. But such a floor will not be slippery.
Natural wood
There are a huge number of options for finishing the floor with wood. A special board is made from it, which is mounted according to the same principle as the laminate. Cross cuts look very nice - colorful round fragments with annual rings. They are interesting to look at and pleasant to walk on.
To make such beautiful floors, you will need a lot of experience, tools, quality materials (lacquer, wax, impregnation), the best wood. If you are not confident in your abilities - do not risk it! Better turn to professionals. Then a wonderful wooden floor will turn out to be really beautiful and of high quality.
New technologies
3D floors are a novelty of recent years. There are several options for arranging such a coating. The simplest of them is ready-made vinyl-based pictures, similar to linoleum. You will be able to choose the necessary one, suitable in size to your room.
Painting the floor will cost more. But the artist will be able to take into account all your wishes.
