In addition to giving the feeling of spaciousness, good choices also help enhance the property.
Despite the small footage, compact apartments can become very cozy and bright. But for this it is necessary to make decisive and well-planned choices. Integration is usually one of the most sought after solutions and, to improve it, it is essential to get the right coatings.
“A well-chosen coating can help small apartments feel spacious, as well as highlight a special corner,” says Christie Schulka, Marketing Manager of Roca Brasil Cerámica. According to the expert, the choice of coating can affect the whole atmosphere of the apartment. Then she reveals 4 important tips:
1. A coverage for the whole property
“The main advice is to choose the same coating on the entire floor of the apartment, giving a feeling of visual unity “, he explains. In these cases, the important thing is to opt for lines that have multiple finishes, such as glossy or non-slip, for example. In some cases it is also possible to opt for continuity between floor and wall, without baseboards.
2. Large formats are a good option
Large format wall tiles are also a great choice as they have fewer joints between pieces, creating a fluid continuity in application. In addition, they ensure even easier cleaning and maintenance.
3. Pay attention to colors
In addition to size, colors should also be chosen well when it comes to furnishing small spaces. “Small apartments require light and neutral tones, because they reflect light and are able to illuminate the whole environment. These colors also help in the feeling of spaciousness,” says Christie.
Wagering on stoneware tiles that evoke concrete or burnt concrete is also a great option for those who appreciate a more industrial decor. “Woody porcelain, in turn, brings warmth and, despite all the technology in its production, can be applied in kitchens and bathrooms without worry,” Christie points out.
4. Layout makes a difference
Finally, the application of the coating can make a difference even in small apartments. “When we apply the coverings vertically on a wall, we reinforce the feeling of an accentuated ceiling height. On the floor, however, porcelain applications that create diagonal or vertical lines are good tricks,” says Christie.
