6 Classic Decoration Materials That Will Never Be Outdated
Home decoration is to use different decoration plans and make reasonable use of decoration materials. Though the decoration style changes very quickly, some classic decoration materials are still popular. The following 6 classic decoration materials introduced will not be outdated in the next ten years. Do you know what they are?
Latex Paint
Latex paint is a very classic home decoration material and has been used in home decoration for decades. In fact, this also proves the advantages of latex paint from another aspect. Latex paint is also a good choice for decorating walls and roofs. All in all, using latex paint for home decoration is basically no mistake and will become a classic.
Selection suggestions:
• Choose the right color of latex paint. The color of latex paint varies greatly, for instance, currently popular colors include apricot gray, coast light, etc., which are all very good.
• Choose high-quality latex paint. Try to choose well-known brands of latex paint. But there is no need to choose those expensive imported brands, which will cost much more money.
Quartz Countertop
When we decorate, we almost always need to choose a kitchen countertop. I believe everyone has seen kitchen countertops made of various materials. The materials of kitchen countertops have roughly experienced quartz stone, marble, stainless steel, solid wood, slate, etc. The materials of these different kitchen countertops have led the trend for a period of time, but one material that has ended up being classic is quartz.
Selection suggestions:
• For quartz stone countertops, it is recommended that you choose quartz stone with small particles and high density. This type of quartz stone countertop has relatively good hardness and is not easy to stain.
• For quartz stone countertops, it is recommended that you choose thicker ones. For example, the more common quartz stone countertop is 1.5 cm, 1.8 cm, 2.0 cm, and 2.2 cm. It’s better to choose at least 1.8 cm.
Aluminum Gusset Ceiling
Kitchen and bathroom suspended ceilings come in various materials. Choose wisely! Wrong kitchen ceiling material can lead to regret later. Common options include PVC board, aluminum gusset, gypsum board, and honeycomb large board ceilings. For easy use and affordability, aluminum gusset ceilings are a classic choice. Integrated ceilings and honeycomb panel ceilings are essentially upgraded versions of aluminum gusset ceilings.
Selection suggestions:
• For the kitchens and bathrooms of most families, it is recommended to choose 300×600 mm aluminum gusset ceilings. The thickness of aluminum gusset plate should be as thick as possible. A single aluminum gusset plate that does not deform when held in the hand will be more durable.
• If you have a sufficient budget and want to pursue better decoration effects, consider a honeycomb large panel ceiling that is very popular currently. The effect is better but the price will be higher.
800×800mm Floor Tiles
Laying ceramic tiles on the home floor is and will always be popular. But there is a problem involved here, which is the size of the tiles we choose. While popular options include 600×1200 mm, 800×800 mm, and 750×1500 mm sizes, some may have limitations. For consistent floor tiling, consider 800×800 mm tiles as a versatile and functional choice.
Selection suggestions:
• For apartments with a living room of less than 30 square meters and a relatively square living room, it is recommended that you first consider 800×800 mm floor tiles. The effect is good and the material utilization rate is high.
• For a living room of 40 to 50 square meters, and the living room is long and strip-shaped, you can consider floor tiles of 600×1200 mm or 750×1500 mm.
Ceramic Integrated Basin
The ceramic integrated basin has also become a classic. Currently, there are different types of washbasins on the market, such as slate integrated basins, one-piece ceramic basins, ceramic integrated basins, ceramic split basins, etc. As for these different types of washbasins, some have been eliminated after experiencing real use experience. The ceramic integrated basin is currently relatively classic and you can give it a priority.
Selection suggestions:
• For most families, the first choice for washbasins is stain-resistant, strong, and durable, so the ceramic integrated basin would be the first choice.
• For ceramic integrated basins, everyone must pay attention to the glaze layer on the ceramic surface. That is to say, the surface of the ceramic basin should be shiny and smooth, without rubbing your hands.
Solid Wood (Flooring, Furniture)
Solid wood materials can be said to have always been a classic material among home decoration materials. The only shortcoming of solid wood materials is that they are relatively expensive so many people may not be able to afford them. There are still many common solid wood materials in home decoration, including solid wood flooring, solid wood furniture, etc. Generally speaking, if we decorate our home and add more solid wood furniture, we will definitely not go wrong.
Selection suggestions:
• For cabinets at home, if conditions permit, buy solid wood cabinets. This type of cabinet can be used forever and will look more classy the more you use it.
• Before we buy any solid wood furniture, first make clear the type of wood used. Different wood types not only determine the effect of solid wood but also determine its quality.
Although decoration materials are constantly being updated, some classic decoration materials will always be popular. Therefore, when we decorate our homes, if we can make good use of these classic and popular materials, our homes will never be out of date.
