In the process of selecting a laminate flooring to create a room decor, many owners of houses and apartments make the same mistakes.. Therefore, this issue should be considered in more detail..
Experts do not recommend using wenge, American or Asian walnut, rosewood laminate coatings in sunny rooms. This is due to the fact that on the floor covering of a dark color in the presence of bright side sunlight, microparticles settling on it are clearly visible.
If you do not take this into account, you can get an untidy appearance of the floor covering for the entire service life..
Since the hallways are usually dark in most houses and apartments, it is better to make the floors from light-colored coverings. In this regard, oak, beech, birch laminate is best suited. But it is better to try to avoid wallpaper in light colors, and use wall decoration a few tones darker..
In small apartments, it is not recommended to make floor coverings from different types of laminate. If there is one cover decor in the kitchen, another in the bedroom, and a third in the living room, this will divide the living space into zones, which will visually reduce its area.
Do not forget how the interior doors will be combined with the laminate flooring. The latter should have a darker color than the floor covering, but also the color scheme and texture. That is, when choosing a cherry laminate, you need to purchase doors of the same texture, but more dark. It is better not to make laminate flooring and interior doors in the same color scheme, since both of these elements will be lost in the interior..
When choosing a milky or white laminate, do not go over the light tones in other finishes. The all-white interior promotes a sense of sterility, leading to discomfort and vulnerability. The same applies to the rest of the color schemes..
It should also take into account the optical capabilities of the laminate pattern. Long, narrow stripes on the floor in a narrow corridor will make it look like a bowling alley, and a square room will turn into a rectangular one. Accordingly, in order to visually expand the living space of the apartment, you need to lay the laminate in strips across the room..
