Guide to choosing the best tiles for your home
The importance of paying the right attention to the choice of tiles for your home:
By now we know, when it comes to renovating your home, the walls and floors of your spaces are the first things to give importance to. Their contribution to the design of the house is fundamental and their role can radically change the perception of the size of the room and beyond.
A light color significantly expands the feeling of space in the internal environment, a darker shade, in addition to taking away the brightness of objects, tends to make the rooms smaller and more compact, making those very large rooms less dispersive and cold.
Not only is color an important element to consider when talking about coverings and tiles, but also the material they are made of. In recent times, porcelain stoneware is the most popular material, it is a hard-paste ceramic that allows many possibilities for customization. Among the most famous brands for its sale we have Marazzi and Mariner.
Another important element in the choice is the finish and the final effect. This element will give or take away heat from the room and will significantly change its perception.
Tile effects and finishes, their importance
For those who want to make the room more welcoming and give it warmth, Mariner wood-effect tiles are the ideal solution. While maintaining the cleaning and maintenance advantages of porcelain stoneware, thanks to the wood effect, they still manage to make an environment more welcoming. The Mariner wood effect tiles Tongass series 20X120 (acquaclick.com) are available in different colours, wood, light wood, dark wood, and bleached wood. The great possibility of customization makes the choice of tiles child's play.
Another much-loved Mariner tile is the Mariner wood-effect tile Planet series 20X120 (acquaclick.com) available in Smoked and Oak colours. Both proposals made can be combined with their skirting boards.
A completely different tile, for those aiming for a more industrial style, are the Marine cement effect tile Boston series 60x60 (acquaclick.com), the cement effect, available in different colours, gives the room great elegance while maintaining a strong tone .
A similar effect is achieved by stone effect tiles. Elegant and with a very strong optical effect.
For those who want to dare more, the decorative tiles are the right choice: Mariner Vintage 2 20X20 cementina decoration tile (acquaclick.com) and Mariner 900 cementina decoration tile 1 20X20 cementina decoration (acquaclick.com) are ideal for those who want a unique and stylish floor.
Tiles and wall coverings:
Another matter regarding the wall covering. It is now increasingly fashionable to play with colors and combine them to give different effects to the perception of spaces within rooms. In this case, the use of two tiles of the same type but with different colors is the right solution.
To remove the feeling of length from a room, it is recommended to use a more intensely colored tile on the back wall, while on the other walls use a lighter color.
Instead, to visually lengthen a room, when you have rooms that are too large and you want to give more depth, you have to think in the opposite way compared to the case reported above: use the more intensely colored tiles in the two side walls in order to balance the proportions.
Some very interesting decorative tiles are the Mariner Boston Soffioni 30x90 decorative tile (acquaclick.com) or the Mariner Boston Geomix 30x90 decorative tile (acquaclick.com).
All the decorative tiles in the Mariner line allow for extensive customization of environments, such as the bathroom, kitchen or living room. Thanks to the tile decorations, it is possible to create unique effects in your spaces.
On the Acquaclick website it is possible to view the entire line of tiles designed by Mariner, a pillar in the ceramic market since 1984.
