Finishing materials
Finishing is, despite appearances, not the last item on the list of things to think about when building or renovating a house, but the basis - the base and background for subsequent design decisions that determine the functionality of the space and the impression the interior will make on users.
Savings at every step
The right choice of solutions and finishing materials can reduce the subsequent operating costs of the house. For example, sunshades will protect the house from excessive heat in the summer, and in the winter will ensure that cool air does not enter the interior.
What you can't see at first glance....
At a fairly early stage of planning, you should also think about issues of often invisible but extremely important technical solutions, such as a potential elevator if the house is storied, electrical fixtures that will take care of comfort and safety in our home, the functional location of sockets and switches, or the selection of mood-creating lighting, tailored to the purpose of each space.
and what you can see right away
For many, the most enjoyable stage of the work is the selection of those finishing materials that can be seen at first glance - timeless floors, decorative ceramic tiles and porcelain stoneware, colorful paint on the walls and plaster on thefacades, decorative wall coverings that will build a unique interior climate or soundproofing acoustic panels, unusual ceilings that add variety to the space, and, if the house is one-story - eye-catching stairs and balustrades.
All these elements form the basis for the interiors of homes - our daily lives are played out against their backdrop, so it is worth ensuring that they are solid and durable, after all, they will serve us for years.
