The choice of materials on the wall to the bathroom is huge. Everything depends on our vision, style, space, and we want to give their wallets. The bathroom
is a place that is designed not only to wash, but should also fit in a
good mood. It is here that we have to relax, refresh and forget about
worries. And contribute to this nice and clean design. The design determines the appearance of the bathroom
floors and walls. And we can choose a range of materials. The times
when we placed only on the walls or ceramic tiles, thankfully long gone.
It is true that tile is still popular and fashionable, but the stepped
stone cladding, wall paper, textured plaster, glass and wood. Key to the
material chosen for the walls in the bathroom was
practical and resistant to moisture and the room we liked. For
traditionalists who can not bear to part with the plates is good news.
Contemporary ceramics is not like that a few or a dozen years. Modern
tiles imitate other materials such as wood paneling, stone. They have a
new, bold patterns and shapes - from the simple to the highly
distorted, with uneven edges. This gives interesting effects.
