Given Malaysia’s climate, tiles are an evergreen favourite fixture among homeowners. It allows for a cooler indoors, besides creating a great visual appeal for your home.
Given its popularity, here are several tips on how the correct tile selection can greatly influence the spatial perception of smaller studio units. Here are a few useful tips to consider when selecting tiles for an apartment suite:
Colour it right
Always bear in mind that light hues are great at making spaces larger and airier. This is because they reflect light which enhances the sense of space. Pick a shade that will go well with the rest of the room fittings, not just the furniture but also the blinds and curtains. Either that or play safe and just opt for a neutral white. Even then there are a multitude of choices.
Size Matters
Choosing large tiles can make a space look infinitely larger by having fewer grout lines. Big tiles also provide a more unified look across the wall and floor space, expanding the room visually. Aligned with a simple pattern, it can transform a room, giving it a totally different vibe.
Touch of texture
This is very much down to individual preference. A glossy finish can reflect light, adding depth and openness to your room, while matte tiles offer a subtle, soothing elegance. Will the space have a lot of items, or will there be plenty of open floor and wall spaces? Again, choose with the furnishings in mind.
