More recently, it was difficult to imagine the design of the bathroom with any other material than tiles. It was, perhaps, the only decoration that is not afraid of moisture and perfectly decorates the general appearance of the room. Technology, as you know, does not stand still. Therefore, today, in addition to traditional tiles, many alternative methods and materials suitable for decorating a room with high humidity have been created. Consider which materials are an excellent substitute for tiles and have no less high resistance to water.
Despite the fact that tile is recognized as one of the best materials, in recent years there has been a progressive trend of abandoning this method of decoration. First of all, this is due to the complexity of the process of laying tiles.
The first place among waterproof materials is occupied by plastic panels. They can not only meet high requirements, but also perfectly decorate the appearance of the room. Plastic plates are easy to install, have a huge selection, do not require maintenance and are characterized by long-term service. If we discard the only drawback of weak strength, then the material could easily earn the status of ideal.
Less popular in the measure of high prices is the way to decorate a room with glass and mirror slabs. As a rule, tinted glasses are used, to enhance the attractiveness of which various holographic images are often applied.
Glass is considered to be a more expensive material from the class of glass plates. It is presented in the form of a glass coating of two or more layers in combination with a decorative layer. The general view is perceived as a heterogeneous surface. A combination of glass and natural stone is considered quite successful. The combination of light shades of marble with golden or silver glass will give the room a feeling of extraordinary high cost.
The use of natural stone in any room gives it high environmental friendliness. Walls not only repel moisture, but also allow air to pass through.
The classic tile, used for more than a dozen years, is gradually losing ground to more recent analogues. The complexity of installation plays an important role in this trend. Along with the tiles are materials such as plastic, glass and stone. Also, the use of water-repellent paints or decorative plaster is considered to be an equally common way of wall decoration.
