One of the doubts that usually arise when installing porcelain floors in an apartment or terrace is which finish to choose. Are glossy or matte porcelain floors better?
In this article we are going to explain the differences between both types of finish. You will also discover the different styles of porcelain flooring that you can buy for your bathroom, kitchen or home.
Both gloss and matte porcelain tiles are very attractive. Either option can be a good idea. It depends on the aesthetic touch you want to give to your decoration and what you would like to convey.
The matt porcelain tiles have a sober, elegant and warm air. That is, they convey a sense of serenity and calm, so the ideal is to use them in the spaces where we want to convey this feeling. For example, in a living room or bedroom it is usually better to opt for matt porcelain tiles for the floor.
Now, if what we want is to convey a sophisticated and luxurious air, glossy porcelain tiles may be the best option. As the name suggests, these are brighter and reflect light more significantly.
It is usually the most common option when choosing porcelain tiles for the kitchen or bathroom, where it seeks to convey maximum cleanliness and a feeling of spaciousness and modernity. However, depending on the decoration, matt porcelain tiles can also be used.
It should also be taken into account that glossy porcelain tiles have what is called a mirror effect. Although of course they do not reflect as much as a mirror, they do have a greater reflection than matte finishes.
It is also recommended to use glossy porcelain for public spaces, businesses and commercial spaces, since they generate a feeling of greater luxury and sophistication.
In addition to the finish of the materials of your tiles or porcelain, there are many other aesthetic designs. Each can have a different functionality and can be adapted to different styles of decoration.
For example, there are stone-effect porcelain floors, which give our space an air of distinction and at the same time rustic. There is also porcelain with a wood effect, which can be very good in environments where the wood color is the protagonist, since it is very natural.
