When arranging a kitchen, it is important to pay sufficient attention not only to the kitchen unit, but also to the floor.

According to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , it must meet three requirements:

  1. match the design,
  2. be strong,
  3. easy to clean.

In addition, owners of a house or apartment on the ground floor should ensure that the floor retains heat well: tiles are not the best option.

The problem is solved by installing a heated floor. Important: it should not be under the kitchen itself and household appliances placed on the floor.

In addition, the kitchen floor must be moisture resistant.

When choosing a material, make sure that it is not embossed, otherwise you will be exhausted trying to scrub off the grease that has clogged the embossing.

And finally, kitchen flooring needs to be strong, as plates, lids and other heavy objects often fall here.

Large-format porcelain stoneware meets all of the above requirements – when choosing this material, the number of joints will be minimal, it will not be difficult to clean the matte surface, it is shockproof and suitable for installing underfloor heating.
