Not all materials are equally suitable for kitchen finishing – unless, of course, you are not planning on doing any more renovations in the near future.
According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , when choosing finishing materials for this room, you should take into account its features - those that do not tolerate temperature fluctuations, are not able to come into contact with water and are difficult to maintain are unlikely to suit you.
Why did the experts not like the plastic panels? Let's try to figure it out together.
Kitchen and plastic are not the best combination, as this material can melt when exposed to high temperatures and begin to release toxic substances.
Also, because of the plastic, the air exchange in the room may be disrupted, since the panel will prevent the wall from “breathing”, and if moisture gets there, there is a high probability of mold appearing and growing.
Therefore, it is better not to save money and choose higher quality materials that have proven themselves well in kitchen interiors.
For example, you can use paint to decorate the walls, and universal tiles, artificial or natural stone to decorate the apron.
Wood will also fit perfectly into the kitchen interior. Due to the fact that it is a natural material, it will not interfere with air exchange. However, there is a drawback - due to the fact that wood does not tolerate humidity and high temperatures, it should be used carefully and in moderation.
