Durable Flooring and Modern Wall Finishes

Looking for the best marble-finish tiles? The Simpolo Marmorica collection is a great choice. It offers luxurious marble designs in multiple sizes, from large 4x8 feet tiles for living rooms to smaller ones for other spaces. They also have different finishes for different areas, like shiny for bathroom walls and a strong surface for high-traffic floors.

Planning to install tiles? Always use tile adhesive instead of just cement, especially for large tiles, to prevent them from popping out later. Leave a minimum 2mm gap between tiles and fill it with grout for an even finish. After installation, clean the tiles with a proper tile cleaner and protect them with a cover to avoid permanent stains.

Stop using 2x2 feet tiles for your home; they create too many joints and make spaces look small. For living rooms, I recommend larger rectangular tiles like 2x4 feet or even 4x8 feet. In bathrooms, 2x4 feet tiles are a good choice as they minimize cutting. For small bedrooms, 2x4 feet is sufficient, but for larger ones, consider 4x6 feet tiles.

This is India's toughest tile surface, the Venitto series by Simpolo. It's scratch, stain, heat, and fire-resistant, making it perfect for kitchen countertops and high-traffic areas like offices and malls. It comes in various sizes and six beautiful terrazzo color options that are timeless and look incredibly good.

Here are three outdated choices you should replace when building a new home. Instead of black stone or granite for kitchen and wardrobe structures, use modern materials. Replace wooden or local aluminium windows with UPVC or system aluminium. And for your home's exterior, use texture paint or brick cladding instead of ACP or heavy printed tiles.

Here are three more things to replace in your new home. Ditch wooden door frames for granite or full-body tile frames that are moisture and termite-proof. Stop using small 2x2 square tiles and switch to larger rectangular tiles for a more modern look. And replace basic stainless steel railings with elegant glass or detailed MS railings.

Wooden wall panels are risky due to termites and moisture. A better alternative is designer tiles like Simpolo's Cliffstone series. They are non-porous, stain-resistant, and heat-resistant, so you can even use them on your home's exterior. They come in many colors and patterns, including matching engraved tiles that add a luxurious touch to any room.

Here is my guide to buying tiles. For a small family, normal vitrified tiles are fine, but for a large joint family, go for full-body tiles. Always use anti-skid tiles for bathrooms and balconies. Larger tiles make a room look more seamless, and it's best to avoid heavy patterns on the floor unless it's part of a specific design plan.

Want a concrete floor in your home? You can achieve this with micro-concreting. It provides a seamless, raw, and modern concrete texture, similar to what you see in high-end architectural homes. It's a unique, jointless flooring option with customizable colors and patterns, perfect for those who want a modern or industrial look.
