How to choose interior materials?

What criteria should you use to decide on interior materials?
It is easy to choose a product based on its cheapness and appearance alone.
However, since walls occupy a large area of the interior, it is important to carefully select materials from various perspectives.
Therefore, in this article, we have summarized the merits and demerits of each of the typical interior materials!
We hope this helps you choose the right interior material.

Paint finish

There is also the option of painting finishes on site over gypsum board or base material.

Advantages of paint finishes

■Choice of paint

Water-based paints used for interior decoration are available in a wide variety of colors from all manufacturers.
The pleasure of choosing from a wide range of colors is one of their charms.
In addition, the finish with a sense of materiality unique to paint is an attraction not found in vinyl cloth.

Disadvantages of paint finishes

■Cracks are likely to occur.

Concrete shrinks over time, so it is vulnerable to cracking as time goes on.
Painted finishes will follow the cracks in the concrete and crack as they are.

■Difficult to remove dirt

It is also important to note that painted walls are prone to stains that are difficult to remove.
Painted walls tend to be difficult to remove stains such as hand stains, water stains, and oil stains.

■Low durability

Vinyl cloth is not very durable and has the weakness of tearing easily.
In addition, plasticizers are added to soften the vinyl.
This plasticizer hardens in a few years, leading to peeling and discoloration after a few years.

■Concern about comfort and safety

Vinyl cloth has almost no air permeability, so it is prone to condensation and mold.
It also contains plasticizers and stabilizers, which can cause sick building syndrome.
There are concerns about the effects on health.

You can find anything from general white wallpaper to wood grain and geometric patterns.
