The choice of Laminate vs Painted vs Veneer would be how you would be using your kitchen and sometimes personal preference as well. 1. Laminate finishing in your kitchen would allow you to have a great choice of colours from woodgrain, pastel, gloss, etc. Laminates are also more resilient to scratching and wear. 2. Spray paint finishing depends on the type of colour you choose, will give the cabinet a real nice feel especially in a matt type white finish. Spray painted finishes do have a con with chipping and scratches in the long run. 3. veneer is made out of natural wood and if you are someone who likes the natural and warm finishing of a natural looking wood finish, this would be a good choice. Although veneer has a high tendency for scratches and marking, so you would need to have special care with it.

Hi..something more on the rough side. . textured.. So its not slippery

Hi, A] Vitrified vs ceramic Ceramic tiles are porous and have a tendency to absorb water while vitrified tiles are impervious and water resistant. Ceramic tiles are usually used indoors and vitrified can be used indoors, outdoors as well as in heavy traffic commercial areas because of their resistance to wear and tear. Ceramic tiles are cheaper as compared to vitrified. Ceramic tiles are prone to cracking and breaking as they are essentially made of baked clay. Vitrified tiles have a very strong material strength and do not break that easily. B] Tiles with wooden patterns These are available both as vitrified and ceramic tiles. They come in actual plank sizes (165mm x 900mm) and also in tile sizes (2'x4') etc. Go for the actual plank size as they don't look fake (the pictures below illustrate). Here ceramic wins, since they provide better texture and feel as compared to vitrified. They require pigmented cement to fill the joints in order to give the seamless wooden look. Vitrified Tiles - regular tile size Ceramic Tiles - actual plank size Hope this answers your questions. All the best! Regards, RnD Atelier Nagpur

Hi Rahul, 1] Give spacers if : a] you are going for matte finished rustic tiles. b] you are using ceramic tiles. c] you have a large area to showcase the tiles so that even after using spacers the space visually retains its size. Tip: Spacers should always be given in proportion to the tile size. Since you have large sized tiles spacers of about 6-9mm would look good. 2] Avoid spacers if : a] you are going for Italian marble patterned tiles. b] you are going for glossy tiles. c] you have a small area for application of tiles as spacers segment it further and give an impression of a smaller space. Hope this helps. All the best! Regards, RnD Atelier Nagpur
