Part III: What’s In a Beautiful Space?

What are some of the considerations that people put in place while styling their premises?

• Purpose of the room
• Size of the room
• Light
• Cost Effectiveness
• Ease of Maintenance
• Aesthetics – the use of colors and textures

What do you reckon that they could possibly do better?

Whilst cost is an important factor in any styling decision, it is equally important to ensure quality. With ceramic tiles it is vital to remember that you get what you pay for, and it is possible to get a much better locally produced quality for only a slight premium.

Getting the finishing touches right is another one of the important, yet overlooked, aspects of interior design. For example, it is more important to fit quality ceramic tiles using tile adhesive or grout rather than cement because the end result lasts longer and looks cleaner. All these finishing products are locally, and easily, available.
