An Introduction To Interior Paintings Designs And Paints

This All About Interior Design information will guide you about the most appropriate options available in Interior Painting Designs, paints and colors, you should tutor yourself on the basics used in interior paints because the colors and paints used for interior are not the same used outside. The paints used to cover the exterior of the house have more resistant power against moisture and harsh climatic conditions.

The paints used outside have more concentration of pigments to prevent an early fading of the shine and they can withstand weathering effects for a longer period. Paints used inside are diverse in nature and colors suiting different forms of surfaces, so it very crucial to put the right paints on the appropriate surface for everlasting finish.

Interior Painting Designs and colors are selected on the basis of area and the function the paint is used for, as the options are many so both should complement each other. Paints rich in gloss and resin should be applied on surfaces where there are heavy movements like kitchen, passage ways, car parks and utility rooms. They become hard when dry and do not dress out easily.

Such paints look good because of giving shine and gloss and make the space look fabulous even in dark tones. Latex paints are best for use on stones, rocks and brick walls as they are water base paints and can smash up wood walls and iron works. These paints give a very fine result when used on walls already painted with heavy gloss paints.
For rustic and matte looks rubber paints can be used. They are very durable, easily cleaned and sustained. They are well-suited on bricks, stone and clay walls. For ceilings paints with low concentration of resin are used because ceilings are usually not touched and they do not undergo scratches.

Interior paintings designs and patterns are made on walls and ceilings by special texture paints. Texture paints are of two types, alkyd and latex paints. To give walls different textures paints with sand particles are sprayed so that it gives embossed textures to the walls. Wood is a difficult material to paint and suits with oil based paints like alkyd paints. Alkyd paints can be used to cover all types of wood surface and walls layered with primers.

Bathroom also needs special considerations and points to focus before painting and more important is the type you choose not the color. The inside of the bathroom has a high percentage of moisture and steam and provides home to many types of moulds and fungus. Therefore it is obvious to select the paint which is water repulsive and does allow the growth of moulds.

The most excellent types easily available in the market are shades of “interior latex with mildew inhibitors.” The shade of color should depend on the size of bathroom, if the bathroom is small in size and to give it spacious look go for light pastels in the background and decorate it with darker color splashes or designs on it. If the bathroom is tiled than even the paint should also match with it.
