    AREEBA KOMAL QAZI


    WOODEN FLOORING
    • Wood is a common choice as a flooring material and can
    come in various styles, colors, cuts, and species.
    • All types of hardwood floors have unmatched natural
    beauty and go with any decor — modern, traditional,
    country, you name it.
    • Hardwood flooring goes in any room, although kitchens
    and basements warrant special considerations.
    SOLID HARDWOOD
    • Solid hardwood floor planks are made from a
    piece of wood and made to be anywhere from
    18 to 20 mm thick.
    • The boards are made with a tongue and groove
    to fit together for installation.
    • The harder the floor, the less susceptible it is to
    dings and scratches.
    • CONS
    • Solid hardwood will swell in moist conditions
    and contract as the area dries. The change of
    shape can alter the appearance of the floor and
    cause problems. Installation is a complex
    process, and for the best appearance must be
    done with great care.
    • This is the most expensive option for those
    shopping for wood floors.
    ENGINEERD HARDWOOD
    • Engineered hardwood is made using three to four layers of wood glued together to
    produce a 14 mm thick plank.
    • A real wood surface about 4 mm in thickness is applied to the top to allow it to be
    sanded and refinished a certain number of times to remove signs of damage, wear, and
    tear.
    • Engineered hardwood construction produces a more stable product. The greater stability
    means it is less prone to changes from temperature and humidity conditions in the
    room. This type of flooring is more attractive than a laminate floor but it is also less
    expensive than solid hardwood floors.
    • Depending on the style and brand, engineered hardwood floors will range anywhere
    from $2 to $11 per square foot.
    LAMINATE
    • Laminate is a cost effective option that will
    withstand a certain amount of wear.
    • For an easy installation, opt for click-lock.
    The planks will snap together and can be laid
    over other flooring. It is ideal for living areas,
    and some brands may even construct it with a
    waterproof core, allowing it to be used in
    areas where water may be an issue.
    • Depending on the brand and style, laminate
    will range anywhere from $0.50 to $6 per sq
    ft.
    • CONS
    • Top quality laminate will not match the look
    and feel of real wood floors. The areas where
    the planks join will wear considerably over
    time, and when damage sets in, it is not an
    easy repair.
    BAMBOO
    • Bamboo floors come from bamboo grass stalks
    prominent in Asia.
    • The floors are produced in China, and come in a
    variety of styles and finishes to suit various decor
    options.
    • Since it is a tropical grass as opposed to wood for
    trees, it is naturally resistant to moisture. The
    flooring is produced by pressing fibers together
    under high pressure.
    • Bamboo flooring is softer than traditional
    hardwoods, so it will not cause pain if it is stood on
    for long periods of time. The softness of the floor
    will also reduce noise.
    • environmentally friendly and an optimal choice for
    those who are looking to build “green.”
    • The cost for bamboo floors ranges anywhere from
    $2 to $8 per square foot.
    • CONS
    • Despite the fact that it is a durable type of flooring,
    it is more susceptible to dings and scratches than
    other wood floors.
    CORK FLOORING
    • Cork floors come for the harvest of the cork oak tree bark. These trees
    are widely grown in: Spain, Portugal, Algeria, Italy, Morocco, and
    Tunisia.
    • Environmentally friendly because cork is a sustainable and renewable
    resource.
    • The natural beauty of the material can suite any decor. The structure of
    the cork allows for a natural comfort and softness to absorb shock.
    • The natural properties of the material make it healthy because it is not
    only resistant to insects, but it is hypo-allergenic.
    • CONS
    • One of the drawbacks of cork flooring is the cost. It is more expensive
    than other wood flooring options.
    • The cost of import, plus material, plus installation is more than many
    budgets can handle
    WOODEN
    WALLS
    • WOODEN WALLS ARE NOT
    EXEEDINGLY USED IN KARACHI DUE
    TO ITS HIGH MAINTENANCE,COST
    AND HARSH WEATHER.
    • THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF WOODEN
    WALLS CLASSIFIED IN MATERIALS AS
    WELL AS INSTALLING.
    TYPES OF
    WOODEN
    WALLS
    SHIPLAP PANELING
    • Shiplap, which is usually laid horizontally, acquired its name
    as its panels overlap, with grooved boards called “rabbets”
    fitting together tightly to form a weatherproof seal. Shiplap is
    inherently informal and tends to make the most sense in
    cottage-inspired homes in need of the texture and the warmth
    of a natural material. It first came into popularity on home
    exteriors.
    TONGUE AND GROOVE:
    • Tongue and groove is very similar to shiplap and offers the
    same clean, classic look. The difference is in the way the
    boards connect; while shiplap panels are joined with a
    rabbet joint at the top and bottom of each board, tongue
    and groove paneling connects where the “tongue” of one
    board fits into the “groove” of another.
    • RECLAIMED WOOD:
    • Whether you utilize actual reclaimed wood or simply use
    new wood and make it look old, a wall of reclaimed wood
    paneling can add loads of texture to a space.
    • The stain color or finish you select will have a lot of sway
    on the final look.
    PLASTER WALL
    Plaster is one of the mot common kind of wall
    interior finish. Even though it originated in the
    mid 17th century even plaster of Paris is used
    extensively.

    The compound can be used to stylize and mould


    any shape to decorate your homes in varied
    style, ranging from Victorian to French design.
    BENEFITS
    • Lends elegance and beauty to
    wall.

    • Enhance durability.

    • Plaster walls are stronger in


    comparison to other kind of walls.
    DECORATIVE USES OF PLASTER WALL

    • The interior plaster walls can be decorated through paints.


    • We can also apply wooden panels or laminated sheets of wooden
    • It can also be decorated by different techniques of plaster.
    • Wall papers are pasted to make it more decorative.
