When planning a renovation beyond just flooring, such as in kitchens, wetrooms, bathrooms, laundries, and cabinetry in living and bedroom spaces, the selection of materials becomes even more diverse. Here are some additional hints, tips, and ideas for exploring different options and incorporating the modern ranges of NX Decor into your renovation.

Research and explore:

The world of laminates now is extensive, you can get just about anything – colour, texture, finish – you desire. Don’t sell yourself short, do the groundwork and let your imagination take hold while you explore the possibilities for your home.

• Familiarise yourself with the latest trends, materials, and finishes for different areas of your home. Browse interior design magazines, websites like Houzz, and social media platforms such as Pinterest,  and Instagram to gather ideas and inspiration.
• Look into the modern ranges of NX Decor, which offer extensive commercial laminate design options. From classic to contemporary, you can find a variety of finishes, textures, and colours that suit your style and preferences.

Consider functionality and durability:

Laminates are suitable for just about any area of the home, so don’t just limit yourself to the kitchen and the floors.

• Evaluate the practical requirements of each space. For example, in kitchens, choose materials that are resistant to moisture, stains, and heat. In wetrooms and bathrooms, opt for waterproof and easy-to-clean surfaces. There are beautiful finishes that can translate for built-in robes, shelving and laminate panelling in living and sleeping areas.
• NX decor often provides innovative solutions that combine functionality with aesthetic appeal. Explore the wide range of materials available for countertops, backsplashes, and cabinetry to find options that meet your needs.

Visit showrooms and tradeshows:

There is nothing more compelling or satisfying than getting up close and personal with the textures and finishes that offer possibilities to your surroundings. The range of commercial laminates, high gloss laminates and laminate panelling could inspire you to see beyond a planned all white kitchen. You also have the opportunity – without obligations – to talk to experts about your vision and expectations, and the endless ways that laminates can enhance your home spaces.

• Showrooms and tradeshows are excellent resources for exploring different materials and design ideas. Visit kitchen and bathroom showrooms to see various finishes, fixtures, and appliances in person.
• Talk to experts and gather information about the benefits and drawbacks of different materials. Request samples to take home and evaluate how they coordinate with the overall design scheme.

Create mood boards and visualise:

This is the fun stuff – get the whole family involved. Laminates offer something for everyone as far as colour, texture and application go. Let your imagination run wild – this is where your laminate samples will shine as you get the big picture of what you can achieve to renovate the home of your dreams.

• Extend the concept of mood boards to encompass the entire renovation project. Create separate mood boards or inspiration boards for each space, including kitchens, wetrooms, bathrooms, laundries, living and bedroom spaces. Cabinets, built-ins, floors, shelving, headboards and more can benefit from the application of laminate for functionality and visual impact.
• Compile images, colour palettes, textures, and materials that resonate with your vision. Experiment with different combinations of marble laminates, textured laminates and the vast variety of laminate countertops and panelling to see how they harmonise together and reflect your personal style.
