The role of the windowsill in the interior

Window sills — an obligatory element of any residential or non -residential premises. However, they pay little attention, although it is they who help to make accents and emphasize the style of the room.

Modern window sills are made from MDF plates, wood, plastic, natural and artificial stone. Each type of window sill has its own characteristics and care requirements. So, wooden window sills are dry and cracked if they are constantly in contact with water, and plastic ones are afraid of large loads. To make the windowsill more durable and minimize possible problems, it is recommended to use porcelain tile lining, ceramic tiles and even mosaic. Yes, yes, the mosaic can be laid out not only on the floor or walls, but also on the windowsill. It will look especially harmonious on kitchen window sills in combination with the bright color scheme of the room.

The choice of material for the windowsill is largely determined by the interior, because in the room everything should be harmonious. Wooden window sills or window sills of plastic or MDF with a surface imitating wood are good in any rooms, but fit especially well into the interiors where the tree prevails.

If the walls of the room are laid out with tiles, it is better to give preference to window sills of stone, which coincides in color with flooring, but the color scheme of walls and window sills can contrast between themselves. This will make the room more original and sophisticated.

As for the size of the window sill, some strict requirements do not exist. Usually for the size of the window opening is no more than 15 cm on each side of the structure. However, there may be other solutions. So, for lovers of growing flowers, a wide window sill with a protrusion is more suitable, on which you can arrange a large number of pots.
