Characteristics of an eco-friendly interior
Now there is a huge trend to preserve the nature and ecology of the world. This trend also extends to home improvement.
Eco-friendly and safe materials
Such materials are those that do not emit harmful and dangerous substances and do not harm nature. At the same time, the materials are divided into purely environmentally friendly and conditionally environmentally friendly.
Nature itself provides completely environmentally friendly materials – wood, stone, silk, bamboo, straw, cotton, etc. These materials have been used in the construction industry for centuries, but they have a significant drawback, they rarely meet all fire safety and endurance standards. Etc.
Therefore, conditionally environmentally friendly materials are most often used, which are made from natural materials and at the same time they do not harm nature and humans. Also, such materials have more advanced performance characteristics. These include brick, tile, tile, aluminum and glass.
Glass is one of the most technologically advanced of environmentally friendly materials and it is widely used in all areas. Now you can choose absolutely different glass partitions or doors for your home. The main characteristics of glass are that, due to the tempering, it becomes very durable, resistant to high temperatures and humidity.
The second life of things
Conscious consumption, which, among other things, involves the maximum use of the potential of an already produced thing, is becoming a popular concept in all areas of life. More and more people understand that natural resources are limited and it is better not to spend them on the production of new things when you can use existing ones.
Resource Saving
Ecological space is also evaluated in terms of how much natural resources are spent on its maintenance. Important points are heating, lighting and water consumption.
To make space heating efficient and economical, it is important to choose windows with good thermal insulation, as most of the heat escapes through them. Curtains and rugs can help too.
One of the most energy-efficient lighting solutions is light-emitting diode (LED) lamps. Choose high-quality options so that the light bulbs serve for a long time, and be sure to recycle them after the end of their service life
“Smart home” systems and light intensity adjustment also help to save energy.
