Matt or glossy kitchen in 2022?
One of the many decisions we have to make when implementing the design of our new kitchen is the finish of the surfaces, both floors and walls.

Matt or glossy kitchen 2022
There is no right or wrong decision when it comes to matt or gloss kitchen, as the optimal result will depend on which of the two options best suits the specific conditions of the space and the user. So, the right question really is, what are the advantages of one option or the other? We tell you below:
Matt kitchen tiles
The main advantage is that the porcelain floors The matt finish requires less maintenance in terms of cleaning, which is very practical as it frees us from daily maintenance.
Especially as the kitchen is one of the parts of the house that can be most subject to stains or splashes on a daily basis.
However, it should be noted that if you opt for a floor with anti-slip properties, its micro-textured surface may be slightly more difficult to clean compared to tiles with a polished finish.
On an aesthetic level, a matt finish for surfaces can convey greater serenity and calmness, and can be more successful if we wish to achieve a contemporary or industrial style where cement or wood leads the room.
The matt finish gives the space a more serene and peaceful appearance because it does not reflect glare and the surface is more uniform.
Glossy kitchen tiles
It is common to think that, in order to give a special touch to surfaces, we can resort to a polished finish. However, the choice of matt or glossy kitchen tiles also depends on other factors, as we have mentioned.
One of the main advantages of a kitchen with a gloss finish is the luminosity it gives off and the feeling of spaciousness that undeniably goes hand in hand with it. Therefore, if we have a kitchen with few sources of natural light, opting for gloss surfaces will be more appropriate.
Another factor that may influence the decision is that porcelain floors with a polished finish may also be easier to clean compared to porcelain with a non-slip finish, because of their smooth surface that retains less dirt.
The elegance and sophistication that a kitchen with a gloss finish conveys is incomparable. In addition, it creates a feeling of spaciousness in the room, a very positive value for kitchens of reduced dimensions.
Finally, from a stylistic perspective, the feeling of elegance and sophistication that goes hand in hand with glossy kitchens can be a determining factor when deciding, although, as we say, this factor is directly linked to the aesthetic taste of the owner.
