Doors for the home: how to choose the right model

One could say "to each his own". Every room in the house, in fact, needs specific doors in order to shine at its best. The choice that goes well in the bathroom, evidently, may not be suitable for the living room. Not to mention the overall stylistic setting of the house, the dimensions and the spending budget.

In short, every room can be enhanced with the right door. So let's try to give some advice.
Choosing house doors for the living room

The hub of the house, where people gather to relax and be together. The living room is undoubtedly one of the most important areas of your home. Considering that this is an area often linked to relaxation, it is also possible to range between styles and colors, always taking into account the overall harmony. The most interesting options for this area are:

    Doors with overlapping panels: This type of door includes glass inserts in a traditional wood door. So these are hinged doors, with a touch of originality that never hurts;
    Glass doors: If you want to make the most of natural light and don't have privacy issues, glass doors are ideal for a living room. They give lightness and harmony, thanks also to a modern and balanced look.

The best doors for the kitchen

The kitchen is another of those areas of the house where we spend a lot of time together. Therefore, it is good to be able to find an alternative capable of appearing solid and safe, but also captivating enough to cheer up before sitting down at the table. Here are two interesting alternatives:

    Hinged doors: the classic never goes out of style. With swing doors with wooden doors it is possible to obtain an immediate result thanks to their style, ease of use and the warmth of wood. Ideal for a room designed to prepare food and get together with friends and family;
    Swing doors: this is a rather "exotic" alternative for domestic contexts, given that it is mainly used in restaurant kitchens. On the other hand, the so-called back-and-forth doors offer an intuitiveness that is difficult to find in other types of fixtures. Ideal for a dynamic environment such as the kitchen, where people go in and out frequently.
