Is Japanese tatami suitable for the north? What should I pay attention to when decorating tatami?

Tatami decoration scheme has become the trend of modern home decoration. Many owners will definitely build a tatami area when decorating their new houses, so that the space looks a little atmospheric and warm. However, whether tatami should be decorated with wooden floor or ceramic tile, or because of the difference of climate and humidity between north and south, whether to choose tatami decoration style has become a tangled point for many owners who prefer tatami decoration style. So how to make a choice, Bian Xiao probably gave you some reference materials, hoping to help friends in need.

If your home decoration budget is really tight and you can't see under the tatami, we should do a good job of moistureproof under the tatami without laying the floor when decorating. But if the decoration budget is sufficient, I suggest you lay a floor. The poor moisture-proof performance of cement floor easily leads to damp and mildew of tatami. If you pack a set of tatami, the price will not be cheap. Compared with a cot+wardrobe+desk, the cost of ordering a tatami may be higher, which will lead to the decoration budget exceeding the standard. As one of the popular elements, lockers can be designed under tatami, which can store some items that are not commonly used, which not only endows the space with storage function, but also makes the space perfect. Moreover, some tatami beds also combine the design of tables, chairs and sofas to realize the diversified functions of space.

Because the north is dry, it is not easy to get wet, and the south is easy to get wet and moldy. Compared with spring mattresses, tatami is more in line with human habits and has moderate hardness. Long-term use is not only beneficial to the healthy development of children and adolescents, but also beneficial to the waist of middle-aged and elderly people. Tatami also has the advantage of flexibility. Its unrestricted characteristics make it possible to use it directly as a bed. At the same time, it can also be added to bookcases, wardrobes or desks for combined design, so that a space with tatami can have multiple functions.

Before considering installing tatami, you need to consider whether it is suitable for you to install tatami. For example, in the south where the seasons are wet, it is not recommended to spread tatami in the whole house, so as to avoid hiding evil spirits, and we should also consider the problem of cleaning and dehumidification. If floor heating is installed in the north, it is not suitable to add lockers under tatami, which is easy to deform.
