improve The quality of interior architecture, enriching it aesthetically, and raising
the efficiency of employing finishing materials. the research conclude to There
are some finishing materials that architects know well, such as iron, plastic, and
epoxy, and they use them in their designs for executive reasons and not for
aesthetic or design reasons.
There are some finishing materials such as fiber cement, anodized
aluminum, and aluminum foam. A few architects and designers know them, and
