A variety of materials for finishing helps with the choice. After all, you can take into account not only prices and quality, but also the origin of materials, advantages, all questions during installation, choose the right ones for the chosen style.

The most common and environmentally friendly material is considered natural wood. This is not only beautiful, but good for the health of those living in the house in that natural wood helps with dampness.

If a decision has already been made to decorate the walls with wood, then it is necessary to take a responsible approach to the choice of materials. After all, each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Clapboard for wall decoration

One of the economical options is a decorative board made from different types of trees. Finishing will not only help save the budget, but will last for several decades. Boards have high strength, resistance to different types impacts.

During installation will not cause any inconvenience, as it is done very easily. Thanks to them, the room will have excellent sound insulation. Lining will allow you to change the interior of the apartment with minimal cost because it can be repeatedly tinted and painted.

When installing, take care of heat and sound insulation. It has high performance in fires and will not become the beginning of the reproduction of insects and microorganisms. Interior decoration wood walls are not difficult to installation work and not cause problems even for a novice builder.

Gusvarbloks and their features

Such material has a much higher cost compared to the rest. finishing materials. Thanks to the wide range of options, different profiles can be perfectly combined with each other. At the same time, it is possible to create a unique and unique interior.

Gusvarblok has the same characteristics as its predecessors. One significant difference between them is the price of the material.

Wall decoration with wood wallpaper

The range of natural materials in the construction markets is wide. At the present time, they are produced from more than a hundred types of wood. First, the rolled veneer is glued to the paper, which is necessarily thick, and then used as the most ordinary wallpaper.

This wood finish has a number of positive qualities. To appearance wooden wallpapers pleased it is necessary to paint them from time to time with varnish or wax. On direct hits sun rays finish changes color.

It gets a little darker. If water somehow got on the wallpaper, then we can assume that they are damaged. When ignited, they ignite easily.

Wall panels for wall decoration

Photo examples of wall decoration with wood

Even one wooden wall in a room can enliven it and set a pleasant mood for the entire interior. In most interiors, such a wall will be called an accent wall. In some styles that mimic a rustic atmosphere, it will not be out of place to make all four walls wooden. There is only one catch: if you are doing repairs in an apartment, then wooden walls initially it is not expected in it - they will have to be created with the help of finishing. In this article, we will look at different cost and complexity ways to do this.

Boards from pallets





What you need: pallets, sandpaper, stain, nails, antiseptic, tools.

Price: very low - only the price of consumables, pallets can be found for free.

To whom to entrust: easy to do yourself.

Cross cuts

The wall, decorated with round saw cuts of wood of different sizes, looks very original. They can be glued directly to the wall or to a panel, such as plywood, and mounted on the wall already.

You can’t decorate the whole apartment like that, since the process is laborious, and washing such a wall is a dubious pleasure. The reception is rather decorative and will go for an accent wall or even for a small segment of it.





What you need: branches collected in the forest, saw, wood impregnation, glue.

Price: very low - the cost of impregnation and glue.

To whom to entrust: easy to make yourself, you can even glue with children.

Option: if you like a wall assembled from small "squares" or textured dice different sizes, instead of branches, use bars and boards.



Laminate

The same laminate that is placed on the floor can be placed on the walls. Is not natural wood, but the difference is not very noticeable, and the price is much lower. The laminate is assembled in a joint and can only be held on the wall with glue or liquid nails, but for reliability, you can mount it on metal carcass- this installation option will be more difficult and a little more expensive.

Today is another post for you.

"We recently bought an apartment in which a large kitchen-living room is upholstered in wood from floor to ceiling. And now I don't know how to present it. What colors go with wood (except obviously white), which kitchen to choose so that everything does not merge into one the whole, what textiles to choose and in general ..
It would be great to see a selection dedicated to houses finished with wood."

I think that this topic is interesting not only to Zhenya, since the tree is the most common construction material in Russia. Wood is environmentally friendly and durable warm material which can be very attractive. Perhaps the only negative is the prevalence. Classic lining, timber, board are often used because it is "cheap and cheerful". This can also affect the perception of the design of the house, even if the finish was chosen deliberately for other reasons (at least a feature near Moscow). Therefore, I will devote part of today's analysis to this topic.

Used for finishing different breeds wood: oak, apple, walnut, pine, birch, exotic species. It can be given the appearance of zebrano, wenge, rosewood, bleached oak, and if desired, painted. You probably know that by choosing a pine, you choose its texture - along with knots and possible eyes. This will have to be taken into account in the further design of the interior.

Everything is important in wood finishing: from the breed and texture to the color, size and shape of the panels. It is not necessary to stick to one.

Here is a vivid example of combining different textures, colors and shapes of wood:

Wood can be processed in different ways: stained, varnished, decorative protective coating, painted, artificially aged, you can make a typesetting pattern with it or use carving ...

I'll start simple.

Rustic or country interior:

The texture of the wood can define the style. So, if all the walls (and, possibly, the ceiling) are finished with classic clapboard, I suggest forgetting the standard cottage solution interior design - "I blinded him from what was" (in other words, from the unnecessary brought in the apartment).

The tree is a self-sufficient background that should not be overloaded. It can be shaded with: Natural materials (leather, wicker furniture, stone), supplement with uniform textiles (of a similar texture) and dilute with something bright (floral prints, bright colors).

Hut:

Logs look brutal and noble. In such an interior, massive wooden furniture will look good, forged furniture and accessories.

Aged tree:

A tree that looks old acquires nobility. He can be forgiven for cracks and cracks.

Bleached wood:

A few years ago, the craze for bleached wood passed. It really does look great.
For such an interior, you can choose furniture and accessories in a classic style.

Painted wood:

If you are tired of the color of the wood, it can be painted in the same way as wooden furniture.

Such an interior can be decorated in country style.

Modern interior:

Smooth, neatly fitted to each other boards can be an excellent backdrop for modern interior. I would say that for such an interior you need more space.

Light furniture, both white, cream, and gray and even light green, will look ideal.

Zoning

Wooden walls can be distinguished by painting part of the walls.

Wooden walls go well with stone and brick:

COLOR SOLUTIONS

When choosing the color of furniture and textiles, you will have to take into account the shade of wood that you have chosen. From the shades I recommend choosing natural. A few combinations that seem to me the most successful are below.

White, creamy, creamy. Light interior looks lighter and calmer. And even the animal skin does not look intimidating here:

RED

Red is a strong color. And at the same time, its shades are suitable for most shades of wood.

If the interior, where a lot of red is used, will not appeal to many ...

then the interiors, where accents are placed with this color, are liked by the majority:

Green is also a very natural color. The most natural will be the use of ornamental plants:

Green can also be chosen as an accent color when the rest of the interior is in calm colors:

And combine with red:

Gray, blue-black, gray-blue - natural shades of stone:

Choose a style and make your apartment or house complete and individual.

When buying a new or well-worn apartment, many are faced with the problem of decorating the walls in the rooms. Some people prefer the traditional style of design, others extol such an option as environmental friendliness, and still others prefer to use only new fashionable methods and materials in the design of the environment. For all these categories of people, wood wall decoration is suitable.

Benefits of wood finishing

Wooden panels on the wall of the apartment

Wood, as you know, is an environmentally friendly natural material. It will give any apartment prestige and beauty. The apartment, finished with wood, also has an extraordinary comfort, combined with solidity. Selecting the desired pattern or shape of the material is not difficult. You can use a blockhouse, eurolining, siding or ordinary timber.

Wood trim lasts a very long time. The material used for wall cladding is always impregnated with a special composition. It is thanks to the latter that wood cladding, even from soft wood species, has great abrasion resistance and high strength.

Benefits of wood

  1. Finishing apartments with wood is fast, beautiful and of high quality. All irregularities on the surface of the walls are completely hidden.
  2. High environmental friendliness of wood.
  3. Possibility of application for interior design various kinds design: from minimalism to chic elegance.
  4. Creation of a comfortable microclimate in the room. Wood provides a constant level of humidity in the premises. If the concentration of moisture in the air is too high, it absorbs it, and if it is too low, it releases it into the surrounding space. As a result, a normal microclimate is constantly maintained in the room.
  5. Excellent noise and sound insulation. This is another advantage of wood. This material is ideal for residents of apartments with shattered nerves, as it isolates the room from the constant chaotic sounds from the street.
  6. A wide selection of colors and textures. Wood paneling can be made from larch, pine, beech or any other tree.
  7. Absence of unnatural smells and pleasant aroma. Wood paneling does not emit incomprehensible chemical odors, it smells only of natural ingredients, especially resins.
  8. Durability. wood cladding internal walls does not mold and does not rot.

Installation of wooden wall cladding


Installation of a wooden crate

To begin with, a frame is constructed from wooden beams on which the skin will be attached (see photo). If desired, you can use the base not from wood, but from iron profiles. The frame can not be installed, but only on condition that the walls in the apartment are perfectly even. Then it is thoroughly dried. facing material. You can also dry it at home, but for this you will need to put the material in a well-ventilated area. The wood should be laid in layers, between which linings should be placed for better air circulation. It is worth remembering that deciduous and soft wood species dry the fastest. A longer time will have to dry softwood and hardwood.

Given that wood paneling is quite expensive, and the installation process itself takes a lot of time and effort, it should be used only in certain areas of the house. Most the best place for walls with such a coating - a kitchen. For cladding the walls of apartments, it is worth using special decorative boards. Basically, the average thickness of such products is 3 centimeters. There are also thinner ones. Their thickness is approximately 2 centimeters, and their width is 12 centimeters. Of course, such products are much more expensive.

The frame for wood trim should be installed perpendicular to the future sheathing. Let's say the cladding elements are planned to be mounted in a horizontal position. Then the frame should be vertical. If the skin parts are arranged vertically, then the frame is installed in a horizontal position.


Fixing wooden panels

Particular attention should be paid to wall cladding with wood in rooms with high humidity. The frame in such places should be treated with a special anti-rot and anti-fungal compound. Also, in order for the boards and the frame to not start to mold, after installation, you will need to do a mini-ventilation system. In order to organize it, small holes are made in the cladding boards in the lower and upper parts. So that they do not violate the whole view of the cladding, the holes must be made at the same level to eliminate the chaotic accumulation of holes.

If it is necessary to insulate the walls of the apartment, a heat-insulating layer is laid in the frame area. In order to install it, when mounting the frame, the distance between the bars in height and width should be equal to half a meter. In addition, when installing the base of the cladding, you will need to use bars measuring six by six centimeters. The resulting square is filled with glass wool or mineral wool.

Mounting methods

  1. Installing butt-to-butt cladding. In this case, screws or nails are used to fasten individual parts of the finish. Given the fact that the heads of the fasteners will be constantly visible, nails and screws should be fixed at the same level. If necessary, you can draw a special line in advance. Screws for fastening must be chrome-plated, as well as heads of a hidden type.
  2. Sheathing the walls of the apartment with finishing boards with ridges and grooves. This method of sheathing allows you not to leave the heads of nails and screws on the surface of the wood.

Wood surface treatment


Wood processing

In particularly wet rooms, it will not be superfluous to cover the surface of the wood wall cladding with oil varnish. When using softwood sheathing, all structural elements located on the front side are fired with a lamp. This treatment will give the surface more decorative look. When burning wood with a lamp, you should constantly monitor the color of the fire. He must have lilac shade. The yellow flame is sure to leave black marks on the surface of the wood. Also, to achieve a uniform pattern, it is worth moving the lamp at the same speed during firing. In order not to burn the wooden finish, the flame should only touch the wooden parts of the structure with the tip.

Selection and purchase of wooden cladding


The choice of material and its dimensions is up to you

To avoid unnecessary losses, before buying wood trim structural elements, you will need to accurately calculate required amount material. If this is not done, then extra costs will follow, since a certain amount of material will remain, which, most likely, will have nowhere to go. In addition, you should immediately decide on the room in which the repair will be carried out, with the method of installation used, with the quality and type of material and with the type of wood, and its color. The shade of wood, by the way, is very important, as it allows you to expand or reduce the room. If the room has insufficient lighting through the windows, and it has a small area, then light wood tones are simply necessary for its cladding. Dark wood paneling will easily reduce the size of a large room.

In order to enlarge the room, you can use the technique of dividing the room into functional zones. This division occurs through the use of several tones. wood paneling. For example, light colors are more suitable for a recreation area. They will help the owner of the house to relax as quickly as possible. For working area you have to use dark colors. They will help focus and give the area some seriousness.

As you can see, decorating the walls with wood is not the easiest process. It has to take into account a fairly large number of criteria for the design of the space as a whole.
