|

So watch out for weight gain. After all, the plane of the spruce is large, then the fastening of the wooden decor will be serious, this involves drilling in many places. And if the material is not reliable, then the mill may crack.
Choose material for room decor
Wall decor with wood can be done in different ways. After all, the huge selection provided to us on the market today allows us to choose a material that is suitable for any, as they say, “taste and color”.
Attention: An important role in the choice is played by such indicators as: effect on human health, difficulties in maintenance and installation, and, of course, price.
Decorating a room with natural wood today is, first of all, a solid interior and a good microclimate in the room due to good moisture exchange and air circulation. There are various types of finishes made of natural wood: lining, euro-lining, block house, hussvarblok, etc. Let us consider these and other types of finishing materials in more detail.
Lining
Lining is the cheapest finish option. It is a facing board, made of such wood species as spruce, aspen, larch, pine, etc.
So:
- Walls decorated with wood in this version can be painted or tinted several times - and this, of course, is a plus - to repaint the walls, and, accordingly, the interior can be changed repeatedly.
- It is also resistant to scratches, spalls and perfectly isolates sound from external sources. Installation is easy, does not require special skills.
- Also, while decorating the entire wall, it is quite possible to immediately carry out insulation, moreover, you can save a lot of doing it yourself (see.How to fix the lining to the wall: do according to the instructions).
- By cons, a large influence on the structure of the difference in temperature and moisture can be attributed. Also, a high probability of infection with various microorganisms.
Eurolining
Euro lining differs from ordinary lining in that it is manufactured according to special European standards for the manufacture of wood.
- It has connectors of a certain width for ventilation, protection against condensed moisture and preventing warping of wood.
- Deep recesses are also provided to reduce the size of the slots.
Attention: This option, unlike the previous one, is more accurate in size and making installation by your own hands much easier. Yes, and there will be significantly less waste.
Eurolining is divided into several categories:
| "AND" | This is the highest quality option, here you will not find knots at all. True and worth saying that the price will be the highest. |
| "AT" | The presence of several knots tightly seated in the wood is possible; |
| "WITH" | the lowest quality, rarely used for decorating. |
In general, the euro lining is more expensive than a conventional lining, but it is also made better and more attractive.
Block house
Wood wall decor is now done quite often. The blockhouse is designed to create the appearance of a log. It is made from the outside of the board, making it seem like a solid log house.
So:
- This is not a very expensive material due to waste-free production: a beam or flat boards are made from the rest of the log.
- The advantages of the blockhouse include good indicators of durability, heat and sound insulation, and easy installation. Even after several decades, it does not deform, it also has high non-burning values and is not affected by insects: in the production, the blockhouse is impregnated with special substances.
- Installation of such blocks also does not seem impossible and even the most inexperienced builders can do. The type used to fasten such a system is called a spike groove (seeFinishing an indoor unit with a house: rules for performing work).
- The cheapest option is made from pine, which, by the way, due to the release of resin has a fairly high protection against water and strength.
- The larch blockhouse is the most moisture resistant and also has great strength indicators. To maintain a clean microclimate, a cedar blockhouse is bought, which in addition to good moisture exchange has high strength.
- There are two types of blockhouses: wide (from 130 to 230 mm) and narrow (from 80 to 90 mm). For use in interior decoration, a narrow one is often chosen - the area of the room is maximized due to the minimum width of the decoration.
Gusvarblok
If you are looking for a unique picture and high environmental performance, the strength of heat and sound insulation, durability, even distribution of moisture and the price for you is a secondary thing, then the gusvarblok is your choice.
- This material has a huge number of types of profiles - about ten thousand, in addition, they can be combined with each other. Installation is quite easy and without special building skills.
- Here the loss of integrity of the picture does not occur due to the special compound patented by the company.
- The material is quite easy to clean. Many designers use gusvarblok to create original interiors.
Attention: Decor from wood to the wall can be done with wallpaper, they are also produced of this type. You can look at options on a photo.
Natural wood wallpaper
Decorative wood on the wall can be more than simple wood panelingbut also wallpaper. Moreover, natural.
- Made of expensive wood, these wallpapers are veneer rolls glued to paper. Today in this field there is a large selection - more than 100 types of wood are used for the manufacture of natural wallpaper.
- They have a thickness of 0.1 - 0.6 mm. Among the main advantages - a variety of patterns and the ability to stick on convex and concave walls.
- To maintain a pleasant appearance, they are usually covered with a special substance. The disadvantages include high fire hazard, instability to insects, moisture and sunlight. For example, cherry wallpapers are very susceptible to light - they darken.
Wallpaper made of thermal wood
Such wallpaper is a kind of modern, more practical replacement for natural wood wallpaper. They are durable, fireproof, resistant to insects and do not need additional treatment with varnishes and oils. But, unlike other wallpapers, they are glued only on flat surfaces.
Decorative panels on the wall
The most expensive, luxurious and noble of all the presented types of materials. Emphasize the selectivity and sense of style of the owners of the house.
The front veneer is made of oak, maple, cedar, alder, etc., 2 remaining layers - inner and middle - from pine to reduce the cost. At the factory they are varnished to increase moisture resistance, immunity to ultraviolet and dirt.
For rooms in which you or your children spend a lot of time - bedrooms and nurseries - they usually install waxed panels, as they are more environmentally friendly.
If you want decorative wall-paper at a lower price - tinted panels are for you. They are usually made of pine and have a rather convenient fastening system. The disadvantages, in addition to cost, include difficulties in maintenance - the panels need to be updated with varnish coatings every 5 years and often wiped with a damp cloth without abrasives.
The tree branches in the decor on the wall are used by few owners. Decorative tree for the walls can be natural and artificial. Here you have to choose according to preference.
To summarize, we can say that today the market for interior decoration is quite diverse:
- If you are looking for a budget option - lining and euro lining for you, if you want a stylish, respectable interior - a section with decorative wall panels will give your room a cozy atmosphere and show guests your sense of taste.
- If you are the goal of your search - a huge number of combinations of profiles and your own, original design - stop your choice on the gusvarblok.
