Wooden walls: practical and beautiful

The walls in the room occupy a large part compared to the floor and ceiling. Therefore, it is important to choose a high-quality and effective finish, as She will immediately catch my eye, as a rather main participant in the interior.

In general, wood is one of the most common building materials, especially in Russia, because wood is a durable and environmentally friendly product, in addition, it is very attractive in appearance. Of the cheap options - this is a board, timber or classic lining. The most diverse species of wood are used: pine, oak, walnut, birch, apple tree and even exotic species. For example, if you use pine, then you should take into account its texture along with knots and eyes. In wood, everything seems very important, starting from the breed and texture, and ending with the size and shape of the panels.

What to consider when choosing a material

The wide variety and abundance of materials available today makes it possible to take into account all the necessary criteria, such as practicality, environmental friendliness, peculiarities of care, installation, price, and what is very important - the possibility of decorating the room in a particular chosen style. The use of natural wood always contributes to a beautiful stylish interior, as well as the process of moisture exchange, which in turn provides a favorable microclimate in the room.
Each type of decoration has its own advantages and disadvantages, whether it is a lining, euro lining, a blockhouse or others. We will analyze each type in more detail.

Lining

It represents the most economical way, using a decorative facing board for decoration, the manufacture of which can be carried out using the following trees: pine, spruce, linden, aspen, larch, oak, alder, cedar, etc. This finish is very durable, durable, resistant to various mechanical influences , easy to install, has good sound insulation and is inexpensive. By the way, another big plus is the ability to update the interior, as painting or tinting can be repeated in this case.

Disadvantages include the risk of infection by fungi and insects, as well as poor tolerance of moisture and temperature changes.

Eurolining

This type is essentially a classic lining with all its advantages with the only difference - it is made taking into account European quality standards. The main difference is the existing longitudinal grooves intended for ventilation. They serve as protection against condensation, as well as from voltage inside the wood. Eurolining has deeper connecting grooves, so the likelihood of crevices is significantly reduced. There are several categories:

  • “A” is the highest, with a complete absence of knots on the surface;
  • "B" - average, allowing the presence of knots on the surface;
  • "C" - the lowest, rarely used for finishing work

Block house

Represents one of the varieties of finishing boards, imitating a beam or log and creating the effect of a wooden log house. The material is relatively inexpensive, like lining, due to some production features. It is made by sawing logs according to the “square in a circle” scheme. Thus, from the inside of the log you can get a beam and flat boards, and blanks for the blockhouse - from the outside. Therefore, production goes waste-free.
The main advantages of the blockhouse are: durability, strength, excellent thermal insulation and excellent sound insulation, easy installation, as well as the absence of deformation even after twenty to thirty years. It has very high fire safety indicators, as impregnated with antiseptics and flame retardants, practically not affected by fungi and insects.The cheapest option is a blockhouse made of pine or spruce, which, by the way, releases tar, which contributes to waterproofing and increased strength.
The use of cedar ensures the maintenance of an optimal level of moisture and a healthy microclimate in the room.
Larch blockhouse improves moisture resistance and strength.
Both wide (130-230 mm) and narrow (80-90 mm) blockhouses are distinguished. For interior decoration it is recommended to use a narrow one - thus less floor space is lost.

Gusvarblok

It represents a more innovative and expensive type of finishing material with tens of thousands of different types of profiles, wonderfully combined with each other. This feature contributes to the creation of unique exclusive interiors. The panels are joined using a hidden connection that does not violate the pattern. Installation is quite simple, not requiring special skills.
The advantages are the same as those of the lining, the euro lining and the blockhouse - environmental friendliness, high heat and sound insulation, as well as strength, durability and ease of care.

Wooden natural wallpaper

They are veneer rolls made of valuable wood, having a thickness of 0.1 to 0.6 mm. Today, there are many types of wooden wallpapers made from more than one hundred species of wood, which have a very different structure of veneer, which is glued to thick paper.
The great advantage of wooden wallpaper is the possibility of gluing on a radius surface, which does not allow the previous types of materials.
There are also other features, for example, the need for a fairly long time to cover with varnish, wax or oil in order to maintain a favorable appearance. In addition, wooden wallpaper can change color under the influence of sunlight, as well as swell in cases of water. And finally, they are easily susceptible to infection by fungi and insect pests, and also, there is a fairly high fire hazard.

Wallpaper made of thermal wood

They represent an alternative to wallpaper made of natural wood and are the most practical option, because with the help of modern technologies, they retain their appearance perfectly, are moisture resistant, fireproof, durable, not affected by fungi and pests.
However, there is one feature - unlike other materials, TMD wallpapers are glued only to extremely smooth walls.

Decorative wall panels

They represent the most expensive type of material made from an array of valuable tree species, such as oak, maple, cedar and alder. Finishing with wooden wall panels gives the interior an extraordinary nobility, and also speaks of sophistication of tastes and affluence.
Three-layer panels are issued, equipped only with face veneer from valuable wood species. Everything else is made from pine or spruce, i.e. from cheaper raw materials in order to lower costs. The panels are coated with acrylic varnish or wax to provide resistance to moisture, ultraviolet and pollution. By the way, the most environmentally friendly ones are waxed (and not varnished), which is why they are especially recommended for children's rooms and bedrooms.
There is another type of panel - it is tinted, made of solid pine, equipped with a very convenient system of profiles for fastening, as well as having a lower cost.
However, it should be remembered that any type of wooden wall panels requires a very delicate care by wiping with a damp cloth (strongly moisturized is strictly forbidden), without the use of abrasive and solvents. In addition, it is necessary to constantly update the coating (varnish or wax) every five years.
