Wooden trim is not just for hallways and country kitchens lined with wooden slats from ceiling to floor. Modern solutions offer original wall decorations that give the interior a unique character. Not only can they warm up the space of the living room or bedroom, but also the kitchen.
A wooden wall has many incarnations. Depending on what color and pattern we choose, we will get a completely different effect in the interior. A warming birch decor, whitewashed boards brightening the interior, or maybe a wooden puzzle in different colors? It is up to us to decide whether the wall cladding will be a subtle background of the arrangement or its leading star.
A wall with wooden decor can be mounted vertically or horizontally, highlight one of the walls or create a decorative strip in the form of a lamella.

We can install a wall with wooden decor vertically or horizontally, highlight one of the walls or create a decorative strip in the form of a lamella. We can create a wooden wall not only with natural boards. Tiles, wallpaper or wall panels will also help us achieve the effect we dream of.

A decorative wall will bring warmth and a cozy atmosphere to the interiors, but in addition to aesthetic qualities, we will also appreciate its functional aspects. The cladding is resistant to moisture and scratches, so we can rest a sea umbrella or shopping against it without worry. The panels are very light - we do not need to ask professionals to install them, all we need is glue and the support of household members. When dirt appears on the wall, we can remove it with a damp cloth - so we can choose even light wood patterns, without fear that they will quickly become damaged.

how to choose wood for the interior?
If we have a small kitchen, and we dream of a wooden wall, let's bet on Light Wood panels. The pattern resembling bleached wood will be a practical decoration for the wall behind the table, resistant to impacts and splashes during kitchen experiments. To optically brighten a small interior, let's choose white or pastel accessories. Let's also remember to limit the room to a maximum of 3 types of wood, as a greater variety can overwhelm and give the impression of chaos. So if you have wooden countertops in your kitchen furniture, try to make them consistent with the floor.
A wooden wall is most often hosted behind the headboard of the bed. However, if we install the panels on the wall adjacent to the bed, falling asleep we will be able to admire the birch decor warming the interior. As a complement to this arrangement, beige accessories or those in the color of deep green will work perfectly. A cozy bedroom should also not lack light-colored curtains, which will bring an intimate atmosphere to the interior.

A wall with a décor resembling dark wood will give the living room an elegant character. Rosewood pattern from Vilo will be a good choice for those who decorate interiors more conservatively. However, if you want to introduce a bit of craziness and extravagance into your apartment, bet on Larix Decor. These wall panels look like a jigsaw puzzle composed of wooden staves in different shades. In a living room with an original wall, it is worth betting on simple white furniture, which will not compete with the decorativeness of the cladding. A universal decoration of such an interior will be plants, which will further enliven the space.
Avoid combining warm and cold tones, and when choosing the color of paint for the rest of the wall, make sure that it has the same tone as the decoration you have chosen

In a small hallway, let's bet on bright patterns that will not overwhelm the interior. Grey Wood, White Plank or Light Wood can be mounted on the entire height of the wall, or in the form of a lamella, which will make the room seem taller. Avoid combining warm and cold tones, and when choosing a paint color for the rest of the wall, make sure that it has the same tonality as the decor you have chosen. To aesthetically finish the wall with the floor we will need skirting boards. Let's use, for example, Esquero by Vilo, which is made of impact-resistant material and has a special compartment for cables. The white color will go well with the whitewashed boards on the wall and contrast with the darker floor.
