Painting lining inside the house in different colors: beautiful ideas in the interior

Lining is often used in interior design. It is inexpensive, environmentally friendly, has an attractive appearance. But from time to time it may be necessary to paint the lining in different colors. In what cases there is such a need and what materials are best suited for this, we will tell in this article.

Initially, this material was used to finish the walls of cars (hence the name). However, for quite a long time, wall paneling has been used to design walls inside houses. Its advantages are widely known - environmental friendliness, aesthetics, accessibility, ease of installation.

Manufacturers offer the following types of lining:

• In the "quarter". This type is devoid of a thorn-groove attachment system, but has protrusions in the side portions.It allows you to lay boards overlap, which creates a rather interesting effect.
• With a tongue. Such lining is usually used for finishing of vertically located surface. It resembles an ordinary grooved board, but smaller. Office space, reception areas - the scope of application of this type of wall paneling.

• "Calm", "Peasant", "Russian", "Simple" - the most popular types of wall paneling. Equipped with a tongue-and-groove locking system, a compensating chute and a smooth, perfectly smooth surface.
• Bilateral type has a classic connection system, presented on both sides.

• Lining. Reminds a edged board. A characteristic feature of this type is high-quality processing on each side. The elements are interconnected according to the “tongue and groove” principle. Eurolining is most often made of coniferous trees. Enlarged junction of this type (up to 8 millimeters) allows you to create a coating without visible seams. In addition, on the back side of the profile there is a special selection that performs the functions of the air vent. Due to this, there is no condensation, mold and fungi on the panels.
• "American". It has the shape of an irregular rectangle. On the widest part of its groove is laid, which makes it possible to create an interesting decorative effect - the boards seem to be overlapped.

• Block house. This type creates a coating that simulates the construction of a rounded log. At installation the obreshetka is used. It creates a heat and noise insulating surface that is not subject to splitting or cracking.
• "Fink". This species has an oval or rounded shape.

Each of these types of lining is in own way good, everyone is popular. But even the most beautiful coating can get bored and cause a desire, if not to change it, then at least to update. For this purpose, various dye compositions, varnishes, impregnations and so on are used. Wooden wall paneling is often covered with such substances in order to prolong its service life, emphasize or, on the contrary, hide the structure of natural wood.

For painting the wall paneling, you can use various options for coloring compositions. Of course, if the work will be carried out inside the premises, it is better to stay on those compositions that do not have a strong smell.

The modern market offers a wide range of different colors:

1. Oily. It is a recognized leader among all decorative coatings. Due to the deep penetration inside the surface, the result is reliable protection. This type of paint provides a good coating that does not lose its attractiveness for a long time. Among the shortcomings can be noted the presence of a sharp specific smell and the duration of drying. This type of paint is best used outdoors, outside. For interior decoration, it is not too suitable.
2. Acrylic paints. They dry quickly, have no pungent odor, retain their original color for a long time, and are resistant to moisture. Well suited precisely for interior work.
3. Acrylic akvalak. One of the best ways to design a wall paneling. It is an environmentally friendly material that provides a durable and durable coating.
4. Alkyd varnish. It dries long, it is easily flammable. But insensitive to moisture and temperature extremes.
5. Glaze. Emphasizes the natural structure of wood. If you add color to it, you can get a color coating.
6. Opaque enamel. Optimal for country buildings.Due to the formation of a dense layer, it provides good protection against mechanical impact, damage, and also hides existing defects.

Often, the lining is covered with good old water-based paint. It is odorless, easy to apply, dries quickly. It is optimal for finishing indoors. The lining covered by it gets pleasant white color, at the same time the structure of a tree is not completely hidden.

To protect against moisture and mold lining impregnated with oil. The surface treated in this way acquires haze, the wood structure is distinguished more clearly.

Interesting samples can be obtained by coating with acrylic paint. The undeniable advantages of this material allowed him to gain popularity among other decorative coatings. By itself, this paint retains the original color for quite a long time, but if you additionally treat the surface with varnish, its service life will increase.

Choosing the type of paint, you should pay attention not only to its value. Its technical characteristics are much more important - durability, color saturation, resistance to fading, moisture, temperature extremes.The presence or absence of a strong odor is important if the work will be carried out indoors.

Paint for outdoor work should be insensitive to climatic, weather conditions, to provide a sufficiently dense and reliable coverage. In this case, the "aroma" of paint is of secondary importance.

The choice of color when painting the wall paneling is determined by the style of the interior, its color scheme, as well as the taste of the owners of the house.

Light and smooth surface is not like everyone. Someone wants to bring the brightness in the interior, someone, on the contrary, to set it off with dark patches. Someone will emphasize the structure of natural wood, someone decides to completely hide it. All this is a matter of taste.

Often when painting lining used white. Bleached wood, especially oak, creates a special atmosphere in the house. Light shades visually expand the space, “lift” it, add air and space. Therefore, rooms with a small area, most often made out in bright colors.

In combination with the structure of the tree, the effect is really great. Such a surface will fit into any style, it will be in harmony with almost any environment and color.A translucent paint that does not hide, but emphasizes the wooden texture and gives a white tint to the material itself - a good option to slightly refresh, update the interior without major changes.

To create a bright color accent, you can use acrylic or oil paints. They offer a fairly wide range of shades - from discreet muted to flashy-bright.

Another option to give color to the wall paneling is to use color schemes. They can be added to water-based paint, glaze, and get a variety of shades of any degree of saturation. With proper mixing of several tones, you can get a rather interesting complex shade that will fit perfectly into this interior. But in order not to spoil the whole paint-base (to which colors will be added), it is better to pour a little into a separate container and try there.

In general, painted lining itself creates an interesting effect in the interior, especially when the structure of the tree remains clearly visible. No wonder such a solution is increasingly found in very different designs, in different colors and in different styles.

Many lining is perceived as an element of the dacha interior. However, in urban apartments, it may be quite appropriate. Classic or loft, Provence or Rustic - correctly decorated lining will look harmonious in almost any style.

Painted in dark, even black with preserved wood structure, it will be a worthy addition to the loft style, somewhat shading off its industrial character and adding comfort to it. White lining will also look advantageous in this interior.

The material of light colors will organically fit into the classic interior with its elegance and discreet chic.

As for Provence, in its graceful simplicity, lining itself just asks. Just varnished, light colored stain, painted white or lavender - it will be a great addition to the interior.

At the same time, it is not at all necessary to decorate with clapboard all surfaces from floor to ceiling, as in a country house. In a country house such a reception would be appropriate, but in a city apartment it is unlikely. Yes, and bring this idea to life will be quite difficult.

With the help of clapboard, you can create a spectacular semi-antique interior. To do this, it can be covered with stain, simple or craical ("aged", creating a seededly cracked coating) varnish. The clapboard processed in this way can be sheathed all or one wall in the room.

Allocation of one wall in the room is a popular method of zoning space. This method is especially good when decorating small areas.

If we are talking about the bedroom, you can select the headboard and a part of the ceiling above it, emphasizing the sleeping area. Shades are better to choose calm, relaxing, appropriate to the nature and purpose of the room.

In the office so you can arrange a work area. For this purpose, suitable lining non-striking tones that will not distract attention. Dark or light shade to choose - depends on the preferences of the owner of the office. Most importantly, it should not distract attention and have a relaxing effect. The office is not a bedroom, it is important to tune in to the working mode, concentrate, and everything - including the color scheme - should contribute to this.

The living room provides the greatest scope for fantasy.Here you can embody almost any ideas, the main thing is to follow the general rules of composition and make sure that the interior is harmonious, does not constitute an “opposition” to the design of all the other rooms. In the decoration of the living room you can use both bright and pastel colors, dark or light shades, accentuated or completely hidden wood structure, any finishing materials.

For a living room in a loft style, for example, black painted or whitened lining is well suited. The main shades of this stylistic direction are black and white, the rest are present only as accents, diluting the monochrome interior, adding a highlight to it. Therefore, if we are talking about the design of the walls in the room, it is better to focus on these shades. If it is planned to assemble a screen, panel, or some other structure recognized to perform purely decorative functions and not differing in large size, it is possible to use bright colors.

A classic-style living room will require discreet colors. Well suited natural texture of wood, accentuated stain, varnish or bleach.

The kitchen decorated with wood looks, of course, status and attractive. But the material itself in this case needs protection from external factors - humidity, elevated temperatures, possible exposure to chemicals and mechanical damage. The same goes for the bathroom. Here, especially close attention should be paid to protection from moisture.

To lining lasted as long as possible, it is covered with special protective compounds.

It may be:

1. Fire retardant. The composition is absorbed into the very structure of the wood and increases its fire resistance.
2. Bactericidal composition. Prevents mold, mildew and similar formations. It also includes components that deter pests.
3. Impregnation. Protects against fungi, pests, parasites. May change the color of the tree. The most popular example is the stain.
4. Linseed oil. The tree he treated becomes insensitive to moisture and damage by a fungus, its structure becomes more pronounced, the material itself becomes dull.
5. Lyphea. The once most popular wood treatment product is losing its relevance.The reason is in the technical characteristics: after a rather short time it darkens and becomes sticky.
6. Bleach. Most often, such compounds are used to remove stains from the surface of the tree. It is applied to the stain (or other defect), stand for a certain time and washed off.
7. Primer. Thanks to it, the decorative coating applied on top lasts longer and sets better with the surface. In addition, it protects the wood from mechanical damage.
8. Wax based formulations. They are quite effective protective means due to the dense layer formed on the surface of the material being processed. The tree becomes moisture resistant and insensitive to mechanical influences. To ensure that the coating is uniform, it is better to pre-prime the surface.

In order for the coating to last long and provide the necessary protection, the tree must be properly prepared for application. The first step is to clean the dirt. This procedure will require a little - only water, in which soda is diluted (150 grams per 5 liters).If the tree has already been painted, you will need to remove the paint with a special tool.

After cleaning, you can proceed to grinding. Ordinary pumice stone or sandpaper works well for this. To make it easier to sand, it is better to carefully go through each plate separately, rather than trying to treat the entire surface.

Next - primer. After the “waste products” - fine wood dust, chips, are removed from the polished lining, you can start priming.

After that, the decorative coating line is already coming. It is possible to paint lining with a brush, roller or spray gun. To paint was done with high quality, without undrawn places, it is better to use brushes of various thickness: small gaps, gaps will be small, and the main area will be wide. Again, it is better to paint in stages, moving from one plank to another.

The spray gun will provide a higher speed, but paint consumption will increase. In addition, it will fall not only on the prepared surface, but also on nearby objects.

The lining covered with a decorative structure can be varnished. Then she will get a beautiful shine, increase its service life and resistance to damage. Varnishing is not afraid of moisture, so it can be used even in such areas as the kitchen or bathroom.

Wood is used in many styles. Somewhere as an element of decor, somewhere - as the main material of decoration and decoration. Therefore, the lining will be appropriate inside a variety of interiors.

Painted in different colors - one board of one shade, another - of another, will create a cheerful, cheerful mood at home. Such a technique can be used in the nursery or living room, where such unusual and bright solutions are appropriate. For a bedroom or study, such a design is hardly suitable - a different atmosphere is needed, which helps either to relax and rest, or to tune in to the working mood.

Generally, painting is a common way to decorate the lining and a way to fit it into almost any interior.A dark or categorically white suit for a loft, rustic or any other restrained-serious interior.

For refined classics, joyful country or gentle Provence, it is good to use lining covered with wood stain of light shades, whitewashed, with an emphasized structure of natural wood.

Bright, catchy tones, perhaps even hiding the texture of wood, can be used in the decoration of the room in the style of disco or in the spirit of the 60-70s. A wall decorated in this way (or a separate part of it) will be a spectacular accent that attracts attention immediately upon entering a room.
