To make a room aesthetically attractive and comfortable for living, it is necessary to perform a number of works related to its improvement and decoration. The modern construction market offers a wide selection of materials that allow you to realize any fantasies in the field of interior design. The types of interior decoration are also very different. Which option should I choose for this or that room? The answer to this question, as well as information about the characteristics of various types of finishes, can be found in our article.
Linkrust
The material was invented in the late 70s in England. It is interesting that the “father” of lincrust, Frederick Walton, also invented linoleum.
Initially, the material was used to decorate the walls of royal chambers and castles of court aristocrats. Raw materials have one unique quality - they only become stronger over time.
Linkrust is produced in rolls, like regular wallpaper. Along with its strength, it is distinguished by its extraordinary plasticity and perfectly “holds” the relief.
The ability to wash walls covered with linkrust, their majestic appearance, and environmental friendliness make the material one of the most relevant, despite the very high price and complexity of installation.
Advice! Before applying linkcrust, it is necessary to thoroughly plaster the walls. The room, the walls of which are covered with the specified raw materials, should always be warm. Linkrust becomes brittle from the cold.

Bathrooms have their own amazing trends that transform the overall appearance of such interiors and take them to the next level. Many of these trends will be revised, supplemented, retold in a different context, while others will remain with us for many years in their original version.
Marbled porcelain tiles, machiaparte effect and geometric patterns on tiles

In the photo above of the bathroom renovation from the Fundament Group of Companies you can see the machiaparte effect. Most often it is used in design with natural marble, but sometimes also in porcelain stoneware. Look at the area above the toilet and you will see that the gray veins follow each other's design in four planes, thereby creating a machiaparte effect. When using original marble, slabs are chosen, running one after another in the rock, and then sawn and turned towards each other, like the wings of a butterfly.
Another trend you can see on the floor is the insertion of metal parts (sometimes just a print) into the marble floor, creating fashionable geometric patterns in the Art Deco style.

Niches are created due to the fact that a plasterboard partition is needed for unnoticeable laying of communications. This is especially necessary for a wall-hung toilet with a built-in cistern.

Moldings, mirrors and stucco moldings, which were previously popular only in living rooms and other living rooms, are increasingly being used to decorate walls in the bathroom. Note that the French have been using these bathroom details for more than a century!
Dye
The current product market offers a wide range of different materials for painting walls:
- acrylic;
- alkyd;
- silicate;
- silicone;
- oil;
- enamel;
- water based.
Depending on the function of the room, experts recommend the following options. Moisture-resistant paints are suitable for kitchens, vapor-permeable (silicone) paints are suitable for corridors.
Water-based paints are considered the most environmentally friendly and safe. The most popular among consumers are enamel materials. Their advantages include:
- strength;
- aesthetics;
- cheapness;
- durability.
Important! You should not cover the surface of the stove with such paints. Enamel paints can be flammable!
Oil paints are used extremely rarely. This is explained by the fact that they take a long time to dry, emit harmful substances and over time can bubble along the wall.

Wood finishing
One of the fashionable design options for wall decoration is decorating a room with wood. Natural materials will bring unusual comfort and warmth to the apartment.
When choosing raw materials for finishing, you should pay attention to the following points:
- texture;
- thickness;
- structure of the material.
Experts include the following advantages of this design:
- strength;
- beauty;
- pleasant aroma;
- long service life;
- environmental cleanliness.
There are also disadvantages - the material is expensive and requires special care.
Mosaic
Mosaic tiles are a favorite in bathrooms and kitchens. It is made from a wide range of materials: for example, from natural stone, which gives the product special strength and durability, or from ceramics, glass, wood, and metal. The raw materials, of course, greatly influence the type of mosaic, its service life, as well as which styles and rooms it will suit best. The most common mosaic is on a ceramic base. It is used in bathrooms, washrooms, and also in kitchens - for example, in the work surface area. The merits of mosaic coating include, firstly, the possibility of use in niches, on ledges, and uneven surfaces. Secondly, the variety of structure and color allows you to create scenes from mosaic tiles: monochrome and colorful walls, patterned and in the form of paintings. Add to this the fact that mosaic adheres perfectly to any surface - concrete, plastered, wooden. But every finishing product has its drawbacks, and with mosaics this comes at a price. However, it is justified, because we are talking about an exclusive product that is made from natural materials and lasts 15 years or more.
Plaster
Experienced painters distinguish between two types of raw materials - ordinary and decorative. The first option is divided into three subtypes.
- Simple plaster is used when decorating utility rooms - sheds, attics, garages. Apply two layers.
- An improved version of conventional plaster is used in residential premises - apartments, offices, shops, institutions, etc. Three layers of raw material are applied.
- A special plaster is applied in several layers when decorating the walls of theaters, hotels, and museums.
Decorative type
The material has both positive and negative properties.
Note!

The advantages of decorative design include:
- aesthetics;
- strength;
- excellent sound and heat insulation qualities;
- long service life;
- wide choice of palette;
- environmental friendliness;
- wide scope for creativity.
Among the negative points are the following:
- the need for preliminary work - priming and grouting;
- rapid hardening of the mixture - you need to dilute a small amount of material in water and work at a fast pace;
- difficulty of application.
The negative aspects do not outweigh the positive qualities, but it is better to entrust the work with the material to professionals.
Options for decorative wall decoration in the interior of the house
The finishing material for the walls inside the house, which is used in relation to the overall design idea, looks unusual and beautiful. Thus, wooden lining is unlikely to be a good solution in an urban setting, and relief putty is not suitable for finishing a nursery with a small child.
- A good way to create a practical, classic bedroom, living room or dining room is to use natural wood panels. Oak, pine, maple - all the variety of options will look good;

- In the high-tech , it is best to use smooth finishing structures: textured putty, plastic, painting will look organic, in addition, designers often suggest not even hiding communications in such solutions (air ducts and pipes are exposed);

- Retro and country , on the contrary, deny the use of paint. A lining or other natural option, as well as artificial stone, would look appropriate here;

- gypsum;
- glass;
- MDF;
- bamboo;
- polyurethane.

By decorating the walls of the room with a 3D gypsum panel, in addition to a spectacular image, you will receive excellent sound insulation. No extraneous sounds from neighbors will penetrate into your premises. At the same time, neighbors will not be able to hear secret conversations in your family.
You can decorate rooms with an average level of humidity with this material, but it is advisable to pre-treat the walls with a special solution that protects the gypsum panel from moisture penetration.
Polyurethane
Stereo images made from this material are so weightless that they can be used to decorate not only the walls, but also the ceiling of the room.
For an experienced professional, decorating a room with a product with a 3D effect will not take long. But the owners want to complete the repairs as quickly as possible, which is not for nothing that people compare to a natural disaster!
In addition to the external effect, polyurethane-based panels also have a practical purpose - they perfectly hide small irregularities and minor defects in the walls.
Stone and wood
Have you decided to transform your apartment, make it more modern and spectacular? For example, we chose the loft style. You can't do without a stone here. It is better to entrust installation to professionals. The installation process is not fast, but the result will exceed all expectations. The following types of stone are used:
- natural;
- plaster;
- based on cement.
You can use a stencil technique that does not weigh down the walls.
Along with stone, wood is often used. You just need to remember that not every style can withstand such a design. If you do not know the specifics of using this material, it is better to consult with designers. Wooden beams, plywood, and recycled wood materials have recently become popular due to their naturalness and environmental friendliness. The walls will “breathe” and provide that necessary air, which is so lacking in the urban environment, often called the “concrete jungle.” Provence, Mediterranean style, eco-style welcomes such finishing. A good finishing option would be wooden slats, for example, in the Japanese style.
MDF
A special feature of panels made from this material is their complete environmental safety for human health. At the same time, they are quite heavy and this fact should be taken into account when deciding to decorate a room with MDF panels with a 3D effect. In some cases, preliminary work to strengthen the walls will be required.

Glass
Most often, such products are used when decorating kitchen premises.
An apron made of a glass panel can add a special charm to any most ordinary room.
Panels made of tempered glass can be placed at both the stove and the sink. Splashes of oil and water, high temperatures are not scary for them. The fact that they are cleaned with any detergent is also very important for housewives. The only “requirement” for 3D glass panels is that hygiene products should not contain abrasive materials that can scratch their surface.
Tips for choosing materials
When selecting, consider the following characteristics:
- Moisture resistance.
- Abrasion resistance.
- Appearance.
- Harmlessness.
- Vapor permeability.
- Heat and sound insulation.
- Method of application.
- Lifetime.
- Coating care option.
Each room has its own microclimate and it is necessary to take into account the parameters that meet the request for room decoration.
- In the bedroom and children's rooms, use natural materials that breathe, creating natural air circulation.
- In the bathroom and kitchen, choose materials with increased immunity to water, absorption of odors and mold formation, as well as the ability to be washed multiple times.
- Living rooms, hallways, and entrance areas require increased abrasion characteristics of the material. Combine materials for both aesthetic and practical purposes.
- A unique design and durable coating can be created with quite inexpensive and affordable types. In addition, there are options that are updated by repainting, which is very convenient for changing the style and reincarnating the design.
Bamboo
One hundred percent natural material. The panels have the following undoubted advantages:
- a light weight;
- elasticity;
- flexibility;
- plastic;
- absolutely environmentally friendly.
Thanks to the above properties, 3D bamboo panels can be used to decorate a room with the most unusual and exotic shapes.
Finished interiors, photos
In the modern world, facing materials are expanding their diversity with new types, offering interesting universal coatings with an unusual and attractive texture.
Finishing materials for interior walls come in a wide variety, and it is important to consider where and how to use them. Your future design is the basis for a comfortable stay and a good mood.
Wallpaper
The most common type of wall decoration. According to the type of materials from which they are made, they are divided into types with a paper, non-woven, and vinyl base. So-called liquid and exotic types of wallpaper are also available for sale. Let's take a closer look at the advantages and disadvantages of each type.
Paper base
Among the positive properties of this wallpaper, experts note its good air and moisture permeability, as well as the ability to “hide” minor wall irregularities.
Manufacturers produce paper wallpaper with a wide variety of designs and in the widest color spectrum. Extra-class wallpaper of this type is covered with a primer, and the design is applied using hand printing.
Important! You should not wallpaper the walls of rooms with high humidity with paper wallpaper. During work, you should be especially careful - wallpaper soaked in adhesive solution may tear.
Non-woven wallpaper
Initially, the material, invented in Germany, was used in the clothing industry. Now it is used to decorate the walls of premises. Non-woven wallpaper is more durable than paper wallpaper and much more moisture resistant.
Experts include the following advantages of the material:
- environmental friendliness;
- ease of operation;
- ease of separation during subsequent repairs.
Important! Do not clean with water! Before pasting, the walls must be carefully treated so that various stains do not show through the wallpaper.
Vinyl option
The most durable type of material. Both smooth and embossed models are available. In addition to increased strength, they perfectly smooth out wall unevenness, are resistant to ultraviolet rays, and can be cleaned with liquid detergents.
There is one, but very significant drawback - toxic substances are released when burned. That is why their use in public institutions is prohibited in European countries.
Liquid wallpaper
In principle, this type of wall decoration is the decorative plaster mentioned above. According to consumers and experts, there are currently not enough colors of dry mixes on the market.
Exotic types of wallpaper
Newfangled types of wall coverings include wallpaper with a quartz, cork or metallized base.
Quartz wallpaper is environmentally friendly, non-flammable, durable, does not cause allergies, and is easy to install and maintain. The main disadvantage is the high price, which is explained by the fact that they are not produced in the Russian Federation, but are imported from European countries.
Cork is a natural material that has high sound and heat insulating properties, does not attract dust and dirt, and does not require special care. By decorating the walls with cork material, you will save yourself from the appearance of fungus, mold and harmful microorganisms.
Important! Pet owners should not decorate the walls of their premises with this material. Cats and dogs will scratch such wallpaper in no time.
Metallized version - allows you to create a unique interior. In the production of wallpaper, natural paints and the best materials are used, which allows us to be sure that they are completely harmless to humans.
Types of finishing materials
The materials themselves for decorating walls inside the house have the following general classification:
- Slatted (all kinds of lining, cutting boards, PVC and MDF panels) are a convenient and inexpensive option for quickly covering a large area. Cleans well and is easy to repair. There is only one downside - wooden lining is demanding on temperature and humidity, and plastic parts are not as environmentally friendly as we would like;

- A variety of coverings (textile, vinyl or linoleum) are easy to clean, practical and quite durable, and are not as expensive as panels or panels. The downside is the need to combine with other types, since textiles, for example, collect dust and moisture well, while vinyl and linoleum will not allow the surface to “breathe” when pasted. Both options are not suitable for the bathroom or kitchen;

- Rolled polymer (wallpaper) is a method in which it is possible to imitate almost any surface. Unpretentious wallpapers with a wide choice of designs have long since occupied their niche on the market - and if you have to choose between ordinary or cork or bamboo, it is better (albeit less profitable) to choose the latter option. The paper version is the most inexpensive; in addition, paper wallpaper does not block the air exchange for the wall, which is very convenient in rooms with low levels of natural light or less-than-ideal humidity levels. This also includes silk and textile wallpapers, velor, as well as photo wallpapers that make up the picture. Disadvantages - if they are not paintable, it will not be possible to repair a separate area, you will have to re-glue everything;

- Paint coatings (acrylic, silicate or silicone paints) – there are a lot of advantages here. For starters, the paint easily repels dust, washes well, has a long service life (more than 10 years), and can be used on any type of substrate. But - it requires almost perfect alignment, otherwise any roughness will be noticeable immediately;
