Today, there are many who want to live in a house made of wood. Such a structure is attractive with a special style and unusual charm. Wooden houses, the interior of which must be carefully considered, will please you with comfort for many years. Remember that the highlight of this interior will be wood with its unique texture, smell, soft and warm energy. Therefore, try to leave the wooden surfaces in your home as pristine as possible. It is better to abandon the use of wallpaper, plaster, false panels, drywall and other finishing materials that can hide the beauty and nobility of natural wood.
Natural stone, which is most often used fragmentary, is perfectly combined with it. An interesting combination with cork, bamboo, mat, rough linen textiles. Such materials will decorate wooden houses. The interior inside is perfectly complemented by wool, genuine leather, skins. They will give the home originality and respectability.
Some design guidelines
A Finnish wooden house or a timber structure in itself is so interesting that it practically does not need a design. However, there are still some recommendations that will help turn your home into a real paradise.
As mentioned earlier, artificial materials are undesirable in a wooden house. Therefore, if you plan to curtains on the windows, it is better to choose silk or linen. In addition, do not mix different styles. Each of us dreams that the house will always be warm and cozy, so that it is always pleasant to come into it. Therefore, the interior interior should be given special attention. In the rooms, everything should be placed so that it is convenient to meet guests, relax, spend evenings with relatives.
Making the living room
As a rule, this is the largest and brightest room in the house. This is where repairs usually begin. The interior of a living room in a wooden house depends on the style you choose. If the structure is new, then you should not touch the walls, it is enough to cover them with varnish. But if surface treatment is necessary, it is better to use natural wood. Fortunately, today stores offer their customers a wide selection of natural decoration materials. Golden nut and oak are very popular among them. The ceiling can be lined with lining, and on the floor use parquet, ship or floorboard.
The living room is the hallmark of every home, so its interior should be thought through to the smallest detail. The interior of a living room in a wooden house can be chosen in several styles:
- Old Russian.
- Country.
- Vintage.
- Scandinavian.
These styles are good in that they preserve the natural beauty of natural wood as much as possible. It is advisable to use light-colored furniture. The interior of a wooden house with a fireplace is certainly a dream of many. Indeed, it is this element of the interior that can make the atmosphere in the house romantic and elegant. If you are a lover of large spaces and well-lit rooms, then you need to use the Scandinavian style.
Slavic style house
Slavic country style is very organic in the interior design of a wooden house. It is distinguished by its colorful decor, manifested in murals, national ornaments, and tiles. Particular attention is paid to carving in this style. It is used in the manufacture of doors, table legs and chairs, other furniture, stairs. Decorative elements of the interior of the house from timber or logs are small paintings of Slavic themes, wooden panels, embroidery. To decorate the surfaces of large objects (fireplace, stairs, floor), you can use cork, stone, fractured dolomite.
Choosing textiles for upholstery of upholstered furniture, curtains, bedspreads, sofa cushions, you should choose more saturated colors that blend well with the natural texture of natural wood. I would like to add that the Slavic style is most effective for not too large rooms with low ceilings.
Scandinavian style
This design method is also good for low rooms. However, the Scandinavian interior of a wooden house has a minimum of scenery. This style is restrained and somewhat simplified. When using it, white or beige color is most often used. These colors are everywhere - in furniture, textiles, accessories. You can use the traditional Scandinavian style, or you can use the modern one. If the owners of the house prefer conservatism, then it is better for them to give preference in choosing furniture not to multifunctionality, but to solidity and grace. In this case, a combination of accessories and various small details of saturated tones with large and light interior elements is appropriate. In this style, gray and brown small accessories look attractive against the backdrop of beige walls and furniture. With a tree of light tones, cherry, turquoise and blue colors blend well. In such an interior, play of bright colors is not allowed, they should not violate the calm design, so matte and somewhat dull shades are needed.
Handicrafts, plain lights, plain paintings, tall and rough flowerpots are perfect as accessories for a Scandinavian interior.
Old Russian style, or House-hut
The interior of the house in this style is a repetition of the old Russian design of the tower or hut. A floral ornament is applied to the
wooden walls . Still life and landscapes in wooden frames look good in such an interior. It is desirable that all pieces of furniture, accessories were designed in the spirit of the time. Massive chests, benches, chests of drawers must be present in the old Russian interior.
Chalet Style
In Europe, a small rural house in the Alps is called a chalet. Its main attributes are wood and stone. The interiors of a wooden house made of timber in a chalet style must certainly include natural stone. They, for example, are faced with a fireplace. The ceiling and floor must certainly be wooden. In addition, exposed beams are installed on the ceiling. It is advisable to use aged, patina-covered furniture.
Kitchen interior in a wooden house
Surely, many will agree that the kitchen is a special room on which additional functions are assigned (except for cooking). Therefore, its design is always given special attention not only in the house, but also in the apartment. If you spend all year in wooden apartments, it is likely that very soon a large saturation of plain wood will bore you.
To prevent this from happening, design your kitchen in fusion style, which involves a combination of different directions, colors and materials.
Decorating a kitchen interior in a wooden house is not as simple a task as it might seem at first glance. In this room, temperature and humidity are not constant, so all materials used must be treated with special compounds. Let's start with the walls. If there is such an opportunity, then cover them with paint of a contrasting color, and sand. The paint is absorbed into the natural veins of the tree and emphasizes its unique texture. To design the floor, you can use stone, parquet, tiles.
Country style kitchen
Experts are sure that this style was formed first. Today, the owner of the house most often hosts the kitchen, and before this was the place where the servant “reigned”, the gentlemen’s foot didn’t step there. Therefore, for this room did not require any design refinements. The interior of a wooden house inside in a country style, in particular in the kitchen, is the pinnacle of practicality. Its obligatory attributes are many capacious drawers and spacious countertops. Today, the country style is a minimally processed natural wood, the absence of elegant and sophisticated decorations. Oak and pine are ideal for rooms in this style, you can slightly tinted. The use of aged furniture, tiles or tiles for finishing an apron is welcome.
Attic in the house
At the beginning of the nineteenth century, attics in Russia were very popular. Then, for some time, they stopped using them, but now the fashion for them is returning again, and mainly in suburban construction. The interior of the attic in a wooden house is not just a refined aristocracy, the mysterious spirit of antiquity, but also an additional living space, which is very popular among young people.
The interior of the wooden house inside should be in the same style. However, it largely depends on what functions this room will perform. Here you can place an office, library, nursery, bedroom.
But there is another important aspect that you will definitely encounter. This is the angle of the roof. If the ceiling is too low, then in addition to the bed, sofa and any low pedestals, you are unlikely to be able to place anything there. Therefore, more often these rooms are used as bedrooms. It is necessary to use the attic as much as possible. Even its lowest sections can be made to “work”. Partitions with doors are installed here, and as a result, comfortable and roomy chests of drawers for storing children's toys, seasonal items, school supplies are obtained.
We also lay the bed, or even better the frame mattress, in the lower parts of the room. It is advisable to arrange the furniture along the walls so that it does not block the windows. In this case, modular furniture will be ideal, which can be reinstalled depending on your desires.
Choose curtains for the attic
For a long time there was an opinion that for such rooms it is better to use blinds that were fixed in the upper and lower parts of the window, repeating its inclination. But today, designers have come to the conclusion that traditional curtains look great on the dormer-window. They are also fixed at the bottom to the wall or window.
You must understand that these are special buildings - wooden houses. The interior inside them is always original, because the room does not have clearly defined standards, such as an apartment, therefore, you should approach the interior design unconventionally - this is the key to success.
Loft style
The modern interior of a wooden house inside (the photo you see in this article) is quite diverse. Not too often, but a loft style is also used in the design of such a room. It allows you to combine the clarity of lines and shapes with custom materials and exclusive furniture. This option is preferred by modern people who love technological innovations. The interior of the house in this style involves large areas, huge windows, glass doors and partitions, wooden floors.
Today we talked about the fact that wooden houses are still relevant today. The interior inside, chosen according to your taste, will make the building very warm, cozy and comfortable for your family and friends.
