Modern wall decoration
Wall decoration takes the most time. After the walls were plastered, and wires were carried out to the sockets and switches, you need to choose a finish coating. Modern finish coatings include: wallpaper gluing, painting walls, applying decorative plaster and micro -cement, installation of ceramic tiles and decorative panels. Depending on the material, the type of finishing work will also change.
Wallpaper gluing
The wallpaper is glued after the last layer of putty was applied to the walls. Before gluing wallpaper, the walls are grinded so that they become smooth, without roughness.
After that, a primer layer is applied to them – so the wallpaper will be better to hold on. Next, the process of gluing begins. On the wall should draw vertical markings, and glue the wallpaper strictly on it. So the canvas will not shift, and the joints will be even. It is better to cut strips of wallpaper with a margin of a couple of centimeters, because the height of the room in different places may vary.
If bubbles appear in the process of gluing, they need to be smoothed out with a roller. It is better to smear all joints with a colorless sealant. After gluing wallpaper, it is important to close the room and prevent drafts.
There are also wallpaper for painting. They are glued to the wall, and then covered with paint. Such wallpapers can be glued to the walls with flaws to hide them. Their surface can be smooth or textured. The paint is applied to the wallpaper with a roller.
Wall painting
You can start painting only after the walls are prepared and all flaws will be prepared and removed. Any roughness, recesses and bumps will be clearly visible on the painted wall.
The process of painting walls itself, lighter and faster than gluing wallpaper. The paint is evenly applied to the wall with a roller. After the first layer of paint, the surface is polished from drones and roughness and apply another 2 layers. The walls in the apartment are completely dry in 2-4 hours.
Application of decorative plaster and micro -cement
Decorative plaster is applied to well -prepared, smooth walls. The plaster is applied evenly with a spatula. The process is complex and requires high qualifications of the master. After applying the plaster, textured patterns and lines appear on the wall. After that, the plaster is sometimes additionally covered with varnish.
Micro -cement is applied in the same way as decorative plaster. The surface is uniform and velvet to the touch.
Laying of ceramic tiles
Porcelain stoneware is used as a finish not only on the floor, but also on the walls of the apartment. With it, you can decorate the surface in the living room or in the kitchen. Porcelain stoneware is glued to the wall using cement glue. To do this, glue is applied to the wall with a thin layer. After that, it is smooth with a special spatula and porcelain tile is mounted on it. The process is complex and requires special skills. The glue dries for about a day.
Installation of decorative panels
Decorative panels can be mounted on a wall with finish and black trim. Panels come from wood or soft from polyurethane. They are mounted to the wall with self -tapping screws.
Recommendations for choosing modern wall decoration
Wall decoration materials must be selected for specific tasks and conditions.
If a person likes to often change the interior in the apartment, then paint is a great solution. With its help, you can easily and quickly change the color of the walls yourself.
An expensive and durable option is a washing latex paint. More budget – washing water -based paint.
High -quality paint is not afraid of humidity. If the paint faded or scuffs and scratches appeared on the walls, they can easily be tinted. This is much easier than, for example, to overlap wallpaper if complex spots or scratches have appeared on them.
Wallpaper is a more budgetary and popular option, because they do not need perfect preparation of walls. It is better to use vinyl wallpaper. They, in comparison with others, are the most moisture resistant, so they can be washed with a brush. Also, vinyl wallpaper fades less in the sun.
Decorative plaster and cement can be used in wet and unheated rooms of the apartment. It can be a bathroom or an open balcony. If the decorative plaster and micro -cement is varnished on top, it will be easier to wash.
Decorative panels are suitable for wall decoration in the living room or bedroom. Wooden panels have a natural base, and polyurethane panels are soft, they are perfect for the bedroom.
It is also important to pay attention to the quality and cost of materials. For example, if the budget is limited, you should not use expensive coatings in the apartment, such as a micro -cement and decorative plaster. If you save on these materials, the decoration in the apartment will turn out to be bad. It is better to make high -quality paint on the walls than a cheap micro -cement at the same price.
