The past and present of wall panels---(3)
2024.12.05
In fact, in the final analysis, being advanced and beautiful is our most real purpose for choosing wall panels.
So if we decide to install wall panels, it's either not doing it at all, or if we do it, we should do it according to good craftsmanship.
Whether it's craftsmanship or style, classical wall panels and modern wall panels are completely different. Therefore, we still need to talk about them separately from two aspects.
How can classical wall panels be installed to look good?
If you like styles such as "foreign-style" simple European, American, French retro, Nordic, etc., you can choose classical wall panels.
Don't do whole-house installation without a luxury house.
If it's not a large-sized house or luxury house with OK area and floor height, it is not recommended to install this kind of wall panel for the whole house.
First of all, classical wall panels are mostly used in castles, palaces and noble mansions. Therefore, the floor height advantage allows the lines and proportions of wall panels to be well arranged and displayed, and it looks more solemn and elegant.
Secondly, classical wall panels are very particular about structure and proportion. The earliest columns, including the column body, column cornice, and column base, all have proportion requirements, and there are also proportion requirements with the diameter of the column.
Later, for the top line, waist line, skirting line, and between the low wall panel and the high wall panel, a three-part symmetrical proportion is also emphasized.
In modern decoration, people prefer a minimalist style. Also due to the limitation of floor height, most people have given up the top line and waist line.
Therefore, for small low-rise units, the proportion of wall panels for the whole house cannot be stretched, losing the due tension and beauty. This is not recommended here.
For large-sized units that want to achieve an atmospheric and luxurious decoration effect, more reference should be made to some classic cases abroad, and professional designers should be invited.
However, it should be noted that one cannot take European royal families or palaces as references. Complicated and gorgeous decorations no longer conform to the aesthetics of modern people!
Some so-called high-end decoration designs in our country have overturned in this way!
Partial space is very outstanding.
If it can't be installed throughout the house, is an ordinary residence out of touch with classical wall panels?
Not necessarily. It can be used in partial spaces, such as the living room, TV, and sofa background walls, the background walls of bedrooms, or the wall decorations of dining rooms.
Decorate the entire wall in the bedroom
If the budget is still limited and you don't want to take up space, you can directly use plaster lines or solid wood and PU lines instead to create an antique wall panel texture.
Half-wall wainscoting is very versatile
For half-wall wall panels (wainscoting), part of the wall panel reaches the floor, with blank space above or combined with latex paint, wallpaper, etc. The seam is edged with a waistline to achieve unified styling.
Different matching methods result in different styles. European, American, French modern, and Nordic retro styles are all very common and relatively versatile.
Compared to full-wall wall panels, wainscoting is not inferior at all when used in living rooms and bedrooms. It saves budget and is full of style.
It is also widely used in space. Using it in the living room, bedroom, entrance area, and duplex staircase is a good idea. Wainscoting is relatively friendly to many families doing decoration and even small-sized apartments.
Under normal circumstances, the height of the wainscoting is left blank according to one-third of the floor height. According to the floor height of about 3 meters in Chinese residences, the height of the wainscoting is between 90 and 120 centimeters, which has the best visual effect.
But this is not a 100% law. If the floor height is low or the room is too small, the height of the wainscoting can be appropriately reduced, or the height of the wainscoting can be increased according to the design.
However, if complex ceiling has been done or the floor height is too low, it is better to give up wainscoting.
Hollow wall panels are easy to fail
Different from ordinary full wall panels and wainscoting, the position of the core board of hollow wall panels usually does not have wood veneer. Only the frame and beadings of the wall panel are there, and multiple other decorative materials are combined in the middle.
However, hollow wall panels require a strong sense of design and structural combination. If not done well, it is the most likely negative example to fail. Because the choice and combination of colors, lines and even furniture are different, the effects are completely different.
