Leaving your walls completely blank can affect the design of your home. Many people find it boring and unappealing. Thankfully, there are many interior wall design ideas you can choose for the walls that will enhance the beauty of the space. However, it is important that you pay attention to the finish. Whether you want to decorate your home interior or exterior, there are plenty of options available that you can consider. One of the first things you will have to keep in mind is that finishes for home exterior and interior are different. There are lots of other factors as well that should be taken into consideration before making the decision. Mentioned below are a few small details about the various wall finishes so that you can understand the differences and make the right decision for yourself:
01 of 06 Wallpaper
In the last few years, wallpapers have received immense popularity. You will find them in many modern home interior designs. One of the biggest benefits of choosing wallpaper is that the installation process is very easy and quick. Moreover, you can easily find wallpapers in many designs, colours, and patterns. This will allow you to choose options that complement the look of the interiors. Further, it is better to choose wallpapers if you want a cost-efficient option. Although wallpapers may cost you more initially, they will last a very long period of time. Hence, you do not have to replace them. Moreover, wallpapers require very little maintenance. However, you cannot choose wallpapers in areas that stay exposed to moisture. Moisture can degrade the sticking capacity of the adhesive.
02 of 06 Wood panelling
Besides wallpapers, wood panelling has become very popular in Indian homes as well. One of the biggest reasons behind its popularity is the appealing and luxurious look it adds to your interior wall design. As the name suggests, wood panels are installed on the wall. You can easily find them in various designs. Plywood and wood covered with veneer or laminate are common options that most homeowners choose for interiors. However, you must remember that it will cost you more money than other finishes. Hence, people looking for budget-friendly options generally do not prefer wood panelling. Also, wood panelling requires more maintenance. If you do not have time to clean and take care of it, opt for other options.
03 of 06 Tile cladding
When considering finishes for your wall, you cannot forget about tile cladding. Tiles are preferred in both residential and commercial home interior designs because of their benefits. Its insane durability and sturdiness make it a preferred choice. They can easily last very long and do not damage easily. Moreover, cleaning tiles is very easy. You can get stain-resistant tiles that are easy to maintain and stay as good as new for years. If you accidentally ever drop something on the tiles, you can get rid of the stain just by wiping the surface with a wet piece of cloth immediately. Further, you get many choices when you choose tile cladding for your home walls. Granite, marble, glazed tiles, and vitrified tiles are a few commonly used options for tile cladding. Each option has a different look and feel. Also, the prices of the materials differ hugely. Make your decision after thoroughly considering every factor.
04 of 06 Pebble finish
A pebble finish is not something you find in homes very commonly. However, it is a simple yet attractive finish that you can consider for your wall decor. As the name suggests, the finish is made using small pebbles. They are pasted on the wall using cement mortar as an adhesive. However, this type of wall finish is not used in interiors. You will commonly find them in exterior facades. Experts use this finish in waterfalls for a nice flowing effect. They are perfect for pools as well.
05 of 06 Coral finish
Just like the pebble finish, the coral finish is popular in exteriors. This type of finish is quite similar to plaster of paris finish and gypsum plaster finish used in home interiors. However, the surface of the coral finish is a little rough and edgy compared to them. You can give the surface a luxe and sumptuous feel with this option.
06 of 06 Sand textured finish
If you want to add more texture to your home interiors and enhance the aesthetic beauty of the space, you can consider opting for the sand textured finish. By adding fine texture to the walls, you create any room visually more appealing. However, many people do not like choosing this wall finish for their interiors because the grains come out. As a result, the look of the surface diminishes over time. Commonly, experts use this wall finish for ceilings.
