Ideas for cladding walls

Cover walls

All the walls of our home are an important point because we always say that they are like real canvases that need to be cared for and that they contribute a lot to the decoration. In this case we find various ideas to cover walls that may be of interest to the home.

Covering walls can be a great idea since it offers us different tones, materials and finishes so that the wall becomes something totally different. If you want to give your walls some personality, we suggest that you enjoy these interesting wall tiles.

Stone cladding

Stone for the walls

One of the most elegant ideas that we can see for our walls is to use a stone cladding. It makes the walls look like they were created from this material that is so durable but will only be a cladding. It is usually used in outdoor areas to give it a more elegant look to our home or a rustic touch although they are not so common inside the house. Inside you can see the walls covered with stone in areas such as the fireplace or in a single wall to give a more rustic look to our home. The stone may finally provide a certain cold touch that we will have to counteract with textiles and beautiful furniture.

Veneer with bricks

Cladding walls with bricks

The bricks are the other coating that we usually see in houses and that can completely modify the appearance of a wall. Cladding with bricks is a great idea, since it is a cladding that speaks of a more rustic style. On many occasions it is the ideal coating to create an industrial-type environment, since this style was inspired by industrial touches of all kinds, with brick walls included. If you do not want the environment to seem too dark you can cover with brick but paint it white or with a coating in light tones.

Wood walls for more warmth

Wood on the walls

The wood is wore years ago as a wallcovering because it is a material that provides warmth but also has other advantages. Wood insulates from the cold and also makes outside sounds less disturbing, so it is perfect for walls. Nowadays, not all the walls are covered with wood, but we can cover a part of them. Some people line the lower half of the walls with wood and also paint this wood in white tones to avoid that all that color of the wood makes the spaces seem to have little light. With these tricks we can use wood on the walls to cover without reducing the light.

Concrete for the walls

Cover walls with concrete

Concrete can be a good way to cover the walls. It is a strong and resistant material that also looks good giving a modern look to spaces. We can cover our walls with concrete so that everything has an industrial and modern touch, with gray tones. There are also those who decide to put this concrete only in a room or on a wall to put that special and different touch.

Coat with marble

Coat with marble is a good idea but the drawback that it can have is that marble is an expensive material that needs certain care, so most of the time we do not choose it for our walls. In addition, it may not be too warm but it does add elegance to all the spaces in the house. The decision to cover something with marble must be very thoughtful, as it has a cost, but the result can be very original and special.

Mix textures

We do not always want to cover all the walls with a certain material, since there are many to choose from. So sometimes it is better to mix textures, to have very special walls. For example, we mean putting a little wood and mixing it with stone on another wall or leaving the walls painted and putting only one part of these materials. The mixture can make us not tire of coated walls so quickly.

Dare with mirrors

Mirrors are other candidates for cladding a wall. Although it is not so common, there are those who can choose coat an area with mirrors. It multiplies the light and makes the spaces seem much larger, so it can be perfect for a place like a dressing room where we will also have an area to see each other.

Natural walls with plants

Plants on the walls

This idea is not exactly a siding but it can look like it is. We mean the walls where you are add natural plants to create a vertical garden, an idea that we see more and more in urban environments. These plants add quality of life and improve the air we breathe, but the idea is also very original and special.
