Wall panels: striking design and compromise kitchen solutions

Wall decoration is responsible for the aesthetics of the kitchen and radically alters the space without special financial investments and large-scale construction events. How to be a functional space is up to you. Among bright and neutral colors, expensive and budget materials it is permissible to choose premium textures or rely on their imitation. In this case, the color scheme will be decisive. The colorful cladding is capable of focusing all attention on yourself and distracting your eyes from the modest facades of cabinets. Elite furniture against the background of wood or stone, as well as in combinations of textures, always claims to be exclusive. Basically, the average needs are determined by affordability, quality and operational capabilities.

Everyone knows about the advantages of tiles and its decorative capabilities. Often enough to change the “apron” - and the space is completely transformed. Today, finishing materials are presented with rich potential, thanks to which the decoration task is solved "one, two."

Universal options

Cute inexpensive PVC panels are a universal option for the kitchen. With them, it is easy to support any direction and provide household comfort. Impeccable appearance, easy installation and replacement of a single segment, in case of a problem, determine its priority. So, according to tradition, the cuisine, according to Scandinavian motives, involves natural wood trim with a dominant participation of birch. In modern styling, a white background made of plastic lamellas is enough to convey stylistic authenticity in the neighborhood of the corresponding attributes.

Design in a rustic manner has two alternatives. This is the use of slats from category A - the ennobled textures of pine and aspen (eurolining) and the decorative version (blockhouse). The first option will result in an elite eco-friendly design with accurate reproduction of provence and eco-style. In the case of operation of the polymer analogue, the decorative component will not suffer at all. However, do not draw parallels between the natural energy emanating from wood and texture photocopy.

Given the color consistency of furniture bodies and solid wall panels, it is likely to get as close to the classic design as possible. In a contrasting combination of interesting textures and shades, it is realistic to create a shocking impression. The gray-white compromise is characteristic of current trends and strives for minimalism. It is impossible to imagine a modern kitchen without the participation of the brown gamut and its spectral harmony with the background, in the “collective” reflection of surfaces and household appliances, transparent glass dissolving in the light of evening illumination. A flexible combination scheme allows segmented color shifts and the opposite design. The kitchen will look very different if the graphite panels are replaced with light ones.


Manufacturers offer different versions of the facing products. Conventional laminated MDF boards are not so practical due to their hygroscopicity and unreliable protective layer. Therefore, it is undesirable for them to trim the area of ​​the "apron" and it is worth choosing a compromise option. Veneered MDF is a modified version of decent quality. Of course, this is not a boiserie from a single canvas, without which English classics are unthinkable, but the prestigious look allows you to achieve high results.

The negative characteristics do not apply to the chipboard, in which the thickness of the fixing coating allows you to actively use in the decoration. To exclude the possibility of water penetration at the junction, they are additionally treated with a special composition.

HDF products are often called hardboard, which is not entirely true. The technology is based on joining sheets on a eucalyptus base under a hot press followed by lamination. The result of the process is a durable 4 mm canvas, which is an excellent option for the kitchen. The identical “apron” finish and countertops will set the theme. The difference in tone or semitone in the materialization on the walls looks amazing.

Laminate is successfully used not only as a floor covering. Lamellas based on granite chips with the inclusion of vinyl and silver ions (Nano Silver technology) are perfect in quality characteristics and ideal in quality. Dense adhesion leaves no chance of moisture penetration. Profile edging with metal corners of the ends can overlap with the identical finish of the corners of the nut, which ultimately integrates the design. A variant with fragmented duplication of material on furniture is possible. Dark wood and walnut color impress with the end result.

On the way to exclusive

Ceremonies will give light walls and volumetric texture. If you use a smooth and corrugated finish in one perimeter, the dominant and peripheral parts will form. Due to the relief pattern in the dining area, it will be possible to create atypical decor and zoning the space. Accompanied by light and attributes, the kitchen will radically change.

Loft design seeks to demonstrate the texture features of building materials. The exposed brick wall next to the plastic panels became accented. The design is based on the symmetry of lines and sharp transitions. The floorboards are laid parallel to both walls and the resulting horizontal perpendicular forms an interesting visual effect. Due to this technique, the side vertical looks remotely.

The panel with a picture is a fashionable trend in the home kitchen. Spherical white prints, woven in a certain sequence, on a green background create volume, which makes the wall dominant. In combination of laminated facades with structural expressiveness of wood, the kitchen looks stylish.

Color, and the vibrations emanating from it, can both stimulate and soothe. Volumetric patterns also create interesting sensations. It is enough to make one wall picturesque - and the complex design will “sound” differently. In the photo below, transverse flowing lines are identified with sand dunes or a light sea breeze. Sensations are created depending on the chosen theme and color tack. A drawing on the floor in yellow-sand tones, curly arbitrary lines, the color of azure on the walls and the entourage created, favor tea drinking on the coast in a summer cafe. If light relief panels prefer blue ones, the atmosphere will be filled with pleasant coolness.

Glass expensive sheets out of competition in all respects. They are faced with the entire perimeter or used in place of the "apron" above the desktop. Glass can be transparent and smooth, corrugated and frosted. The panels consist of 3 layers - triplex hardened by a special technology, which ultimately reliably protects the paint from fading, and the wall from environmental aggression. Beautiful wallpapers, textiles are pasted under it, full-length plots, posters, photo frames are inserted. Often used photo printing capabilities, art hand painting. The transparent surface may be sandblasted. With such a creative, it is easy to get a unique design.

Stones are increasingly found in decoration. Popular solutions are acrylic plates and a number of artificial imitations. A bright gallery of textures and colors meets any expectation. Light weight, attractive appearance literally mesmerize the look. In the list of advantages, one minus is the high price. Complete with a countertop, the cladding looks great. In this case, a seamless connection forms a monolithic surface. If you allow in such a way to execute a sink, a bar counter and a windowsill - a luxurious finish will delight for decades. Submit the right to experiment, surprising yourself and your guests!
