Country Style Wall Treatment Ideas

Written by Swanbuild | 23, October, 2018

If you've recently made the decision to build a new home, part of that process is adding the right interior choices to perfectly fit everyone's style. Here are 3 wall treatment ideas that look great in today’s country style homes.


Wainscoting

Wainscoting is a type of timber panelling used in the interior of homes. It starts at the floor and goes up to approximately 90-120cm high, depending on the overall height of your wall. While it was traditionally used for insulation and to hide imperfections in the walls, it is an enduring and classic style that is suited to today’s country style homes. It is generally painted in a different colour to the upper wall and is available in a variety of patterns and styles. Even simple wainscoting can add a stylish aesthetic to your walls.


Paintable Textured WallpapeR

Paintable wallpaper is a great way to add customised texture and patterns to create unique visual interest in a space. With paintable wallpaper you get the best of both worlds. You can add real dimension to a room by selecting a pattern and then customising the look with your personal choice of colour.


Wall Panelling

Decorative wall panelling can add warmth, texture and character to a space. Covering every wall may be too much, so a great idea is to add wall panelling to a single wall as a feature. Wood panelling can be stained, varnished or painted and the texture adds a visual interest.

It’s important to consider the type of wall treatments that you would like in your new home as they can change the overall look and ambience of a room.
