Interior of a wooden house: colors, materials, decor
To develop an interior of a wooden house is an interesting task for those who do not think of suburban life without being tied to nature, value eco-friendly materials, take care of family health, consider the time spent in the forest as the best rest, and the most useful air is soaked in wood volatile substances.
With thoughtful design, the interior design of a wooden house can be made in a variety of styles: from a version of an American saloon or cattle ranch to a combination of wood and stone in a chalet space or contemporary modernity, where the house looks like a spacious multi-level hut outside, like a casket with a secret hides inside technological modern design.

Wooden beams in the ceiling
The interior of a wooden house can be created in a building constructed from other materials not subject to shrinkage.
A touch of antiquity
If a folk style is chosen as a guideline for the interior, then you should pay special attention to the dominant colors, take the time to carefully study details that emphasize the “Russian spirit”. Large bleached or glazed tiled stove immerse the room in the atmosphere of a fairy tale. Due to the complexity of design calculations and the high cost of reproduction, vaulted ceilings of the historical analogue (chambers, churches, small houses) should be replaced by inclined planes that extend upward in the rooms of turrets, bay windows, and the tops of the towers.
The real work of art will be the ceiling, painted in the old Russian manner. Subtle intertwining flowers, patterns, leaves against a light or contrasting background (crimson, emerald-grass, azure), and in the children's room are the heroes of folk tales, stars and smiling celestial bodies, painted with bright natural colors and gold - these are picturesque motifs, impressions of murals of objects of ancient Russian architecture, spread out like a luxurious silk tent, from which it is impossible to look away.Such a technique is very rare, it requires the true skill of the artist, but it causes indescribable delight for everyone who sees this perfection.
Rustic fashion: basic techniques
The modern rustic style does not contain a direct and total, screaming in every detail, but a subtle hint of love for the village, manifested through the use of wood, natural fabrics, consistent with the style of colors.
Log house with fireplace
A variation of the Russian North style involves the use of a tree, as if covered with hoarfrost. Fine wood carvings, a special resinous scent that fills the rooms with an invigorating spirit - this is why a wooden house is so valued. Silver-gray, like a board ironed by time and frost, a bleached canvas of curtains and upholstery, laconic dishes of light shades - this range of materials used in the interior of a wooden house inside creates a feeling of cleanliness, restraint, laconic friendliness, fully characterizing the owners. If wooden Provence style option filled with solar warmth, the northern style can be defined as refined and cool.
In the "summer" version, the design of the wooden house is thoughtfully connected with the beginning of the last century or the time of the 60-70s. It was then that the word "cottage" acquired the meaning of an easy, creative, happy life. Lace curtains with a large pattern, bouquets of dried flowers, wildflowers in ntransparent glass or ceramic vases, collections of amulets, cast iron irons, horseshoes, samovars will add color to the interior of the house in a rustic style and all this can be done with your own hands.
The tree is dark, the tree is light
The interior of a wooden house, emphasizing the material of manufacture, is a rounded or sanded log, glued or ordinary timber, their imitation on top of the frame structure, is performed in two versions - light and dark.
In most cases, owners of timber or log houses prefer not to cover the “living” tree with leveling materials, but only to reveal the natural texture of the tree with tinted or colorless protective compounds. The palette of such compositions is extremely wide. To choose a shade that corresponds to the owner's ideas about what the house should be inside, should be, covering pieces of wood in several layers. Spruce, pine, cedar, larch, oak have a different color of wood, a light tone on a reddish cedar and gray-green oak will look different. Golden pine is most tolerant to tinting agents, gives an undistorted coloristic result.
Light dense coloring is used to give decoration elements more advantageously, but if the logs of the walls are painted in dark color with matte paint, they will begin to resemble plastic cylinders, which immediately “cheapens” the interior.
Bathroom with gray wooden walls and white ceilings.
If you purchased an old wooden house, where it is impossible to carry out restoration work and reveal the noble structure of the tree in order to emphasize the suburban atmosphere, then try to close the walls with gypsum, and then decorate them to your liking.
Windows and textiles
The windows of the wooden house offer a view of the surrounding landscape, provide the unity of man with nature, so closing them with multilayer curtain structures is sacrilege. When choosing a project, it should be tied to the terrain, oriented to the sides so that from all rooms you can observe the change of natural seasons, time of day, admire the vibrant greenery and colors of the garden. If the house is inscribed in a pine forest or stands on a hill above the bay, then the windows should be wide open to meet the beauty of the world - otherwise, why did you choose such a site?
Projects of wooden houses with floor-to-ceiling glazing, the cubic style of the Baltic design, minimalism trimmed with vertical or horizontal wood paneling from the outside - this is an opportunity to build an eco-friendly house in a modern arrangement.“Walls” of energy-saving double-glazed windows allow you to create the feeling that the owners live inside the forest, dissolving in it, receiving daily energy nourishment. Such windows require only minimal framing. It is optimal to use roller blinds with automatic drive that cover the interior from the bright sun, protect them from overheating, and decorative objects from fading, creating a cozy evening atmosphere during the white nights.
Textile interior decoration of the house is selected depending on the general tone of decoration. Deep-fold towels look good against the background of the walls, if they contrast. In a bright interior “Naive” prints (small flower, polka dots, thin stripe) look and make it possible to apply the Provence style inside a wooden house. On a bleached tree, cotton fabrics with a blue pattern are appropriate. Depending on the style and purpose of the room, it can be English roses, Dutch genre walls, Gzhel patterns, marine prints or graphic ornaments.
