Using luminaires
Whatever materials are used for the walls in an apartment or in a private house, whatever original design solutions are found, everything will be in vain if they are poorly visible. Therefore, it is very important to use elegant lighting fixtures.
However, it is not their appearance that is decisive, but the characteristics of the glow.
A cramped room should be decorated with lamps with warm bright radiation. Cool light is more acceptable in larger rooms.

Decorative accents
It was recommended to use laminate for wall decoration in rooms several years ago. But during this time it became clear that such a step is not always appropriate. Rather, it emphasizes the pursuit of austerity rather than originality of thought. In classic interiors, wood decor is much more appropriate. It can look both elegant and with a hint of closeness to nature, to rural life - depending on what motives are used.

It is possible to use elite wood species only on a limited basis, in small areas. Otherwise, the costs are prohibitive. It is easy for lovers of natural styles to save money - you just have to use saw cuts, branches and other waste material. In some cases, you can also use a natural or artificial stone with a matte or glossy surface. This option looks very attractive on accent walls.
