Do you look at your walls and feel like something is missing? Blank, monotonous walls can make any space feel unfinished. The solution is simpler than you think. Wood wall panels are a great addition to your interior that offer multiple benefits, from quick and striking wall decoration to improving the acoustics of a room.

Forget about complicated and time-consuming work. In this guide, we bring you 5 concrete ideas on how to use wall coverings to complete your walls and interior with easy installation.

1. Highlight the TV wall as the centerpiece of the living room

The space around the TV is often unused and cluttered with cables. By placing the panel on the wall behind the TV, you will not only visually "anchor" that part of the room, but also get a practical solution for hiding installations.

  • How to do it: Cover the entire wall or just a section of the wall behind the TV. The panels create a clean, organized backdrop.
  • Panel suggestion: tamni orah or crni hrast are great for this part of the space because they create a good contrast with the screen, are not eye-catching, and give depth to the entire space.

2. Create a unique headboard in your bedroom

A bed without a headboard can feel unfinished. Instead of buying massive furniture, use panels to create a visually interesting and functional headboard that stretches from edge to edge of the bed, or even from wall to wall.

  • How to do it: Measure the width of the bed and place the panels vertically behind it, from the floor to a height that suits you.
  • Panel suggestion: Lighter tones like hrasta or sivog hrasta will bring a light texture without weighing down a room intended for relaxation.

3. Create a durable and playful wall in the children's room

Walls in children's rooms often take a beating, from playing to drawing. Wood panels are an extremely resistant and long-lasting solution that protects the wall while also serving as a great base for decoration.

  • How to do it: Line the wall next to which the children play the most or the wall next to the bed. You can easily mount bookshelves, hangers or toy organizers on the panels, thus creating a functional and tidy space.
  • Panel suggestion: Hrast is the perfect choice for a child's room. Its light color and resistant structure make the space bright and ready for all the challenges of growing up.

4. Define your home office space

Working from home has become everyday, and a professional background for video calls is essential. Instead of artificial backgrounds, a paneled wall behind your desk provides a neat and professional look.

  • How to do it: Place the panels on the wall behind the monitor. This visually separates your work corner from the rest of the room.
  • Panel suggestion: Crni hrast or tamni orah offer a neutral and calming backdrop that won't be distracting during meetings.

Turn your enclosed patio into a year-round oasis

Enclosed terraces or conservatories can sometimes feel cold and detached from the rest of the home. Cladding a key wall with panels will add natural texture and connect the space to the surrounding nature, creating the perfect place to relax all year round.

  • How to do it: Choose a wall that is most exposed to the view or the one you plan to place a seating area against. The paneling will serve as a warm and interesting backdrop for armchairs and plants.
  • Panel suggestion: Hrast is an ideal choice for this type of space. Its light and natural color blends in beautifully with spaces with lots of daylight and greenery, creating a sense of peace and connection with the outside environment.
