Wall Panelling
architectural integrity
Decorative wall panels in Sydney can fundamentally change an interior; they add architectural integrity and enhance existing design elements. Executed well, they create rhythm and warmth and set the primary tone of an interiors architectural structure. Made up of various components, including skirting boards, skirting blocks, architraves, stiles, rails and dado rails, if designed correctly, wall panelling is capable of manipulating scale and proportion, generating atmosphere and an indulgent and sophisticated sensitivity. Creative design can transform an interior to enrich and inspire but also, add value to our treasured homes.
aesthetic factors
As well as anchoring a design scheme, decorative wall panels in Sydney increase character, spark interest and are a dependable method of creating divergence within a space. Whether through materiality, tone or texture,
Groth & Sons offer individual design and decorating options. There are also numerous ways of using materiality to lift your design game. This could be the use of stretched fabric panels above the wainscoting to generate richness and warmth and provide a degree of soundproofing and thermal insulation. Wainscot panelling also works well with contrasting colourways,
with the use of wallpaper or other decorative paint finishes.
all architectural styles
In older houses, this is also a reliable way of disguising any visual imperfections within the building’s structure, which may result from rising dampness, lateral dampness, or the building’s movement over time. Similar aesthetics may be achieved through wallpapering or decorative painting and glazing techniques. Suppose you’ve decided to join the property ladder in Sydney. In that case, this can prove to be all the difference, as the kind of imperfections in aesthetics we’re talking about are commonplace with Sydney’s older buildings. Wall panelling also works extremely well in more contemporary settings.
elegant ambience
Used In conjunction with a collection of artworks or photographs above, decorative wall panels in Sydney evoke a sensation of rhythm established by pattern, line, form, texture and colour. These patterns and spatial intervals are very useful design tools when it comes to transitional zones, for example, a hallway or foyer where the requirement is to induce movement inside a particular area, this is used to great effect in gallery spaces. Whether used throughout an entire building, neglected in secondary spaces, used to chair rail height or adorning a complete room, wall panelling and wainscoting offers the foundation of good interior design, it directs movement within a space, adds character, and very much adds that sense of integrity to the skeleton of a building. It can also play on those horizontal site lines which visually make the space feel longer. Used in combination with contrasting colours it brings an interior space to life, adding that sense of drama and refined, elegant ambience.
technical components
Care must be taken and consideration made to the condition of surfaces onto which the panelling is to be applied. There may be moisture barriers in place such as’ tanking’ and this must be dealt with in an appropriate manner otherwise it could lead to very costly repairs. We live in the age of the home handyman and watch every conceivable TV show explaining the latest home makeovers, and whilst this is an admirable pursuit, this really is something that needs to be carried out by specialist consultants and tradespeople. Decorative wall panels in Sydney can consist of existing skirting boards with applied panel moulding and dado rails or for a more complex and detailed aesthetic it can be designed to have a more three-dimensional quality, again advice should be sort by a trained professional as this can impede any surface that requires the need to breath
