Glossy walls for the living room in the interior

The living room is the center of the apartment, where friends and close people gather, therefore, the choice of furniture for this room must be treated with special attention. Glossy walls are a modern type of furniture that has not lost its traditional characteristics and qualities.

A glossy wall, like any furniture, has both positive and negative characteristics.

The advantages of this furniture include the following features.

• Presentable appearance. Thanks to its gloss, the wall creates a cozy and at the same time aristocratic atmosphere in the room;
• Versatility and functionality. This type will suit any room and will look organic, while high functional qualities are not lost;
• Visually increases the area of ​​the room by reflecting natural and artificial light;
• Large selection of colors and shapes;
• Harmonious combination with many interior styles. The wall is suitable for both a classic-style living room and a high-tech room;
• Relatively simple surface care, you just need to purchase a special tool;
• The ability to manufacture according to individual parameters;
• Availability by price parameters.

The disadvantages include several factors.

• The surface of the furniture does not tolerate mechanical stress and aggressive cleaning agents. If they are used, the surface will lose its original appearance, which is problematic to restore;
• Long-term exposure to sunlight in some cases can lead to surface discoloration;
• Requires constant care. When purchasing such furniture, it is worth remembering that all surface imperfections in the form of fingerprints, dust, water stains are clearly visible on the gloss. Therefore, constant wiping of furniture is necessary to maintain a presentable appearance.

In furniture, the main indicator of strength is the material used. For a glossy wall, chipboard and MDF are most often used; plastic panels can also be taken as a basis.

The demand for wood-based panels is explained by the fact that they have the following qualities.

• Availability;
• The ability to execute any design ideas;
• Easy and quick assembly and disassembly.

Despite the general qualities, these materials also have differences.

Particleboard is a cheaper raw material, but it is easily damaged by even minor scratches.

MDF, on the contrary, is a more durable and practical material that is less sensitive to mechanical stress. This plate is also resistant to moisture, sun and temperature drops.

Plastic is a lighter material that is also resistant to temperature extremes and damage. The disadvantage of such models is the instability to sunlight, so over time, the color of the surface may fade.

When choosing furniture, an important point is the color scheme. This is especially true for a glossy surface, as it has the ability to transform colors.

So, glossy black models seem to be brighter, so they need to be combined with details of a matte surface. At the same time, they give the interior a restrained but rich look.

White walls are a classic type of furniture that requires careful selection to the design of the room. An excess of white gloss in one room can create a cold and uncomfortable atmosphere.

Today, metallic and wenge-colored walls have become popular. The latter option will add nobility to the room and attract attention. Metallic will fit well into modern interior styles and emphasize the functionality of the room.

The walls of beige and ivory look gentle. They will be able to draw attention to themselves, bring beauty and originality to the room. But it is worth remembering that beige reflects any light well, and glare does not allow you to create a romantic twilight. It is better to install such furniture away from natural light.

The glossy wall can fit into the interior of any living room, as it has several varieties.

• Classic (traditional) furniture;
• Modular wall;
• Mini wall;
• Combined furniture.

A traditional wall will be a great addition, and sometimes the main element of a classic-style living room. For such a room, a wenge or ivory wall is suitable. Clean and straight lines, functional shelves are the characteristic features of such furniture.

The modular model is more modern and sophisticated. It assumes several modules, blocks that can be used together and separately. This ability greatly facilitates the choice and allows you to purchase only the furniture you need. The main colors of the modular walls are white and black. Sometimes you can find a two-sided model. The corner modular model occupies a special place. She is one of the practical options.

A mini-wall will be an excellent option for a small apartment. At the same time, several shelves or modules will allow you to store the necessary things. A miniature version of furniture, as a rule, is installed under a TV or other household appliances.

The combined version of furniture includes the characteristics of almost all types. It can have a corner and a modular part at the same time and separately. This allows you to organically fit it into any interior. Both classic and custom color palettes are encouraged.
