Ultrawood - skirting board for every taste
The more perfect the material, the wider the possibilities. Using a modern analogue of wood called LDF (low density fiberboard), the company Ultrawood can offer consumers a very wide line of profiles for the baseboard. Wide or narrow, simple or complex in form - there are so many options that the eyes run wide. It's okay: choosing the right skirting board is not so difficult if you adhere to the basic principles.
Dance from the interior
The main rule - the baseboard should not be the only ornate element of the interior. Inspect the future interior with your master's eye and figure out whether the room will have complex furniture or intricate accessories. If so, you can safely choose a skirting board with a more pronounced relief. Otherwise, it is better to be content with the baseboard easier. However, if you really want to, you can specially come up with aesthetic support for the skirting board of complex shape - for example, the appropriate curtains and curtains in combination with ceiling cornices will help restore balance in the interior - harmony consists of an even distribution of accents in space.
You can’t argue with the floor
An important reference point when choosing a skirting board configuration is flooring. If there is a carpet or inexpensive laminate on the floor, a skirting board with classic motifs will only emphasize their unpretentiousness, so it’s worth stopping at the simplest option. But with a parquet board and parquet any reliefs on skirting boards, right down to the most fantasy ones, are perfectly combined. But with a caveat: it is worth taking care of stylistic compliance. Minimalist skirtings are more suitable for rustic coatings imitating an unprocessed wood: their smooth surface will perfectly shade the natural texture of the wood. The traditional “mirror” flooring gravitates towards figured skirting boards: the play of light and shadow creates an expressive contrast with the uniform texture of the boards. And, of course, if you chose ceramic tiles, it is better to refuse a pronounced relief on the skirting boards, since ceramic already saturates the space with texture.
Wall in focus
Wall covering also matters. The simpler the skirting board, the more versatile it is, and it can be used in different combinations: with painted walls, wallpaper and textured plaster. Another thing is a skirting board with a complex relief. It is definitely suitable for a plain-painted wall, but if you have a pronounced pattern on the wallpaper, you have to think about it. In the nursery, pasted with cheerful wallpapers with cats or, for example, in the kitchen, where the fruits are shown on the wallpaper, it is better to refuse to use skirting boards with a “historical” decor. In other cases, it is worth paying attention to the nature of the drawing: it is better that the relief on the baseboard corresponds to it. In addition, the scale of the patterns plays a significant role. It is very difficult to imagine the big picture abstractly, therefore, in practice, such subtleties are found out empirically, applying baseboard samples in place.
Width is not scary
Wide skirting boards are the best choice for rooms with any ceiling height. Firstly, this is practical as they better protect the bottom of the wall from accidental damage. Secondly - aesthetically and fashionably, and there is an opinion that the trend will develop on an increasing basis. And if, according to your plan, the wall should be visually perceived as an integral surface, a wide plinth can be painted exactly in its color - good profiles Ultrawood They are supplied with a factory primer, and any paint on wood is suitable for painting, which, of course, can be tinted.
