Walnut Furniture

Furniture in walnut color is not in vain one of the most sought-after segments in the production of interior items. Deep shades, expressive natural pattern, durability and suppleness of the material attract both furniture makers and manufacturers of finishing materials. A wide palette of shades - from light "honey" tones to very dark, deep mahogany, can transform any interior - from classic to ultramodern.

Of course, the color of the nut varies depending on the type of tree and can be presented in various shades, colorful combinations, various variations of the veins of the wood pattern. On sale you can find the following variations of this durable but flexible material in the processing of furniture and decoration elements:

  • Italian;
  • Milanese;
  • Brazilian;
  • American;
  • pecans.

Not only furniture, but also doors, flooring, wall panels, countertops, decor elements and picture frames are made of walnut wood. Many homeowners themselves, or with the help of professionals, would like to bring the warmth of natural material to the interior of their own home. Let's try together to figure out which interior decoration, color palette, textiles and decor are more effective and attractive to combine different variations of walnut.

Color walnut in the kitchen and dining room

If the basis for the design of the premises is walnut, then it is necessary to prioritize the use of shades and clearly distribute the proportions. To simplify, the "nut theme" in space can appear in two variations. The first type involves the use of a nut dominant - it is one of the species of wood that becomes the basis of furniture - a kitchen, for example. Such design of the space will require excellent natural and artificial lighting - large windows and a multi-stage lighting system in this case will help maintain the warmth of the natural material. The second option for using walnut shades is the so-called “companion nut”, which effectively complements the basic atmosphere of the space and often acts as an accent or softens the existing brightness of the design.

Not every kitchen space is able to harmoniously accept the whole furniture ensemble, made of walnut wood. The beautiful natural pattern of the nut blends in perfectly with light shades and acts as a contrasting dark accent in this case. The use of a dark shade of walnut for the execution of the lower tier of kitchen cabinets and the base of the island in combination with a light top furniture set allows not only to create a colorful and practical ensemble, but also visually increase the height of the room.

The pronounced natural drawing of the nut does not need decoration. Therefore, most kitchen facades from this material are either presented in an absolutely smooth version, or are accompanied by the simplest and most concise fittings, not able to distract attention from the main element of the furniture ensemble. For the same reasons, it is better to choose monophonic countertops for a kitchen set, excluding variations on the theme of stone (or its imitation) with no less rich natural texture - streaks and overflows, changing shades and colors.

Another way to use walnut in the kitchen space is to clad floors and make countertops. In order for the natural wood pattern to be most advantageously presented, it is recommended to use wooden countertops in combination with light, plain facades of kitchen cabinets. The combination of the material of the countertop with the floor will harmoniously complete the image of the room for cooking.

For dark, deep shades of walnut wood, a spacious and bright dining room is perfect. The severity and clarity of the dining group will look especially advantageous against a light background of flooring, snow-white walls and sunlight breaking through panoramic windows.

Walnut is a pliable material for making furniture. Strong, but flexible natural raw materials allow you to create original forms - chairs on bent legs, tables and coasters of elegant design, original backs for mini-chairs.

A walnut dining table by itself looks luxurious, solidly and a bit vintage. Its massiveness is in a pleasant neighborhood with natural naturalness. Such a practical element of the interior can become the focal point of modern design, gathering around itself furniture and decor, decorated in a completely different manner. And while the whole composition will look harmonious, original and at the same time functional.

Brown-honey shades of walnut integrate perfectly into almost any interior style. Modern motifs in the design of the kitchen or dining room harmoniously accept the natural warmth, as opposed to the stainless steel appliances, glossy facades, glass surfaces and an abundance of built-in lighting.

The decoration of the breakfast area and other short meals can be the original group of a luxurious Milan nut. The bent legs of a small table, the elegant design of the countertops, comfortable, but at the same time aesthetically attractive chairs - such an ensemble with colorful colors will look great in a warm and bright environment. The pieces of furniture installed at the window bathe in the sun, giving us the opportunity to make out a unique natural pattern of natural material in all its glory.

Walnut wood in the living room

The tree of different breeds has a pronounced structure, its natural pattern is so attractive and unique that simple and concise forms are often used in the manufacture of furniture. Strict facades without decor, often with hidden fittings, can become a highlight of the interior only due to the unusual texture of the material. For the most harmonious background for such a colorful natural pattern, it is better to choose plain, neutral shades, light tones.

Visual expansion of the living room space, including a visual increase in the height of the ceiling in the room, can be achieved by using dark, deep shades of walnut wood for the execution of low furniture (such as chests of drawers and other small modular solutions), as well as flooring in combination with light finish walls and snow-white execution of the ceiling.

The walnut dominant in the living room is a luxury that allows only really spacious and bright rooms. If your living room has not only a large area, high ceilings, but also panoramic windows that fill the entire room with sunlight, in this case, the use of wooden panels to decorate the walls and even the ceiling can become a highlight of the interior. But even in a spacious room it is better not to use all the surfaces for decoration with walnut wood - leave at least one wall with a light finish, accent in this case.

If the use of walnut furniture in the living room seems too bold to you, then try to use the beautiful natural pattern of this durable and colorful material as a facing material for the floor.

Bedroom with walnut furniture

In a bedroom, like in no other, walnut wood looks especially organic. Whether walnut will dominate the interior or act as local blotches - its presence in the design of the sleeping room always brings the notes of warmth and coziness, peace and relaxation that we so need after a hard day in preparation for bedtime.

If you decide to use a dark nut to execute not only the main interior item of your bedroom - the bed, but also the rest of the room furniture, for example, a closet, chest of drawers, a dressing table or bedside tables, then you should understand that such "heavy artillery" can only be carried out spacious and bright room.

If you choose a similar color for bedside tables, a dressing table or thus design a work area as part of a bedroom, then you need to arrange this furniture against a light background. In this case, the use of a pastel palette and even snow-white color schemes for finishing almost all surfaces of the bedroom will be justified as never before.

Cribs and cots for babies, two-tier structures for two children and already full-fledged berths for teenagers can be supplemented with small chests of drawers, cabinets, book shelves or storage system modules in a different modification.

  • it should be designed for the active influence of a humid environment;
  • furniture must be chosen practical, so that even in a small room to provide the necessary level of storage system capacity;
