Wood in the bathroom
The bathroom is a room with high humidity. It is known that wood does not like moisture, starts to hurt, loses its mechanical characteristics, and its appearance becomes unsightly. But if you choose the right types of wood for placement in the bathroom and carry out the correct preparatory processing, then wooden products will serve for a long time without losing their properties and appearance.
Wood can be used for walls, floors and ceilings. Properly colored wood creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the bathroom. Massifs of dark rocks form a semblance of a classic style. Light or pastel colors are suitable for a Provence or Shebi-chic bathroom. Lovers of minimalism can opt for a monochrome palette and simple geometric outlines.
Not only interior decoration is made of wood, but also furniture and accessories. The bathroom must contain shelves, hangers, closed cabinets. Usually these items are made of plastic, but wooden furniture is more pleasant to the eye and to the touch, and also increases the degree of comfort.
Bathroom walls, floors and ceilings can also be decorated with wood. This will be a kind of tribute to antiquity, because the baths used to be completely wooden. And in a country house, wooden structural elements of the building are also part of the interior and should look like decorations.
Wood is the most environmentally friendly material. Products made of teak, pine, oak, Brazil nut or beech are moisture resistant, reliable and durable. They can be safely used near water, and they will not lose their appearance. Cedar, mahogany, larch are not very resistant to water, so they should be used for making furniture.
Wood can be used to make countertops for sinks, toothbrush holders, hangers and shelves for towels, cabinets for cosmetics and different types of soap, and many other useful things. If only it was done tastefully and looked beautiful.
Wood is used both in the form of processed blanks (boards, bars) and in the form of an array. Until recently, the word "wood" in relation to furniture or design elements was understood as a chipboard - chipboard. This is a technologically advanced and cheaper material. But he is not suitable in the bathroom, there he will quickly damp and begin to crumble. In the bathroom, all items should only be made of natural wood.
Baths and sinks
In the bathroom, a lot can be made of wood, and if you want to, even handles and handwheels on the faucet taps. But the most interesting thing is the wooden sinks and the bathtubs themselves, because in the old days people washed in wooden barrels and fonts.
The shell can be carved from a transversely sawn piece of a trunk of the desired diameter or hollowed out from a piece of a suitable size. You can make a sink of any shape and size. The surface, especially the inner one, must be treated with antiseptics and varnish to ensure the health of the tree and the appearance of the product.
A wooden sink needs special care. It must be protected from sharp objects that can scratch it. It is very difficult to wash off traces of fat from it, therefore it should not be placed in the kitchen and should be regularly treated with special compositions based on oil and wax.
Baths are either hollowed out from a large piece of a trunk of a suitable diameter and length, or they are assembled from boards, like a boat, or they simply make a barrel of the required size. But such a bath should be done by a team of master coopers.
