Here, we look at how to use a feature wall with internal cladding to draw attention. We’ll explore some interior cladding concepts that will give your area texture and an opulent vibe.
When we consider interior feature walls, painted gyprock or plasterboard often come to mind. For aesthetic appeal and to fill up big empty areas, we prefer to hang pictures or cover plain walls with wallpaper. A feature wall that we create sometimes stands out creatively on its own.
Do you remember when it was popular to paint one wall with a different colour?
Today’s feature wall, however, is more likely to be about textures in addition to the colour, such as a feature wall covered in natural stone or wood, for instance.
Many houses with modern designs have a timber-cladding appearance. We often want the style to be both elegant and genuine, in addition to the beauty we seek in our houses.
While it might have aesthetic appeal, cladding can also be useful. Internally cladding feature walls with wood cladding may improve insulation in your house and serve as a sound barrier. The additional sheathing will dampen sound, even if it won’t completely soundproof your room if you have loud neighbours or don’t want to listen in on discussions in the room next to you.
Your walls are shielded by cladding
Your walls are shielded by cladding from children’s toys and dogs’ unintentional gouging and scratching of the plaster and paints. But even if you don’t think your walls need to be protected, you may still want to think about cladding or a fully internal wood feature wall for the opulent makeover they can provide when you’re looking for that unique architectural flair!
The most popular places for interior feature walls are corridors, living rooms, kitchens, and sometimes large bedrooms where they are often used as bed headboards.
Consumers like the appearance of genuine wood, and both wood and composite cladding are offered in a wide range of profiles and colours to complement any design.
And it’s not necessary to cover full rooms. A feature wall should complement rather than overpower a space with its aesthetic presence.
Natural timber cladding will need care throughout its lifespan, which is one clear difference with composite cladding material. Regular oiling, staining, or painting of the cladding is required. Wood-boring bugs should also be watched out for.
On the other hand, you may always think about composite cladding if you have your heart set on the timber appearance but don’t want the upkeep or to worry about termites and other wood-boring bugs. For instance, NewTechWood is an environmentally friendly composite made from HDPE plastic and reclaimed wood fibres. Our proprietary Ultrashield capping is applied to all four sides of NewTechWood boards to provide protection. This indicates that it will never need staining, oiling, or painting. You just need to choose your colour and install it.
Here are some more ideas for interior feature walls made of composite cladding.
Declare a position
Ideal for when you want a wall to stand out for a specific purpose or you’d like to leave a wall unadorned yet fascinating rather than fill it with artwork.
Lift confined hallways
Little hallways and corridors may need to be brightened, but there isn’t enough room to hang pictures or other decorations.

Instead of hanging paintings on the wall between two bookshelves, cover it with wallpaper to avoid the area seeming crowded.
Background wall
Without overcrowding the room, you may utilise interior wood panelling to provide an attractive background for a big-screen TV. Pictures taken by Morrison Cabinets of inside castellation cladding

Use the wall behind your bed as an extension of your bedhead by covering it whole or in part.
Cabinets or the island in the kitchen have inside wood panelling.
Cover the sides of your cabinets or the island in your kitchen to give it a more upscale appearance. The same cladding may be applied to walls as well as the backs of open kitchen shelves.
