Many of us want to escape to a cozy and warm home, where everything will be cozy and without everyday falseness. This is why choosing a wooden house is becoming increasingly popular. Much attention should be paid to the bedroom.

DIY cable installation - instructions

The technology for installing wiring cables includes several stages. For work you will need screwdrivers (simple, Phillips), drill or screwdriver, indicator screwdriver, rubberized gloves.

Installation of distribution panel

A distribution board is needed for installing the power cable and further distributing energy through the wiring. The panel is responsible for accounting, normal operation and safety of the entire electrical system. The device is sold ready-made; externally it is a box with a door, inside it has a DIN rail and a grounding bus.

The shield is mounted vertically 1.2-1.5 m from the floor, preferably on a very strong wall. Markings are applied to the base, holes are drilled along it, and the shield is attached to the screws. Then a residual current device, a counter, and machines connected to each other by jumpers are placed on the DIN rail. The necessary cables are supplied along each line.

Cable entry into the room

The cable is brought into the house underground or by air. It is better to use the first method, placing the wire 40 cm underground. 20 cm of sand is placed in a trench 80 cm deep, then a protective corrugation is installed through which a special cable is laid. Afterwards, another 20 cm layer of sand is made and the trench is covered with earth. If you decide to run the power cable over the air, you need to install supports at every 20 m distance. A non-flammable sleeve is placed in the wall at the cable entry point.

Installation of overhead switches and sockets

Before installation, you need to remove the switch key and the front panel and remove the mechanism. Place the back of the device against the wall and make a level mark. Drill holes with a drill and secure the body with dowels. Strip and connect the cables - phase to phase, zero to zero, ground to ground. After fixing the terminals, you can return the front panel to its place, completing the assembly of the device. Sockets are attached in the same way.

Connecting cables and contacts

The use of twists when installing wiring is not allowed - in wooden walls this can cause a fire. It is best to use whole pieces of cables. If this is not possible, cut off the cables with a margin of 20 cm, and use high-quality terminal blocks (terminal blocks) for connection. They have pressure plates or screws, the former being considered more suitable. The cables are inserted into the terminals, pre-stripped, after which they can be laid in the wall.

Basics of arranging a bed in a wooden house

If you have not only decided to build a wooden house, but are already starting to furnish the house, first of all think through such points as:

selection of materials for interior decoration;
take into account the color of the wood in the overall style;
the color scheme in the interior of the entire house should be in one or more colors that complement each other;
Do not forget about the architectural style of the house and keep all rooms in the same style as much as possible;
lighting should be well thought out and highlight the interior as much as possible.

From all this, you can form three basic rules for creating a cozy bedroom made of timber:

place the bedroom as far as possible from the kitchen or corridor
many people build two-story wooden houses, then the bedroom should be located on the second floor, away from the hustle and bustle of home;
the optimal solution would be to place such a room in the attic or attic (if any)
It is necessary to think carefully about the issue of lighting, since wood is a fire hazard. There is no need to skimp on materials and specialists. For the bedroom it is better to consider several light sources.

Depending on the project, a bedroom in a wooden house can be located either in the attic or on the ground floor. Everything will depend on the size of the room and imagination. If with a large space there is a place for everything, then in a small room, especially in the attic, it is difficult to create a truly cozy bedroom.

Preparation of a power supply project

At the stage of repairing or even building a house, you should prepare a project for its electrification. For this purpose, the owner is obliged to write an application to the regional office of Gorset, which will be reviewed by specialists. Then they will draw up a contract and technical conditions. Next, you can prepare a project that takes into account a number of standards. Main parameters reflected in the project:

power of network cables - calculated taking into account the availability of electrical appliances, 30% is added to the figure for reserve;
wiring cross-section – for all groups the type and cross-section of conductors is indicated;
a specific layout of electrical points - it reflects sockets, panels, distribution box, entry point of the main cable and other data;
distance of electrical points from the floor, ceiling, doors and windows.

It should be remembered that wiring can only be laid vertically or horizontally, and the angle of rotation of the cables must be 90 degrees. Access to sockets and other points must be free. Recommendations for calculating the number and installation of electrical points are as follows:

switch height – 80-150 cm from the floor;
height of sockets – 50-80 cm from the floor;
number of ceiling lamps – one per 10-15 sq. m;
number of sockets – one per 4-6 sq. m;
power of the main distribution board - from 15 kW, presence of an RCD;
the minimum distance of the cable from the openings is 10 cm;
cable distance from metal elements – 15-30 cm.

Bedroom with sloping roof

When the roof is high, there are no problems with arranging a sleeping place. But in half the cases in wooden houses, the upper floor is planned to be low, and the sloping ceiling line itself can reach the floor. There is no need to try to somehow level the space; you need to make the bedroom with a sloping roof the dignity of the house. Here you need to carefully arrange the furniture, decorate the ceiling with bulky wooden beams and think through multi-level lighting.

How to choose a bed?

Beds look best surrounded by wooden walls and ceilings:

with textile headboard. A soft panel, upholstered in plain or printed fabric, smooth or with piqué, will contrast with the wood texture and help create a cozy, soothing interior.

leather. Suitable for loft-oriented rooms, “men’s” bedrooms, and interiors decorated in the spirit of English club houses.

from the array. To avoid overdoing the rustic effect, choose smooth, semi-gloss finishes as opposed to textured walls and ceilings.

Beds with a laconic, almost spartan design are not suitable

Bedroom mezzanine

In a small cottage, where there is no attic as such, you can make a two-level space, where the second tier is allocated for a bedroom. The open layout of a mezzanine bedroom in a small wooden house will look modern and thoughtful. In other words

This is a mezzanine with a sleeping area. Ideally it would be placed in the attic directly under the attic window.

Floral wallpaper

Floral wallpaper is a wonderful addition to a country bedroom interior. This is the perfect decoration for your wall and will give you an elegant rustic look.

The advantage of floral decoration is that it is best for giving a traditional and pleasant style to the bedroom. This is sure to make your room feel warm and lively.

Room without windows

Not all attics have windows, but there is no reason to neglect the attic. Here you can safely place a bedroom without windows. Such a bedroom is not suitable for permanent relaxation, but for sleeping or just as a guest room it is quite suitable. For comfort, you need to equip it with different sources of natural light. Depending on your mood, create either a bright or dim light mode. These are ceiling lamps or chandeliers, sconces, floor lamps. You need to place one or more mirrors on the walls to make the room seem brighter.

What to do with the floor?

Lay a natural board treated with impregnation, a good laminate, solid board or parquet that matches the color of the walls or is a tone or two darker.

But it is better to refuse porcelain stoneware that imitates wood: next to the natural cut pattern, natural surface texture with bends, knots and cracks, the fake will look artificial - even the highest quality.

A large room

If you do not want to block the space in a large room, then it is better to divide the bedroom into several zones. For example, a work area, a sleeping area, a relaxation area, etc.

If space allows, you can make a three-level bedroom that rises several floors. Here you don’t need to think about how to divide the room into several zones, everything is done for you. For example, on the ground floor you can place a small living room with a sofa, on the second floor - a study. And on the third - the bedroom

Color solutions

The color palette of country style is natural. Taking into account individual preferences and the size of the room, you can safely choose any of the appropriate shades, for example:

white in all variations;
sand beige;
wood brown;
pistachio;
baby blue.

To give the interior integrity, nuanced combinations are often used in country style. The combined use of shades of the same color of different saturation allows you to create smooth transitions, emphasize texture and provide a beautiful play of light and shadow.

Bedroom Design Styles

Wood is loved for its naturalness and the ability to realize creative ideas. Moreover, this is where you can realize your creative ideas without resorting to the help of professional designers. But before choosing a style, it is worth remembering that

You should not hide its wooden texture inside the house. No finishing with putty, drywall, etc.
if the house is built of beams, then harmoniously build the style of a peasant hut, so to speak. To do this, you just need to choose simple furniture without much carving.
fabrics in the interior should be natural.

As you can see, the design of a bedroom in a wooden house involves almost no restrictions.

Let's look at a few stylistic solutions that are perfect for a wooden house.

Country style

By creating a rustic style in the bedroom, you first of all create the simplicity and originality in which peasants lived just a few centuries ago. Agree that it will be nice to find yourself in such a house, escaping from a noisy metropolis. It is important to choose the right bed for this style. It should be large, tall and with a large headboard. Among the materials allowed are wood or a metal bed with a forged back and legs. To store things, you can purchase a chest of drawers or a chest. If the choice fell on a closet, then it should have hinged doors. Rustic style is primarily a dark color palette. So if you have light wood, then the room needs to be coated with a dark varnish. Decor plays an important role. Without homemade runners, crocheted napkins, wardrobe covers, and a large number of pillows, there won’t be that rustic style.

Rustic style

Another popular choice in the interior is the rustic style. It is popular due to its pronounced rawness and surfaces and the simplicity of furniture and decor. The main thing here is that the wood has an aged appearance, as if it had been exposed to the environment for a long time. Only natural color palette is used - leather, stone and other natural materials should be diluted with gray or white tones. The whole zest of Russian studies is based on a combination of natural textures. This style is less brutal and modern among others.

Country

Country came to us from America as another rustic style. The use of modern technology is unacceptable here and retro is encouraged.

For country style, you should choose beige, linen sand shades. A large amount of decor is allowed. The surface of the furniture can be covered not only with varnish, but also with paint. Today, country music is not as popular as it was several years ago.

Provence

The most sophisticated and elegant of all is the Provence style bedroom in a wooden house. This elegant rustic style came to us from France. Pastel and pink tones predominate here. All furniture must be made in vintage style. If forged elements are used, they should not be painted with white paint. For decoration, elements with small flowers, checks, and stripes are used. Paintings on the wall with landscapes will look especially good here. This is a great option for romantic people.

Chalet

For hunting lovers, you can decorate the house in a chalet style. Here you need massive furniture and calm, muted colors of sand and brown. The bedroom must have a fireplace, decor in the form of skins, animal horns, etc. This style requires good financial investments. This is a good option for a one-story wooden house with three bedrooms.

Finnish style

For a successful compromise between functionality and aesthetics in a wooden house, you can use the Finnish style. There is room for innovative technologies, natural materials and the latest fashion trends. Wooden beams must be present, furniture must be simple and functional. The color scheme should be white or sand shades. In addition to wood, there must also be elements made from stone.

As you can see, the interior of a bedroom in a wooden house can be breathtakingly beautiful and functional, regardless of the size of the room. The main thing is not to forget about the functional purpose of the bedroom and make such a room a real zone of rest, comfort and relaxation.

Finishing work

Floor finishing

To finish the floor in the bedroom, parquet, flooring or laminate is used. The choice of such materials will allow you to decorate the interior of the house in the same style and preserve the wooden surface.

Parquet is considered the most respectable solution, because it is made of natural wood. When laying, you can alternate boards of different colors and types of wood.

The parquet board has a three-layer structure. The outer layer is made of valuable wood, varnished. This is a cheaper option than parquet.

Laminate finishing is associated with the lowest costs. The basis of the laminate is wood fiber, onto which decorative paper and moisture-resistant film are applied. Floors made from this material have less decorative properties than parquet, but are practical and durable.

Ceiling finishing

Finishing the ceiling in the bedroom is done in one of the following ways:

Wooden slats or paneling. For cladding, lamellas of any width are used. First, you need to treat the material for the wooden ceiling with wood paints and fire-resistant compounds.
Drywall. This option requires the installation of an additional frame. Plasterboard structures provide good breathability and hide ceiling defects.
Beam ceiling. Beams made of natural wood or false beams are used for cladding. The rafters are fastened with self-tapping screws.

Wall decoration

How to decorate the walls of a wooden house? First, choose the finishing method:

wallpapering;
bleaching or dyeing;
plaster;
fabric upholstery;
sheathing with clapboard or other materials.

When using wallpaper, paint or plaster, the walls are first leveled with plasterboard. The walls must be treated, dirt must be removed and the wood must be impregnated with compounds against fungus and mold.

In houses made of logs or laminated veneer lumber, it is allowed not to carry out additional finishing. These materials have good decorative properties. The stone can be used to decorate a fireplace or columns.

Bedroom lighting

A small room can be equipped with central lighting. If the size of the bedroom allows, it is recommended to provide diffused light.

To do this, spotlights are installed on the walls or ceiling. You can place a floor lamp or wall lamp next to the bed.

Recessed lights can be installed on a wooden ceiling. On the bedside tables there are lamps with ceramic or fabric lampshades.

The design of a bedroom in a wooden house involves the use of natural colors and materials. Depending on the chosen style, you can decorate the room with elements made of clay, wood, stone, and textiles. Particular attention is paid to the choice of furniture and lighting of the rooms.

Choosing furniture

Sometimes it is enough to buy a comfortable bed and a spacious chest of drawers from furniture. Everything else is objects that fill the interior with a special spirit.

The bed can be made of wrought iron or wood. Everything else in the room is centered around it. Wooden beds are produced in various shades (depending on the type of wood). Beds made of natural painted wood are often used for bedrooms in the Provence style. Sometimes its surface is artificially aged.

A classic furniture option is a huge wooden double bed in a natural shade, coated with a protective varnish. Its color should be in harmony with the color of the finish: harmonize with it or contrast with it.

The color of the furniture should be the same color as the bed. Typically, all bedroom furniture is made by a craftsman or purchased as a set, so there should be no difficulty in choosing.

The standard set of bedroom furniture is a bed, bedside tables, a wardrobe and a wardrobe. Sometimes there may be a mirror, an armchair, a chest of drawers and other less important items. But don't overcrowd the room.

There are several tricks that will help you decorate your bedroom in the best traditions.

To make waking up and falling asleep pleasant, the bed can be placed under the window so that the headboard is closer to the light. In the morning the sun will illuminate the bedroom, and at night the bright moon will replace the lamp.
Furniture should not be massive and heavy; keep the bedside tables and tables next to the bed small. Instead of a regular chair, it is better to put a wicker rocking chair.
A fireplace will make the atmosphere warm and cozy.

Bedroom decor

Don't overcrowd the space or fill the room with cute trinkets.

The choice of decorative elements depends on the style chosen in the room.

Objects of practical importance are also suitable for decoration:

lamps of unusual shape;
watch;
curtains;
rug;
soft pillows;
candlesticks;
Natural flowers.

Textile upholstery combines most harmoniously with natural wood - the fabric should be natural.

Handmade items are welcome.

With some effort, you can create a cozy, beautiful space that promotes good rest and sound sleep.

In a room without windows, it is necessary to equip a high-quality ventilation system to ensure an optimal microclimate.
