Registration of walls indoors of the apartment, as well as the facade of the house decorative brick or material imitating brick masonry - never came out of fashion. However, unfortunately, it is not always possible to use for interior decoration Housing is a real brick, as it will weight the slab overlapping multi-storey buildings. In addition, make the perfect laying "under the extection" - is not so simple, because for this you need at least a minimal experience of a mason.

It is much easier to use others interesting methodsallowing you to achieve the desired result. Imitation of bricks for interior decoration can be produced differently and, which is characteristic, is available in the installation of any, even a beginner decorator.

Considering the fact that brickwork decades remains popular and used in reproducing various interior styles, manufacturers did not miss this moment, and developed several types of material capable of replacing a natural brick.

Such finishes is made in different forms - it can be a flexible or rigid tile having a side of the end side of the brick, or large wall panels that close a whole section of the walls produced from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), MDF or glass fiber-cement.

Flexible tile "under the brick"

Flexible tile, imitating brickwork, is great for internal and exterior decoration walls. This modern material is not only decorative, but also a protective coating for surfaces and has a number of positive qualities - here you can include resistance to external atmospheric impacts, impact resistance, vapor permeability, inertness of microorganisms, as well as to ultraviolet radiation, and, of course, Aesthetic appearance and a fairly simple processing and installation process.

"Flexible brick" is easily mounted not only on straight smooth surfaces, but also perfectly envelopes external and internal angles premises.

Such material is used to decorate walls inside apartments and houses, in particular, such premises, as a hallway, corridors, kitchens, living rooms, loggias. It will fit both for external, facade walls. It is very convenient to use such tiles for cladding columns, fireplaces, small architectural forms, as well as in any areas where such design is conceived. Regardless of the complexity of the surface configuration.

The tile can be used to finish the entire wall completely or fixed on its separate sections. Since the material has many colors, there is an opportunity to make a finish of one-photon or apply the tiles of different shades, hamonary combining them with each other.

Installation of "Flexible Brick"

For mounting flexible tiles, complex electrical instruments will not be required. It will only be necessary to prepare:

- smooth spatula 120 ÷ 150 mm wide - for mixing and applying glue;

- a toothed spatula with a combination of a height of 4 mm and a width of 150 ÷ \u200b\u200b200 mm;

- construction level with a length of 1000 ÷ 1500 mm;

- a line of 1000 ÷ 1500 mm;

- Marking painted cord for bulging lines;

- simple pencil;

- powerful scissors;

- Brush 12 mm width for leveling the solution in intercutric seams.

From materials, except for tiles, it will take primer for walls and special tile glue.

For installation, a dry building mixture can be applied - ordinary tile glue, but it is more convenient to use the prepared for use with the composition, packaged in plastic buckets. In any case, purchasing tile, you should immediately consult with the seller on the question suitable for a specific glue material.

In order for the masonry to be smooth and neat, the wall before starting the installation, it is necessary to put in order, cleaning and aligning it. After drying the leveling solution, the wall must be implanted with an antiseptic composition, which will give materials a higher adhesion and will not allow in the future to appear mold under the cladding layer. When the primer is sucked, you can move to the installation of tiles.

In addition, it is necessary to take into account the fact that mounting work It is necessary to conduct at a temperature not lower than +5 degrees, otherwise the adhesion between the materials will be insufficient, and the tile may later begin to peel from the surface of the walls.

• The first step of the wall surface must be drawn on the smooth zones by which glue will be applied and the tile is fixed. If the entire wall is facing completely, then it is necessary to repeal the upper and lower bounding lines.
• The glue is applied not to the entire surface, but on separately paid zones, constituting about 1000 × 500 mm. The adhesive mass layer should be approximately 2 ÷ 3 mm - it is applied using a smooth spatula, and then distributed throughout the region to be lined with a gear spatula so that the grooves are the same height.

• The tile is glued together, and if the first of the rows start with a whole tile, then the second - from half or one third of the "brick", depending on the desired location of the warehouse seams.

To divide into parts "flexible brick" at any angle, without the use of any power tools is simple enough: it is placed and cuts along the line with ordinary scissors.

• The seams between the rows may have different thickness - this parameter will depend on the preference of the wizard, but usually the lumen is left at 10 ÷ 12 mm. The selected seam size is taken into account immediately when the wall marking on the mounting zones is marked.

• "Flexible brick" easily envelopes protrusions formed at any angle, as well as internal angles or rounded walls if they are on the surface of the surface.

• When the stressed surface zone is decorated with tiles, it is necessary to immediately align the solution in horizontal and vertical seams, otherwise the adhesive will grab, and it will not work careful alignment. Smoothing of the solution is carried out using a relatively thin brush of medium rigidity, slightly moistened in water.

The fact that for flexible tiles is not required to additionally acquire the grip for the seams, it is also possible to boldly be called the dignity of the material, as it does not have to do extra costs.

Rigid facing tile "under the brick"

The decorative tile is made on the basis of various materials, such as plaster, cement, clay, as well as from a mixture of some of them with the addition of fiberolocone, coloring additives and special plasticizers. Some finishing tiles can be manufactured independently. In addition, the imitation of brickwork can be carried out in other ways.

The laying technology of rigid tiles from various materials is almost the same, only for fixing on the wall, suitable glue compositions are used. The installation process of the wall on the wall will be considered after a brief description of the types of rigid facing tiles.

Gypsum tile

Gypsum tile for interior decoration, imitating brick, can be called the most affordable facing option. The material has a small weight, so it will not be difficult to fix it on the wall, but for high adhesion, when it is fixed to the surface, it is necessary to use adhesive on a plaster basis. The main disadvantage of such a tile that does not have a protective coating is quite high hygroscopicity of the material, so it is not recommended to use indoors with high humidity air.

If the gypsum finishing material has special additives and moisture-proof protective layers, both with external and from the back side, then it can be used not only in any rooms, but even for facade facing. These tile options are mounted on tile glue, designed for external work (you can often find the term - "for complex bases").

For the convenience of finishing the corners, special curly elements are manufactured, which will not only make these wall areas neat, but also protect capital walls from chips.

Using this version of the finish "under the brick" for the walls, it will be necessary to purchase not only the materials mentioned above, but also the grout, which makes the seams between the tile, creating a single hermetic layer that protects the entire surface of the wall.

Cement facing tile

Facing tile made of cement mortar, its popularity is obliged to a variety of colors and textures, as well as an affordable material price. In addition, this type of finish has a good performance characteristics, due to which it can be used in any room, not even equipped with heating for the winter period.

The molding solution for the production of such a tile consists of portland cement and sand with the addition of water. Usually, portland cement M400 and M500 are used for it, which is taken in proportion 1: 2 or 1: 3, relative to the sand.

The solution of the sour cream-like consistency is distributed into special silicone forms, and after it is frozen, finished products are obtained, already painted in mass or require external decoration and applying a protective coating. Facing material from the cement mortar, as well as from the gypsum, it is possible to make it yourself. And if it was not possible to find a matrix form of the desired format, then it can also be made with your own hands.

For those who love to do everything on their own ...

Artificial stone, including - and on the form of a masonry brick, optionally acquire in stores. All - from the manufacture of forms to casting tiles, can be performed and own forces. Of course, some knowledge is needed - the article of our portal will help in this reader.

Clinker tile

Clinker tiles are used for the inner lining of the walls not as often as the other types of material imitating brick, as it has a sufficiently high price. It is more often acquired for facades, given its highest performance characteristics. However, you can apply for interior decoration and it, especially if there is a furnace or fireplace.

It is made of natural high-pile clays, without the use of artificial dyes and plasticizers. The raw material is pressed and burned at high temperatures that reach + 1150 ÷ \u200b\u200b1200 degrees. Due to this, the clinker tile is an environmentally friendly material with unsurpassed natural durability and reliability qualities that multiply in the process of the production process.

Such finishing material is perfect for both internal and facade facing. It has a very low coefficient of moisture absorption, high frost resistance and wear resistance, inertia to temperature drops and to almost any chemical influences.

The decorativeness of the clinker tile is not inferior to its physico-technical characteristics, since the variety of design options allows you to choose the material for every taste and style of the interior of the premises or the facade of the structure. The finish may have a rough, glazed or natural, unprocessed surface. A tile of different sizes and shapes is available on sale, and this factor also allows you to implement the most courageous design ideas.

Installation of facing tile "under the brick"

As mentioned above, the entire tile having a certain rigidity is mounted on the wall approximately equally. For work, the same tools will be required as for "flexible bricks", and besides, it will be necessary to prepare a manual circular saw or grinding machine With a stone disk.

Works on laying a cladding from this type of material are more complex, since the finishing already has a considerable weight, and after installation requires a neat sealing of the seams between the tiles.

The process of cladding is carried out in the following order:

• The laying should be made on the prepared, primed and relatively smooth wall.
• The wall mounting of the wall is in the same way as for the installation of any piece facing material: the even lines on the upper and lower masonry level are beaten, then all the distance between them is recommended, calculated and divided horizontally so that in this area the intended number of rows can accommodate Masonry, with compulsory taking into account the thickness of the seams between them. It is especially important to carry out this process in the event that there is no sufficient experience on the walls of the walls - the markup will help make the masonry perfectly smoothly.

Performing markup, each of the seams between the rows you need to remove 10 ÷ 12 mm.

• Next, the glue mass is prepared, which is selected in accordance with the type of material, on the basis of which finishing tiles are made.

• The masonry starts from the bottom row, which is carefully verified by the construction level, since the accuracy of all wall cladding will depend on its horizontal. If the first row begins with the whole, then the second and all subsequent even rows with ½ or ⅓ tiles.
• Next, glue with a layer of 3 ÷ 4 mm is applied on the wall with a spatula. After that, the mass is distributed to a toothed spatula, which leaves an equal to the height of the groove, providing the maximum uniform distribution of glue during the pressed tile. When laying some heavy types of tiles (the same clinker), the adhesive additionally recommended to apply on the back side of the facing material. Therefore, before starting work, it is necessary to explore the instruction attached to the package in which the nuances of the installation of a particular material are specified.

• In the process of installation, it is necessary to monitor the evenness of each of the stacked rows.

• In order for the width of the seams between the tile on the entire factional surface was the same, some wizards use special calibrators of the same size. They are temporarily installed between the rows, and after setting the adhesive mass is removed and installed again, but already on the upper rows. A wooden stack or silicone columns can be used as such calibrators.

• For facing external corners Special curly elements are used, which are able to disguise the available chips, and make the angles with neat and protected.

• Upon completion of the masonry and after complete grazing of glue, the seams between the tile must be reliably and gently close up using specially intended for this purpose. Fill seams can be different:

- use finished compounds In tubes, using a special pistol.

- Place a mixed grout into a plastic bag, and then cut off the painter one of its corners on the width of the seam and gently squeeze the solution into the gaps between the rows.

In any case, the rapid composition should not fall on the facing surface of the facing - the tile-maped "under the brick" usually has a pronounced embossed texture, and when the solution gets into it, it will be very difficult to remove it, and sometimes it is not even possible. So, accuracy with this operation should stand in the foreground, even if damaged the speed of work.

If necessary (most often it happens), the seams are then smoothed using a special tool - the extender.

The grouting composition in the mixing form should be plastic, easy to fill the seams and reclocked. Since such a mixture is captured quickly enough, it should not be kneading a large amount - orient to 15 ÷ 20 minutes of work.

The process of cladding with tiles, imitating brick, is similar to the installation of a conventional ceramic tile. Therefore, if you have previously purchased experience in working with a tile, then the surface cladding material "under the brick" will be held successfully.

Interior panels for brickwork

For interior design, ready-made panels with a "brick" relief are made, which greatly facilitate the installation of the finish, as they immediately close the large area of \u200b\u200bthe wall and between themselves on the principle of puzzles, jack or other connections.

PVC and MDF panels

Panels are made from different materialsBut the most popular of them are those that are produced from polyvinyl chloride - very common and safe for a person polymer, and from modified wood-fiber plates - MDF.

With these materials - it is very easy to work, as they simply color using the hacksaw or electric jigsaw. The thin same panels from polyvinyl chloride can be cut even with an ordinary stationery or scissors.

Decorative plates for inner facing of surfaces are able to disguise any flaws and irregularities of the walls, and if they are mounted on the equipped frame, it is helped to hide various engineering communications - pipes or wiring.

In addition to these options, the panels with the relief of brick masonry are made of organity, dvp, fiberglass, gypsum, and other materials, but still the most popular PVCs and MDF remain.

By color decision The panels are very diverse, the size of the imitation of bricks may also differ, so you can choose exactly the option that perfectly fit into the interior solution of the room.

PVC panels have quite a lot of advantages that allow them to use them in rooms with different levels of humidity. They do not require additional coloring and leveling the surface under their installation. Some panel models are complemented heat insulating material - mineral Vata., foam or polyurethane foam. They are called thermopanels, but they are mainly used for external insulation Walls from the facade side. If necessary, such plates options can be applied to the decoration of the balconies - they will not only good insulationBut they will make a considerable contribution to the sound insulation of the premises.

Unlike PVC panels, the MDF finish is not recommended to use indoors with high humidity, but it is perfect for aligning the walls of the hallways, corridors, insulated balconies, and residential rooms.

Manufacturers also thought out the design of the corners, manufacturing special curly elements for this.

Panels from glass fibrobeton

Separately, it is necessary to mention the panels from the glass fibrobeton. This facing material is made on the basis of conventional cement with the addition of glass fiber fibers, which increases the stove strength of tens of times. For external panel decorations, additionally can be reinforced metal elementswhich increase the weight of the structure, but make it with a resistant to mechanical effects.

Reinforced only with fiberglass, panels have not particularly frightening weight, residually compact size. The solution for their manufacture is painted in mass, so the plates are not terrible small chips and abrasion. Some manufacturers in the production of molding mixture are added to it color fiberglass, which is somewhat darker or brighter of the main tone, but perfectly harmonizes with it - it gives a very interesting effect. In addition, additional applying paint on the surface of ready-made and mounted products is allowed.

Facing material is well suited for interior decoration, but still it is used more often for the transformation of the facade part of the walls of the structure.

Environmentally friendly plates do not lose the walls, as they have a small mass. They perfectly protect the surfaces from moisture and mechanical impacts, as well as on the penetration of the house of radio emissions, have a number of other attractive advantages. However, the cost of such facing materials It is quite high, so not every owner can afford such a finish.

Installation of the "Brick" panels on the wall

If the wall surface is quite smooth, the panels can be fixed on it without installing a frame design. Light PVC plates are glued to the purified and primed surface with one of the polymer adhesives. For example, "liquid nails" are well suited for this.

MDF-based finishing panels has a significantly greater weight, so it is additionally clipped onto the wall of the dowels in four or five places.

The glass panels from the glassfibeta can be fixed on a flat wall using a cement-based tile glue.

In the case when the walls of the wall have significant overwhelms, they are adjusted by fixing the frame structure consisting of metal guides or wooden barexhibited precisely in the desired plane in the construction level. Some manufacturers are manufactured for their products special subsystems, fixed on the wall or on the installed frame. In this case, the panels are hung on special elements subsystems.

Subsystems may have different constructions, so when purchasing facing plates and fastening systems to them, it is necessary to check the compatibility and availability of the attached instructions for the implementation of installation work.

It is clear that if it is planned to install panels on the subsystem, the framework elements must be arranged in accordance with the feature of this model.

Most. simple sight Fastening possess plastic panelsmanufactured according to the principle of siding design. They have at the top of a special perforated mounting barThrough the holes of which the stove and fixes on the wall or frame. In this case, horizontal elements of the crates are fixed on the wall surface, at a distance of the visible part of the plate.

Installation of any facing panels begins with the bottom of the wall, usually - from the angular elements.

Homemade wall design options for brickwork

If desired, to save, making the brickwork imitation on one of the walls of the apartment or the home personally, you can use the original techniques developed by the folk craftsmen.

Several options are distributed that will not require special costs of buying facing plates or panels, and also do not create special difficulties in the installation:

• An independent manufacture of polystyrene tiles with a thickness of 10 ÷ 12 mm. For this purpose, it is recommended to use extruded material with higher operational indicators than the usual white foam.
• Creating a brick laying relief using a stencil.
• Reproduction of the desired pattern on the wall using painting scotch.

Tile "Under Brick" made of polystyrene foam

If you are planned in the manufacture of tiles to apply the process of melting the edges of the foam, then work should be carried out in the open air, protecting the respiratory tract with the respirator, since this material is combustible, and toxic substances, during combustion and melting.

• The first step on the prepared aligned and primed wall surface, using a line, plumb, construction level and a simple pencil, the "brick masonry" markup is made. The wall is drawn on the horizontal strips and vertical partitions that determine the size of the brick and seams between them and masonry rows.
• The second step is made of the sheet of polystyrene foam on the tiles of the selected size.

• Then the material is cut on separate elements Stationery knife. The number of such blocks must correspond to the number of bricks necessary for the design of a certain section of the wall, on which markup was made.

• Further, in order to achieve the most reliable imitation effect of bricks, you need to work on the resulting tile - this can be done in different ways. Its surface is treated with emery paper in different or one direction, a knife or other sharp tool on it are made notches and furrows. You can use and preheated soldering iron for these purposes.

Another option is to melting the edges and the outer side of the tile using a conventional lighter or burner. In this case, the facial surface acquires soft smoothed shapes.

• After staining the tile in the selected color, its relief will be more pronounced. Application of paint can be made before mounting the tile or after the wall cladding is fully completed.

Staining can be made using a brush or spray painting composition From the cylinder. The main thing is that the paint does not cause dissolution or softening expanded polystyrene - the compositions on an organic basis are better not to experiment, preferred with water-soluble.

• Laying foam tiles is made on the wall markup with the "liquid nails" glue, which is applied to the back surface with three points with a thickness of 3 ÷ 4 mm.
• The final stage will be the design of seams between bricks and rows.
• It should be noted that if the design does not provide for the allocation of intercutric seams by different color, then the staining of the facing can be made and after the grout solution is dry.

Imitation of brick masonry using stencil

In order to make a brickwork imitation using a stencil, a cement-based solution is required. It is best to purchase it in the form of a finished dry construction mixture for plasteringSince it already has all the necessary additives that make it plastic and convenient for work.

The solution can be made independently of two materials - it is plastering and glue cement mixwhich are taken in proportions 1: 1. To increase the plasticity of the solution, a tablespoon of liquid is added to it. detergent on 5 kg of finished mixture.

• The wall should be well cleaned, primed and sucked.
• The solution can be applied to its surface with a wide spatula or just with a hand in the rubber glove. The thickness of the applied layer should be equal to the thickness of the stencil strips. This moment will depend on which surface should have a brick - smooth or rough.
• Further, so that the stencil does not have a "lipacy" with a layer of applied solution and easily separated from it, it should be moistened with water - this can be done with a sponge or wet fabric. If the stencil is made of rubber, it can be simply added to the pelvis with water, but in this case it is necessary to wait for its surplus stack, otherwise the excessive moisture can spoil all the work.
• After that, the stencil is pressed against the fresh plaster and gently pressed, so that the relief of brick masonry remains on it.
• Further, the stencil is removed and applied further, next to the relief just sold. Here you need to try and attach it so that the masonry is even, and there is no distortion of its horizontal seams.
• When the relief is applied to the entire surface, it is left until complete burials.
• After drying, the wall is fully covered with one color - usually light shades are selected for this, since any color will be applied to them, as well as highlight a dark tinge or leave the masonry sutures.

Brickwork imitation staining is already a creative process, so you can afford various fantasies. In this case, of course, it is necessary to keep in mind that the selected color will set the mood of the entire interior of the room.

Creating a relief of brick masonry with the help of plaster and painting scotch

For this technology, reproduction on the wall of imitation of brickwork, the composition of the cement plastering solution and greater tape will be required above the composition of the cement plastering solution. Some masters use even the isolate, however, it is worse to glue the wall, and high-quality malarious tape has excellent adhesion with any surface.

The width of the tape should be no more than 14 mm, and if it was not possible to find the tape of such a width, then you will have to buy a wider and carefully cut it right in the sweat in the width. If its edges are not perfectly smooth - it is quite unstable, since this factor will not affect the accuracy of the relief, and even, rather, will play on the arm.

• The first step, the prepared surface of the facing wall is drawn under brickwork.

• Further, all the intended lines on the wall paste a greater tape. It should be fixed so that the edges of the horizontal segments of the Scotch come out beyond the edges of the surface being drawn up, and they should not be applied to them, and the vertical segments should be well glued to the horizontal, be sure to be on top of them.
• Then, on the surface of the wall, on top of the braided grid of the tape, with a wide spatula, a solution is applied, a layer thickness of 5 ÷ 6 mm - the elevation height will depend on this parameter. Do not apply too thick layer, otherwise you will have to shut up the seams by grouting.
• After applying the solution completely on the entire wall, it is possible to walk with a hand in a damp rubber glove to create surface texture. If it is planned to leave the surface of "bricks" smooth, then you should not touch the layer of the solution.

• The most interesting stage in this method of imitation of brickwork is the removal of painting scotch, since the relief of the wall will be immediately visible after this operation. Several scotch strips are drawn with one of the free sides and begin to gently flip from the wall, and as a result, the seams between the "brick tiles" are formed on the site of the recessed tape. After removing the adhesion from the entire surface, the wall must be left until complete graze.

• The dried wall before staining is recommended to be primed - this operation will make the surface more supplied for the next stage - staining, as the paint will fall on the surface exactly and does not absorb the plaster layer. What shades to choose for the wall is already depends on the preference of the wizard.

From all the above, we can conclude that the construction market has an oversupply of various materials, ideally imitating brickwork or other stone surfaces. Sometimes the quality of imitation is that when finished finishing it is impossible to distinguish from the real brick on texture and color. Well, if the finished tiles or panels do not fit into the family budget, it is quite possible to use one of the more economical ways, and decorate the wall, applying for this reasonable materials.

The idea of \u200b\u200brecreation in the house brick wall not new, but recently it has gained special popularity due to modern trend Free and nonstandard design of residential premises. If earlier the brick was used to decorate fireplace walls and more associated with cottage style, now it is confidently used in the design of rooms of various purposes.

In the case when the walls are lined with brick and such decoration is provided in the project, it is enough to level the seams and treat them with a special putty, then coat the surface with specialized wax or varnish.

You can also clean the brick wall from the plaster with the help of a grinding machine, but the necessary aesthetics of the laying that opens will not be guaranteed.

Obviously, making extra natural masonry, especially in the city apartment, is not always appropriate. In this case, simple imitation technologies will come to the rescue, familiarizing themselves with whom you can decorate the walls with your own hands.

Decor design with brick decor

Brick wall - an indispensable attribute of loft style apartments. Making imitation in this style, you need to provide the most natural look, while the drawing should be rough and negligent if possible, leaving the impression of the injustrial part of the production room.

A varied brick decor is used to create separate areas in the kitchen, in the living rooms and bedrooms.

Panels or solid walls under the brick allocate the working and dining area, the location of the home theater screen. The options for imitation of the brick wall proposed in the photo will make it possible to understand the nuances of its combination in various styles.

The brick wall can also become part of the thematic design of the children's room. Brick background with natural color is also perfect for the design of the eco-zone in the house with houseplantsplaced in stylish caspo. It is well combined with canned moss and artificial grass on the walls.

Emphasis door openings And protrusions are another field for decorating under the brick.

Decorative stucco for brick imitation

Imitation of textured plaster allows you to avoid thoroughly aligning the wall before work, moreover, and the final result does not require perfect smoothness.

Step-by-step performance looks like this:

Wall Preparation: Removal of Finishing, Magnification of Holes, Cleaning from Dust and Primer. Then you need to wait for the wall drying.

Kneading the plastering solution. Decoration will take place in stages on each square meter Surfaces, so the kneading is made small, twisted on the eye.

The desired proportions of water and powder are determined by the instructions on the package, the dye is added when mixing. When testing, the finished mixture should not crawl from the wall or collect with bunches.

Applying the main layer. With the help of a trowel and a spatula, with typical movements when finishing with plaster, the mixture is evenly applied to the wall, the excess solution is removed.

Application pattern. It is necessary to proceed to this responsible stage until the plaster layer hardened. Having made a preliminary note on the size of the brick, the wooden stick of the desired diameter is drawn lines imitating masonry.

In this case, the excess solution coming out during operation is removed using a cloth. Further, by the same scheme, the following sections of the wall are covered.

After the mixture has finally dried and hardened, the clock is performed and the correction of the pattern with the help of sandpaper.

There is another option to obtain a decorative seam. After applying the main layer of the plaster mix without a dye, a portion is mixed with the addition of a dye, which is prehasting the masonry lines, then a deepening is done. After clearing the edges, the painted layer remains only in the recesses.

Imitation of a brick decor using foam

The manufacture of a brick decor made of ceiling foam sheets is a simple and creative process. To obtain chaotic roughness and chips on the cut blanks, you can use the tools for a thread or soldering iron.

At the stage of painting, to give greater naturalness to the decor, you can experiment with different colors.

The easiest way to fasten bricks from foam - rings on a pre-cleaned and crushed surface of the wall. Billets are placed at a distance of 2 mm from each other.

Wallpaper under brick

Advantages of textured wallpapers for brick imitation: affordable price, easy and fast installation and hygienic care process.

The choice of the appearance of the wall at the same time will be limited to the design and quality offered by the manufacturer. The most naturally looks like wallpaper with a layer of foamed polymer.

Imitation panels

Such a finished decor is made of plastic masses and glued directly on the wall. At the same time, the preparatory stage is important to obtain an immaculately even and smooth surface of the walls.

This can be achieved by plaster or cladding of plasterboard, at which the heat insulating layer is also created.

You can also apply the method of inside the premises with wood, metal - for external walls of terraces, open balconies or facade. Plate catalogs with a variety of sizes, colors and textures for decoration of walls under the brick will make a choice for every taste.

Stencil and drawing brick on plaster

Finished lattice stencils made of rubber or plastics are tightly applied to an unworthy plaster making recesses that imitate brickwork.

The same effect can be achieved by hand, causing a stucco stucco with a random relief and drawing the line of bricks.

Corrugated cardboard decor and napkins

The chopped blanks from cardboard are fixed on the walls of PVC glue, while the glue is applied so that the edges remain free.

Then the surface of the blanks of billets with dense white paper napkins with a pattern appropriate by texture is performed. When gluing, you can add additional chips with compression napkins in random order.

At the next stage, characteristic bends are made at the edges of the billets, which are fixed with a glue gun. After drying, the decor is covered with a layer of varnish. This simplest way to simulate bricks in the interior is suitable for an accent decor on small squares.

Stock Foto Imitation brick wall

Brick is one of the most traditional for our country. building materials. Therefore, such an element of finishing, like brickwork, is widely used for decor of walls of rooms. Designers have long appreciated the wide creative possibilities of finishing walls under the brick: a variety of forms and color gamut of such a decor help create a very interesting and original interior.

Naturally, such ideas are implemented in different ways, taking into account all the capabilities of the owner, as well as the characteristics of the decorated room.

Wall decor options for brick

Instead of real bricks for finishing the interior in modern Decor. Other materials are often used, the structure of which externally resembles a brick surface.

The decoration of walls under the brick can be performed using materials and technologies such as:

• building panels;
• clinker tile;
• wallpaper under the brick;
• painting.

The advantage of such materials before the real brick masonry is that they are much easier for bricks and occupy a much smaller volume.

What kind of decor is better to choose to play a brick wall? Let's get closer to get acquainted with the most popular options for finishing walls under the brick. Knowing the features of each of them, you can easily create home unique wall decor.

1. Construction panels for bricks

Building panels - a real leader among "bricks", famous for its strength and waterproof. This finishing material has long conquered the foreign finishing market, and now found its application and in the interior.

These simulation panels are made of plastic. And this means that they are not afraid of dust, nor moisture, nor mold with rust. In addition, such panels under the brick are highly resistant to alkalis and acids, not completely afraid of hot droplets, so they are often used in the kitchen.

Benefits:

• ease of fastening;
• low weight;
• perfect appearance;
• minimum prices.

Disadvantages:

• For some panels, additional doom is required, so such a design takes a certain part of the useful space.

The panels under the brick are attached as horizontally and vertically, so the drawing on them depends on the method of location. They are mounted on nails, screws or screws. Most of these are attached directly on the wall.

In decorative panels under the brick, each element has its own independent fixation, so it is randomly damaged part of the "bricks" can be replaced in half an hour.

Important: Brick panels are perfect option Decor for the balcony, kitchen Apron or a crowded corridor.

2. Tile under the brick

An excellent alternative to bricks for cladding walls is a clinker tile. It is an inexpensive and very beautiful analogue produced from raw clay. In terms of its characteristics, the masonry method and the thickness of the tile under the brick is no different from the simple tile.

4. Decorative plaster under the brick

Imitation of stone brick masonry from plaster looks very effectively and unusual. In addition, it is very easy to make it yourself.

Benefits:

• variety of textures and colors;
• inflicting ease;
• beautiful insulation;
• environmentally friendly material;
• durable and practically does not need to care.

Disadvantages:

• can occupy useful space;
• low durability to pollution (dust attract);
• the surface for must be very smooth. There should be no noticeable scratches, bugro and depression.

Decorative plaster under the brick design:

• one wall in the room;
• niche or;
• "Bricks", arbitrarily located on a flat painted wall.

Important: This type of imitation is very like creative at creative parts, because it provides tremendous opportunities for fantasy flights.

5. Painting under the brick

A great way to decor walls under a brick - painting. The color for bricks is selected depending on the style of the room, your mood and individual taste.

Modern interior solutions that use such a "brick wall" most often belong to one of two styles:

1. Calm and cozy country requires soft pastel shades of "brickwork";
2. "Loft brickwork" in the style of painting can be made eccentric and with a special highlight.

A wonderful option for "brick" - elastomeric paint. It fills up all the cracks formed due to the shrinkage of the walls, protects the surface from moisture and strengthens it. For bright and multicolored decoration, acrylic and water-emulsion paints. They are applied with brushes of different thickness, and if it is required to create an additional dust-repellent or water-repellent coating, you can take a wide roller from fur.

Disadvantages:

• bad resistance to mechanical damage;
• cracks over time;
• not suitable for uneven walls;
• color in the jar and on the wall can be very different in shades.

Tip: To add realistic drawings made under the brick, you can take or add several millimeters from each brick to several millimeters.

Decorative design of the premises is made by a variety of ways. If we consider the cheapest and affordable self-implementing technology, then one of the simplest and cheap is the imitation of brickwork.

This option is applicable to almost any structures, regardless of the material of the walls. How to do it with your own hands, without attracting assistants, and especially experts, we will understand this article.

Step by step algorithm of action

Wall drawing

The easiest way is the long rail. Naturally, with precise observance of distances between horizontals (bricks have the same dimensions). You can focus on the standard. The thickness of the single - 6.5, one-time - 8.8, double - 13.8 (cm).

Applying simulation coating

There are many techniques, so we will be limited to the most common, based on the fact that the work is performed independently.

With the help of adhesive tape (painting scotch)

Before starting work, the wall must be painted in that color that the seams should be. As a rule, gray or white (or something intermediate). The fact is that depending on the components, their relations in the mixture dry solution acquires a different shade. Further indicate horizontal seams (tape sticker). After that, it is easy to highlight individual bricks, imitating the laying with a shift of products in adjacent rows (pieces of scotch are attached vertically).

Feature: Since the tape will have to be removed, there must be free ends sufficient to grab their fingers. After that, the prepared mixture is applied on the wall.

Important: The consistency of the solution should be such that it does not glare along the wall. And the layer should be applied minimum, not more than 2 - 3 mm.

Option number 1 - based on gypsum. But this material is quickly hardening. Therefore, it will be necessary to enter the mixture to enter the so-called "retarder". Its use leads to the fact that the layer of the gypsum solution does not harm for from 20 to 40 minutes. Otherwise, it will not be possible to remove the ribbon to designate the masonry seams.

Option number 2. - Plastering mixture + tile adhesive (1 to 1). In this case, the sand is used in the process of cooking only the smallest fractions. So you will have to specifically acquire, since the usual (from the river or from the career), even well-sized, will not suit.

disadvantages: With a large size of the object of the walls of the wall, the tape takes a mass of time and material itself. Too rapid solution of the solution can lead to the problems of extracting scotch from it to preserve the appearance of the picture.

By stencil

The method is more complicated, as you have to prepare the grid. It is made from a sheet of plastic or rubber, knocking in it rectangles.

In addition, it is advisable to create a template of subtle rivers, undoubted advantages of which are:

• the ability to work with solutions that quickly freeze, because they will have time to "grab" and dry;
• large selection of materials and flexibility in carrying out any complex of work. The form of the design fully repeats the elements already considered;
• the ability to create a template directly on the wall and images of any form;
• naturalness and naturalness of the appearance of the resulting brickwork.

disadvantages: Stencil needs to make or spend money for the purchase of a finished product.

Imitation of a brick wall of foam (ceiling tiles) with their own hands

For falsely, a smooth polystyrene tile is suitable without a picture. For our purposes, you can use any of its sides. Optimal size "Stone" - 7/15 cm. If you increase the proportion, the wall will look unnatural. The process of manufacturing "stones" is simple: squeeze them out of ceiling tile.

First we put on expanding the markup with letters on the seams. Next, we pay flat lines, after which we cut the "bricks" with a painting knife. Finished products stick with their own hands on the desired part of the wall. As a binder, we use glue for ceramic tiles. Here you will not need to fill the seams with the help of plaster. The gaps between the "stones" need to be made very small: 1-1.5 mm. After the end of the work on the sticker bricks need to paint. As a larger layer of paint, we try to apply to the gaps, thereby creating imitation of brickwork.

Imitation of a brick wall with their own hands from plaster (tile glue)

For the manufacture of parts, any tiled glue, which is sold as a dry mixture. It needs to be dissolved with water to the state of very thick sour cream. Best use composition white color. After that, we divide the whole mass into 3 parts, in each of which will add some paint.

It is important that the paint differ in each part by shade.

Mix the mass in each pile like the test. We will have a lot of beautiful divorces. Roll over the "damn" from it and cut the bricks of the same size. Lay them out for drying. So do it until you gain the required number of "stones".

We stick from the wall with the same tile glue. Seams fill in the composition painted in more dark color. At the end, the surface of the wall can be covered with several layers of varnish.

How to paint fake?

To get a more natural shade, two types of ocher should be mixed: light and red. Then add a small amount of Belil to them. In order for the texture of the brickwork, it looks like a real one, to apply the paints, use the reception of the switching.

We take the sponge and begin to apply a pre-cooked mixture on the wall. After that, there will be a liquid paint of the shade "Luggage". It is sprayed on bricks using a conventional toothbrush.

So that the decor looked even more natural, each row stain in a special way.

The second one can give the shade with the help of Mars, diluted with water. For the third - use Siena and Belil. All paints are applied in the same way of vanity. Then continue to alternate shades in the same order. Upon completion of the work, the wall is recommended to cover with varnish in two layers. If there is a desire to get a matte surface, then slightly pass the shallow emery paper.

This type of decoration has several subtleties, because by virtue of its characteristics, he can create a special atmosphere and clogged it.

It is worth remembering that masoning is completely optional in the area of \u200b\u200ball walls, it is enough to be one surface of four, decorated in this way. When planning actions, it is important that you represent a full image of your own room - and then everything will turn out.

Beautiful geometric relief of brick masonry little leaves indifferent. Maybe therefore, the brick over time does not lose its relevance not only as a constructive material, but also as a finishing.
There are many imitation materials, they are used to styling under the brick of concrete or block walls. But why imitation, if a facing decorative brick for interior decoration is best able to cope with this task?

There are many species facing bricks. There are options that are more often used for.
We will talk about what facing brick for interiors is best selection When implementing planning and design of premises.

Glazed and Relief Brick

Brick glazing technology takes its beginning since the time of ancient Egypt. It was used by different countriesAnd many of them had their technologies that were preserved until today.
So:

• Some glazes the raw brick, and then burn it, others apply the glaze on the burned brick, and subjected to secondary burning. Each technology provides a product with its physicomechanical properties, in accordance with which its price increases.

• And if the technologies are worked out by centuries, the decorative surface of the brick is regularly adjusted, due to the emergence of new trends in design and decoration. Standard red brick is not so popular now.
• The main purchasing demand falls on a brick with a finish of its face surface. And it can be not only glazed smooth, but also embossed, and an uncooked, that is, a coated composition of white clay, glass and quartz sand.

• As you understand, these species have the highest cost. It may vary depending on how much of his sides have a decorative coating: two or four.
• Brick with double-sided coating (spoons and stump) are used to masonry bearing walls or their cladding. With a thickness of masonry, one and a half or two bricks, on the one hand the decor will simply be seen.
  Why pay more for the brick, decorated from all sides?

• If you need to build, for example, the interior partition with a thickness of one brick, then the four-sided decor will give the opportunity to get a refined masonry at once in two rooms.

This is very relevant if you build or bought an apartment in a new building without finishing. In such apartments, as well as cottages and townhouses, there are no internal partitions, and the space is planned at the discretion of the owner who bought housing.

Erecting partition

In order for the design to be fame, the partition must be competent. And if you decide to do it with your own hands, two questions will be standing in front of you: "Where to start?", And "what decorative facing brick for interior decoration is better to choose?".
So:

• Start laying from the installation of apartments: both intermediate and angular. They are evoked with the help of a construction level and a plumb, although professional builders use levels for this.
  The order is a metal profile or a wooden bar to which serves serves, corresponding to each row of bricks.

• When lighthouses are laid out, apartments are recovered and fixed, the cords called the pages between them. It is they who provide the horizontal of the rows when making a masonry, and serve as a reference point for the position of each brick and equal thickness of horizontal seams.
• Brick to build a septum is better to choose a hollow, so much reduces the load on the supporting structures. To ensure the sustainability of the future partition, its rigidity is enhanced by performing anchoring.
  Metal anchor is one end to be laid in the seams between the bricks, and the other in the shutters, pierced in the bearing walls.
• Under the first row of masonry, the strip of rubberoid, and begin laying bricks along the axis of the partition. The masonry is made with suture dressing, by shifting each subsequent row to the half-brick.
  A small gap forming between the ceiling and masonry is filled with mounting foam.

• In principle, for the partition device without subsequent plastering, you can take clinker brick, and silicate. They can be simply coated with hydrophobic impregnation that protects the surface from absorbing moisture and smells.
• These types of brick have a dense and smooth front side. Therefore, the masonry is often simply covered with a hydrophobizer or color. No surface preparation, in addition to removing the influx of the solution, in this case, will not be required.

We outlined the process of building a brick partition only in general terms.
If you decide to take on your own for this work, be sure to watch the video. Master class from professionals is the best instruction.

Facing the bearing wall bricks

The construction of a brick partition from facial brick is just one of the options for obtaining brickwork for interior design.
But sometimes you need to bind the carriage wall:

• The ideal option when the interiors of the rooms are thought out in advance, at the construction stage of the house. In this case, the cladding of the walls is performed during the construction of walls.
  It is possible to decorate in the course of the masonry, you can not only the facade, but, if necessary, the inner walls.

• If you have finish and repairing the old house, then over the wall finishing options it is worth thinking. It is necessary to make a decision on the basis of the structural wall material.
  If the house is built of brick, create beautiful design The interior can be without additional cladding.
• The best option when the brickwork has not been placed before, and the wall was, for example, she was covered with a board or dry plaster. Then, removing the old coating, you can simply read the wall, the surface of the brick is sandpaper, primed and paint, as in the photo below.

• Watching walls you are unlikely to be able to fully release the masonry. Even if the plaster holds poorly, be sure to have a place where the perforator will have to apply, and they can damage the surface of individual bricks.
• This is the very case when decorative facing brick for interior decoration is simply necessary. His choice is carried out depending on which design of the premises you would like to embody.
  Perhaps even a few types of facing will take. You can see such a finish in the bottom of the bottom.

• It uses two types of decorative bricks of contrasting color, and with different reliefs. All the charm of this interior is that the facing are made by individual fragments and as if zoning the room is called the design.
• Even if the walls of the house are made of other structural materials: panels, blocks from cellular concrete, wood - they can also be bred by decorative bricks. But it is advisable only if you know exactly that the foundation of the house will endure an additional load.

• Of course, the finishing of small fragments of the walls will not create any problems. But if you want to build a whole wall or an entire room, the masonry should be based on the foundation or slab of the overlap, which may not withstand the weight of the cladding.
• Then to the aid comes ceramic tilestylized under the brick. On the example above, the walls of the room are lined with its help. But, not knowing this, few people guess that it is not a brick, but a tile.
• After finishing the house with facing brick, you can solve constructive tasks. One such task is to strengthen the bearing walls.
  For this purpose, the most durable, and, consequently, the most expensive, hyperpressed brick.

We have not mentioned about it today only for the reason that most often it is used for external cladding. Although, if there is a need to strengthen the walls from the inside, nothing prevents the use of brick in the interior too.
By the way, the imitation of brickwork can be performed with the help of the facade tile, which is produced by the same technology as the hyper-compressed brick.

A few words about brick design

Brickwork capable of decorating walls of any room, not just a living room or kitchen. For example, the interior of the corridor, the walls of which are erected from facing bricks and painted in one tone with the ceiling.
The monotony of such a decoration break the doors, lamps and frames of patterns of contrasting color.

So:

• In connection with brick design, it is impossible not to remember the style of Loft, whose business card is a combination of walls without finishing with expensive accessories and decorative coatings. In the interior, decorated in this architectural style you can see a naked brickwork, or concrete wall, and expensive flooring, Elegant ceiling construction, or a magnificent wroughtted staircase.
  Against the background of deliberate simplicity, in such a room you can see magnificent furniture and lamps under the antique.

• In this style, any room can be decorated, even a bathroom. An example of this interior, we also want to imagine.
  Most often, without finishing leave only one or two walls. Also produce the design of the walls and in the case when the design laying is not decorated, and the cladding is performed.
• And in this case, the room is lined completely, but different species Brick. Moreover, unusual pearl paint was used for staining.
  The result was an unusual and original bathroom interior.

• Loft style is not the only one, where the design uses brickwork. There are other styles like ancient: English, Mediterranean, Modern, Art Deco, and more modern, for example: High-tech or fusion. By the way, between Loft and Fusion styles there is something in common.
  Namely, mixing. Only in the loft is mixed with cheap and expensive, and in the style of fusion - various forms and elements of other styles.

In conclusion, we can conclude that the brick was and for a long time will remain in priority - and not only in the finish of the facades, but also in the design of the premises. Selecting a brick to create beautiful interior In her house, you are unlikely to have to regret it.
Provided, of course, all the conditions and technological processes were observed.
