All about how to use sonoma oak in the interior

Color Characteristic

Sonoma oak is a unique, polysyllabic shade. It harmoniously combines gray, silver, pinkish, milky, beige, brown, golden tones. Multicolored veins intertwine with each other in different proportions, create a unique heterogeneous effect that can not be confused with any other. Sometimes such unity creates a warm, sandy tandem, sometimes, if more gray, cold. 

Many people know the light oak of Sonoma. But in fact, there are both light and dark varieties of it. An abundance of brown, and sometimes almost black streaks can form a rich cognac or coffee color, but pink and gray undertones are preserved. 

Application in the interior

This color is actively used for the decoration of living spaces. How exactly? Let's talk about the most popular options. 

Sonoma oak as the color of furniture

Perhaps most often this coating is applied to pieces of furniture. How does this happen? Usually furniture in this color is made of chipboard or MDF. 

Chipboard laminated chipboard. It is an economical material. The plates are formed from chips, which are glued together by formaldehyde resins. 

MDF fiberboard. It is also made of shavings. Fine wood fibers are pressed at high temperature, they secrete natural resins, these resins act as a binding component. 

Both types of plates are not distinguished by beauty. Therefore, a special finishing coating is applied on top of them. It creates an imitation of natural wood. As a coating can be used:

The texture and color of Sonoma oak for furniture, as in the photo in the gallery, can be recreated in plastic or in PVC film. Such furniture is used in any residential premises. In the living room there are TV cabinets, consoles, coffee tables, shelving, partitions for zoning space. In the bedroom there are beds, bedside tables, cabinets, shelves. In the kitchen there are facades of a headset, a countertop, a dining table. There is a cabinet under the sink in the bathroom. 

Floor covering

Both light and dark shades of such wood are used by manufacturers for the manufacture of laminate, quartz vinyl, as well as linoleum. There is also porcelain stoneware for wood in this color.

Light floor is a universal solution, it is harmonious with any color of walls, furniture. Another significant plus is that the dust is not so noticeable on the light floor. Dark, on the contrary, requires a more thoughtful approach. It works well in combination with the contrasting color of walls and furniture. If the furniture is dark, let it differ by several tones from the floor covering. By the way, designers are destroying the myths that a dark floor reduces space. With a well-chosen color of the ceiling and walls, everything happens exactly the opposite. 

Doors

Both entrance and interior doors are decorated in this color. If we talk about interior, then you can find canvases of various designs: swing, sliding, folding. Most often, they, like furniture, are made of chipboard, chipboard and MDF in a PVC film coating. 

In such cladding there are blind doors or with glass inserts. Now models of a simple form, without additional decor, are in demand. Canvases with figured glass inserts, especially matte ones, have also lost their relevance. You need to be more careful with the king models. It is better to prefer solid, "deaf" canvases. 

Wall decoration

Wall cladding with wooden panels has become fashionable along with the trend for environmental friendliness of the interior. What could be closer to nature than a natural tree? This trend was picked up by manufacturers of wood analog products. And made it available.

Decorative wall panels are made of MDF, chipboard, chipboard, PVC. There are the usual flat models. And there are three-dimensional 3D canvases. Inexpensive examples of such decor are easy to find in any construction hypermarket. Light or dark shades are used to decorate the panels. 

Combinations with other colors

The issue of successful color solutions should be considered separately for light and dark shades of Sonoma oak.

Finding companions for such shades is a little more difficult. But quite doable. 

Application in different styles

We have already said that sonoma is a universal color and is suitable for different areas of design. 

Scandinavian style

Light oak wood paired with white paint is practically a Scandi-style business card. At the same time, if we talk about proportions, white more often prevails, and wood complements and shades it. It can be a light coffee table on thin wooden legs. Console or cabinet, painted white, but with a table top the color of natural wood. A snow-white kitchen set with a countertop in a shade of sonoma. An elegant bed. Light wood is also used to finish the floor, and sometimes the walls. 

Modern classics

Sonoma oak is distinguished by a noble, not too pronounced wood texture. This is ideal for neoclassical style interiors.

You can use both dark and light views. Combine them with silver, golden metals. At the same time, modern classics are more democratic. Therefore, furniture can be made of traditional material, but have an interesting, unusual shape. And in the color of Sonoma oak, translucent partitions are erected, it is chosen for the floor. 

Minimalism

And why not? The Sonoma shade, though polysyllabic, is restrained, as are the minimalistic interiors themselves.

For such spaces, light, slightly bleached or grayish options are more suitable. Although now designers say: minimalism is getting "warmer" and softened. The palette changes. The cold range is inferior to the warm one. And in this case, sonoma with its yellowish, golden elements comes in handy.
