- Natural wood from various breeds of the massif. Such walls are strong, durable and expensive. As a rule, these designs are purchased with the condition that the design of the room will not change for many years.
- Lumber. This is MDF, particleboard, fiberboard. Although their characteristics, the walls of the above raw materials are much inferior to wood products, they respond well to processing and combine well with various finishes. Especially beautiful look glossy surfaces of furniture.
