Hi all,
I am planning to do something with this interior brick wall between living room and kitchen. I feel like the color is just too dark and I want something brighter, possibly plastering it.
Could anyone suggest how to renovate this? Thanks in advance!
Hello @tonytr
Thank you for sharing your question about your interior brick wall. There are several ways to modify your brick wall, first would be to paint it. This would be the most straightforward modification you can do that will not take a great deal of effort as the brick itself is not going to be modified. The door can also be painted in the same colour so that you'll have a uniform finish. Next is the installation of EasyVJ panels or Castellated panels for a modern look. This will involve the installation of timber battens so that the panels can be properly anchored to your brick wall.
The last option is to render the surface of the brick wall. This will give your wall that flat masonry finish which will blend in with the plasterboard walls you might have around your home. Once the render cures, it is possible to paint the surface with the Dulux wall effect paint. It will be able to give you different finishes and wall textures.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
