Looking to up your game in the plasterboard department? Whether you’re a contractor or a homeowner-to-be in the building process, plasterboard is the key to unlocking unique and interesting design for modern homes.

The truth is plasterboard has so much potential for getting creative and elevating interior design. But 99% of the plasterboard we sell is destined to become plain, flat, white wall.

Sure, there’s nothing wrong with that – a plain white wall is functional and practical. But plasterboard has the possibility for more, and that’s what we’ll cover in this post.

Let’s look at the top trends in plasterboard applications for modern homes, outlined by the industry experts at Plaster Wholesalers.

Unique designs

Plasterboard is a totally customisable material and can easily be modified to create a unique interior design – in more ways than one. From custom textures like stucco and 3D panelling, to curved walls and ceilings, to adjustable partitioning walls which can create separate or unified living spaces, there are endless ways to create unique interior designs using plasterboard.

These applications for modern homes are much simpler and more cost-effective than traditional alternatives, making plasterboard design a trending aspect of modern architecture.

Intricate lighting

Good lighting is one thing, intricate lighting is another. Plasterboard opens up a myriad of possibilities for creating intricate lighting design in homes. LED lighting strips can be installed behind plasterboard recesses, adding a sophisticated, classy touch to any space in your home.

Just take a peek at Google Images and Pinterest to get some inspo on intricate lighting designs, made available by unique plasterboard techniques.

From kitchens to bathrooms, living rooms to outdoor areas, plasterboard facilitates intricate lighting in all areas of the modern home. This is thanks to the vast range of specialty plasterboards available, including wet areas plasterboard and external plasterboard.

Tech integration

Lighting isn’t the only thing that can be integrated and improved by plasterboard; technology is another top plasterboard trend in modern homes.

With plasterboard, you can recess just about anything. A TV built into your living room wall; a speaker system, concealed in your kitchen; wireless phone-charging stations in your bedroom wall… literally anything is possible when it comes to tech integration and plasterboard customisation.
