Interior walls typically divide the apartment into individual rooms, such as a living room, bedroom, and kitchen.

As a result, the panels have a nice, uniform color and regular pattern. Veneer panels for the wall in the living room can be protected with oil or varnish, smooth or grooved, matte, satin, or high-gloss varnished.
