Using wood panels indoors is a smart way to combine design and function. Wood panels give the room a warm and timeless character, while improving acoustics – especially when the panels are designed as acoustic panels.
A wall covered in wood not only changes the look of the room, but also the acoustic environment. In homes with open spaces, hard floors and large windows, sound can easily bounce and create unpleasant reverberation. By using a wood panel as an acoustic panel , you get a room that feels both quieter and more cozy.
Common locations for acoustic wood panels are living rooms, bedrooms or home offices. A ribbed walnut wood panel behind the sofa or as a background wall in the bedroom is both an eye-catcher and an effective solution for dampening sound. For those who prefer lighter interiors, there are also options in oak or ash, which fit well in Scandinavian style.
One wooden panel – two functions
What makes wooden acoustic panels extra popular is that they don't look like a technical solution – they blend in like a designer piece of furniture on the wall. Installation is also relatively simple and the panels are delivered in ready-made modules that are quickly assembled with screws.
Whether the goal is to improve the sound in a room or to create a more exclusive interior, a wooden panel indoors is a good choice. It provides both visual impact and better acoustics, making the panel a smart and sustainable investment.

The panels can be screwed onto studs and are often supplied in pre-assembled sections, making installation quick and easy.
Does it really improve acoustics?
