As people's pursuit of a sense of delicacy and luxury is getting higher and higher, every link in interior design has become more exquisite. In addition to the hidden design of "seeing the light but not seeing the light", the design of the baseboard is also popular as "there are feet but no feet".
Today, let's talk about the invisible embedded baseboard from the following aspects:
1. What is an invisible embedded baseboard?
2. The process practice of embedded baseboard
01. What is an invisible recessed baseboard?
1. Concept
Invisible embedded baseboard refers to making a small groove in the wall, or using the thickness of the finish to form a natural groove, and then embedding the baseboard in the groove, after the construction is completed, the surface of the baseboard is concave in the finished surface of the wall or flush with the wall, so as to achieve the invisible effect as if embedded in the wall.

Common materials for baseboards are stone, wood, tile, metal, PVC, etc. Invisible embedded baseboards are often more used in metal, mainly stainless steel and aluminum alloy.
2. Features
a. It can better protect the wall.
b. It can make the transition and connection of the upper and lower spaces more natural, harmonious and unified with the wall, and the decorative effect is better.
c. Usually metal baseboard, the material is more durable and has a longer service life.
d. Cover the gaps and hide the line.
e. It is more convenient to maintain, and the furniture can be placed against the wall.
3. How to achieve a better "invisible" effect?
Generally speaking, if you want the baseboard to be less conspicuous, it is best to choose the same color, material, texture, etc. as the floor, wall, and door cover, so that it looks harmonious and unified.
a. Same color as the wall
The easiest way to achieve the "invisible" effect of the baseboard is to choose an embedded baseboard in the same color as the wall, which is also a cost-effective choice for visual coordination.
b. Same color as the ground
For spaces with relatively high floor heights, the baseboard can choose a color similar to that of the floor or tile, and if the color and material can be the same, then it can be integrated.
c. Same color as door cover
Following the color selection of the door cover, it is not only visually coordinated and unified, but also presents an integrated line effect with the door frame.
02. The process of invisible baseboards
Generally, the installation process types of baseboards include wall-mounted (surface-mounted), flat wall, and in-wall. Among them, both flat wall and in-wall can be used as invisible embedded baseboards.
1. Flat wall type
The essence of the flat wall type is also embedded, but the effect made is the flat wall.
Peculiarity:
Maintain unity with the wall
Do not easily hide dirt and dirt
Good looks
Easy to care for and hygienic
Generally, the flat wall type can be divided into slotted type and non-slotted type according to different process practices.
a. Slotted type
Slotted type, usually according to the height and thickness of the baseboard and the thickness of the finishing layer, groove at the bottom of the wall, and then stuff the baseboard in, and then scrape putty to level the baseboard and the wall.
The slotted type is usually suitable for walls with a paint finish.

The specific construction process is:
(1) Preparation for construction
(2) Wall slotting
(3) Decorative surface on the wall
(4) Ground material paving
(5) Install the baseboard
(6) Wall trimming
(The construction sequence of the wall and floor can be adjusted according to the project)

b. Non-slotted type
Non-slotted, usually according to the thickness of the wall finish layer to choose the corresponding baseboard thickness, so that the baseboard and the finished surface of the wall finish layer are flush.
It is usually suitable for gypsum board walls, wood veneer walls, etc.

The specific construction process is:
(1) Preparation for construction
(2) Ground material paving
(3) Install the wall cladding (if there is a board that needs to be coated with a decorative surface, this step will be completed)
(4) Install baseboards
(5) Wall finishing
(The construction sequence of the wall and floor can be adjusted according to the project)

2. In-wall type
The surface of the in-wall baseboard is recessed in the finished surface of the wall, and the effect is that the bottom of the wall is hollow, creating the illusion of "levitation".
Peculiarity:
No dust, easy to maintain
Improve the visual impact of the space
The sense of hierarchy is relatively strong
There is plenty of room to hide the light strip
According to the different process practices, the in-wall type is also divided into slotted type and non-slotted type.
a. Slotted type
Slotted type, usually according to the height and thickness of the baseboard at the bottom of the wall, and then the baseboard is stuffed in, and then scraped putty leveling, so that the baseboard is embedded in the wall.
The slotted type is usually suitable for walls with a paint finish.

b. Non-slotted type
Non-slotted type, usually because the wall is made of gypsum board, wood veneer and other decorative boards, there is no need to groove on the wall base layer to achieve the effect of embedding the baseboard in the finished surface of the wall finishing layer.
It is usually suitable for gypsum board walls, wood veneer walls, etc.

3. Precautions
a. Usually in the hydropower stage, the bottom of the wall slotting process is carried out, and the slotting size should be determined according to the size of the selected baseboard and the thickness of the wall finishing layer. Usually the slotting depth is about 2cm, and it is best not to damage the wall structure.
b. No matter which process method, ground practice and baseboard style are selected, it should be ensured that the gap between the wall and the ground can be completely pressed after the baseboard is installed.
c. If the baseboard is installed first, and then the wall is painted, the depth of the putty layer needs to be reserved, and then the baseboard is installed, and leveling is carried out to ensure that the baseboard is horizontal and vertical.
d. When the flat wall slotted baseboard is installed, it is difficult to ensure that the finished surface and the finished surface of the wall are on a vertical surface, so the construction technical requirements will often be higher.
