Was just about to write white-painted vertical/horizontal beadboard 95mm wide, but then saw that the other walls were plastered, so I almost agree with "andrhedb". I think 95mm white-painted råspont, vertical or horizontal, I think matters less, go with what is easiest.
Råspont goes well with plastered walls.

Oki....correct me if I'm wrong now...but råspont is the same as what you use for paneling on the house?....how much gap should you leave between the boards and should you have the "raw" side facing out?
bring on the tips...

found råplan at beijer now....is it formvirke or finsågat I should have? how much is needed per square meter if you look at e.g. 22*95 and have some gaps between?

Spend the extra kronor on fine-sawn. It will probably be rustic enough. I have a whole upper floor of 85m2 with fine-sawn raw tongue and groove on the walls. Looks nice, you see. Then you can paint it with an exterior glaze if you want an easy paint job. Go for unbroken white, we chose a lightly broken white that has become noticeably yellower/darker after a few years, likely because the wood yellows a bit since the glaze isn't fully opaque.
On white, you can get knots showing through as usual on paneling, so if you care to in the closet, seal the knots a bit beforehand. However, the show-through is not quite as ugly as if you paint with a water-based indoor paint; the exterior glaze seems to have something in it that slightly counteracts it.

Horizontal or vertical, your choice. We have vertical with 3 mixed widths approximately 65, 90, and 115 (i.e., standard dimensions that have "shrunk" with tonguing) but considered horizontal in another part of the house. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures here at work. I'll see if I remember to upload them. Ours was installed snugly, and today the gaps are up to 3-4 mm in the worst spots when it's humid. Our paneling was installed in late summer 2002, and it was an extremely sunny summer, but the humidity was probably reasonably high, hence the gaps. If you buy 95 wide, it usually gives a covering width of 88, which typically provides about 11.4 lpm/m2. 68.4 linear meters + margin for waste.
Ok, here you see both painted with white outdoor stain, Fasadlasyr V from Alcro I think it is. Tinted with a hint of black. In the bedroom, there's a yellow variant, I think it was a standard color.
It looks scruffy and blotchy at the bottom near the stairs because it's not finished when the picture was taken.
I messed up a bit and painted in stages, which is not smart with stain.

Hey, I actually chose raw boards just to get the rough surface, otherwise, I would have bought planedtrojlee said:looks really nice

But as Saxpy describes what he did is a variant that can save money compared to planed.
