Material Layout Finish

01 — Find your direction

Choose an accent wall style.
Make it your own.

Use these ideas to start a conversation. Materials and the exact work are confirmed for your project.

Wood slat accents

Vertical lines and a wood finish can give a room a more architectural feel. Discuss the panel or slat material, spacing and how it meets the edges of your wall.

Discuss this style

Geometric trim & board and batten

From orderly panels to a more expressive layout, trim adds depth. Bring a reference image so the proportions and finish can be discussed for your space.

Discuss this style

Painted accent walls

A contrasting color can create a focal point without a raised pattern. Consider the room’s light, existing furniture and the preparation the surface needs.

Discuss this style

Wood panel & shiplap ideas

Horizontal or vertical panels can change the character of a wall. The material, seams, profile and finish should be chosen together.

Discuss this style

Style diagrams are illustrative. Have another finish in mind? Bring a reference image and we’ll discuss whether it fits your project.

02 — Find the right place

Accent walls for living rooms,
bedrooms & beyond.

The best starting point is the room itself: what you see, how you use it and what you want to highlight.

01

Living rooms & TV areas

Frame the space behind your sofa or TV. Consider furniture proportions, cables, outlets and how much of the pattern will remain visible.

02

Bedrooms

Create a backdrop for your headboard. The bed width, bedside furniture and lighting help set the scale of the wall.

03

Entries & stairwells

Bring character to a transition space. Height, access, corners and the view from different levels all matter to the layout.

Look closer

Texture you notice.
Details that belong.

Wood grain, panel spacing and the way a finish meets the surrounding surfaces all shape the result. A reference image can help explain the feeling you want, while your wall dimensions help define the proportions.

Discuss your wall

Reference photography for inspiration.

03 — Define the details

Planned around
your wall.

An attractive pattern is only part of the project.

07 — Before you begin

Accent walls.
Your questions, answered.

How much does accent wall installation cost in Chicago?

The price depends on the wall size, material, layout complexity, surface condition and finishing work. Tell us your approximate dimensions and the look you have in mind for a personalized estimate.

Can you work from a reference photo?

A reference image is a useful starting point. Share the details you like and the room where you want the wall. The material, proportions and installation scope are discussed for your property.

How long does an accent wall project take?

Timing depends on preparation, material availability, the design and any painting or finishing stages. Discuss your preferred timeframe when requesting an estimate; the schedule is agreed for the project.

Are materials and painting included?

These are agreed individually. Before booking, clarify who supplies the materials and whether wall preparation, primer, paint, stain and other finishing work are included in the estimate.

Which wall should I choose in a living room or bedroom?

Start with the room’s natural focal point, such as the wall behind a sofa, TV or headboard. Consider the furniture, daylight, openings and how much of the wall will remain visible.

What about outlets, switches and existing trim?

Mention them when describing your wall. Their positions affect the layout and edge details. Any work involving electrical components or changes to existing trim needs to be clarified separately before installation.

Can I discuss wallpaper or another finish?

Yes—tell us the finish you are considering, along with any product information or reference images. We will discuss whether the proposed material and project fit our available services.

Are accent walls out of style?

A feature wall works best when it belongs to the room. Choosing a suitable material, color and scale is more useful than following a single trend. Consider how the wall relates to the rest of your home.
