Wainscoting has a reputation as a rustic material, but it can also be stylishly incorporated into more sophisticated spaces, as seen here.
To add texture and height to this contemporary living room, we chose beaded HDF panels with a 4'' linear motif. Each 4' x 8' panel (2.97 m2 or 32 sq. ft.) installs easily on the ceiling or wall with a minimum of technical know-how. Both elegant and economical, these faux wainscoting panels come pre-painted in white, but can be repainted to match your space.
KEY DECORATING TIPS
- Wainscot-style wall panels installed vertically to add depth and height to the room
- Black and white for a contrasting aesthetic that feels modern
- A jute rug for a touch of natural warmth
- Colourful bohemian accessories to personalize the neutral, classic hues of the baseline decor
- A decorative ladder to store magazines
