How To: Accent Walls

Fratantoni Luxury Estates • May 4, 2020

This article will discuss how to implement accent walls into your luxury home.

Designers have embraced accent walls as a method of drawing attention to a specific portion of a room or space. An accent wall can be used to draw attention to an architectural feature in a room. For example, you can use bold paint or wallpaper to extenuate a key feature like a fireplace or built in. If you are looking to add a pop of color to bring character into a room, simply pick the wall that stands out the most to you. If you are unsure, our design team, Fratantoni Interior Designers , are here to help you every step of the way.

Award Winning Kitchens

Although accent walls can be big and bold, it’s also possible to make a modern statement in a subtle way. There is a great variety of options available that includes not just traditional paint, but wallpaper, borders, and decals. Choosing which area to highlight depends on what you hope to achieve.

Build Process

However, be careful to avoid obscuring your accent wall with a large object, such as ceiling-to-floor drapes, windows, or an enormous wardrobe. If the wall is covered, then you will lose its dramatic impact. To create the perfect balance in the room, make sure to design the wall accordingly so it is not understated

Adding accent walls to your home will change the whole feel of the space. Without overwhelming the room, adding a unique design to the wall will create an inviting environment that will leave your guests wanting more.
