    WHAT IS AN ACCENT WALL?

    An interior wall that differs from all the others in the room by style, colour, pattern, or material is called an accent wall (also called a featured wall). It is often the defining feature of a room, providing the room with unique character and feel.

    WHY CREATE AN ACCENT WALL IN YOUR HOME?

    If you want to liven up your space and give it a brand new personality, a bold accent wall is your best option. Make a statement piece that represents your personality and character. When executed right, an accent wall can give the illusion of a larger space. Even in a small room, an accent wall painted with a dark colour can give depth to the room. In addition, an accent wall in your room highlights features you want to accentuate such as a beam or baseboards & crown moulding that you have installed. 

    ACCENT WALLS DO'S AND DONT'S

    DO’s

    • A fresh coat of different paint;
    • Paint pattern on the accent wall;
    • Decorative wallpaper;
    • Wall panelling with standard moulding materials;
    • Wall panelling with tile or stone.

    DONT’s

    • Do not choose an accent wall design at random, make sure it fits with the look and feel of your overall vision;
    • You want to draw attention to the wall where your eyes are most of the time, like the wall where your TV is mounted. Placing the accent wall on the wrong wall can distort the room;
    • Avoid placing a feature wall in a space that already contains multiple design elements. This will create confusion and a busy overall look;
    • Going minimal in your design will often make the room feel bigger and the design stand out more. That is not to say that you should be afraid of using geometric patterns, just don’t make it too busy! For the best results, contact one of our accent wall professionals for a free consultation.

    INSTALLATION PROCESS

    PREP WORK

    Our carpenters measure the wall and prepare it for the upcoming work, which involves taking down the outlets and/or any previous trim work, filling nail holes and sanding in order to make the canvas perfectly smooth for the project.

    STEP 1

    CUTTING

    Next, the accent wall installer cuts the necessary material, ensuring that the material's dimensions and various angles follow the chosen template to create seamless transitions.

    STEP 2

    INSTALLATION

    The carpenter then installs the accent trim, mounting the pieces as per the agreed upon design.

    STEP 3

    CAULKING AND FINISH

    Our carpenters cover up the brad nail holes and caulk the transitions and spaces between the trim and the wall to create a consistent look without any gaps. Project complete!

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    What are the guidelines for an accent wall, and which wall should be the accent wall?

    An accent wall should be ONLY one wall in a room, and it is usually the one you first see when you enter the space. It should be a plain, symmetrical wall and not have any furniture blocking it. Of course, there are accent walls that break these rules and look great so feel free to reach out to us with any questions!

    Should every room have an accent wall?

    Accent walls look great in any room, but we would recommend saving this feature for rooms of at least medium or large size to avoid a crowded look.

    How do accent walls affect a room?

    An accent wall can give an illusion of a bigger or deeper space. It highlights the other design elements in the room and gives a stylish, personalized look.

    Can you have two accent walls?

    We would not recommend it as the point of the trim on the wall is to create a focal point that grabs the attention of anyone entering it. Creating 2 focal points will create confusion and discrepancy in the overall aesthetics of the room.

    Do you paint the accent wall first or last?

    This depends on the design of your accent wall. If the color of the trim and the wall will be the same, then it should be easy enough to paint both at the same time without much taping. Some people opt out to have the wall in one color and the trim another, in which case separate painting will save you time on taping. Personal preference also plays a big role here as this question does not have 1 right answer.

    Do accent walls make a room look bigger or smaller?

    Accent walls provide details and depth to a room, making it look and feel larger.
