Feature walls are a transformative magic that can elevate the ambiance of your home without requiring a complete overhaul. By offering a number of possibilities to breathe life into any room, these singular design elements possess the remarkable ability to spotlight the architectural details that make your home unique. By installing feature walls, you can accentuate a room's height or maximise available space, all while creating distinct zones within your living space.
Feature Walls - How To Start With Creating?
Crafting the perfect feature wall requires a thoughtful approach, one that harmonises with your home's existing aesthetics. It all starts with a discerning eye and a vision. Begin by taking a stroll through the rooms of your home, and cast your eyes around all the details. Those awkward corners that seem unwilling to host anything of significance are ripe for transformation. Pay close attention to the natural gems of your home, such as alcoves and fireplaces, that deserve a spotlight of their own. These are some of the focal points where you can introduce a splash of colours, patterns, and lights through a feature wall… sky's the limit (or the ceiling!). Read on for five ideas to get you started.
