Have you ever felt that your home is not as inviting as it should be? Do you ever feel like the place is not cheerful and doesn’t give a positive vibe? Or do you ever look at an empty wall or hallway in your apartment and think that it needs more personality? Doesn’t matter what the case may be, we got you covered. The only requirement is an accent wall.
Accent walls play a special role in accentuating the aesthetics of the room and making the particular area the focal point. In case you don’t want to take a risk and color the whole house in bold colors, accent walls are perfect for you.
To start with you have to decide the area which requires the uplift and then decide the style and color you want to go forward with. Accent walls don’t have to be just in the living room or bedroom. They can be anywhere from your kids’ rooms to the bathroom and even the hallway. In case you are renovating the entire theme, good, you can choose whatever suits your personality. But in case, the accent wall is a second thought, you have to consider the style, theme and color pattern that you already have at your place and go with the flow. Accents walls have recently made a comeback and we can safely say that they are here to stay. They can transform your place, at a fraction of the price.
There are a variety of different ways that you can put up an accent wall in your home. So, what are we waiting for? Let us start with the different styles and textures in which you can have an accent wall:
Wood Pallets
Let’s begin with our personal favorite and the one that is most in trend right now. Wood Pallets! You can create amazing accent walls with wood panels. They are just like wood flooring. They look sleek and elegant and can take your accent wall to the next level. The cost of a single wall would be approximately the same as the wooden flooring.
You can choose different designs, styles and patterns to create a focal point in your room. Neutral wood tones provide a warm and cozy environment. You can even go creative and make geometrical patterns on the wall with wood panels. In case you are a fan of Bohos-Style living room décor, you should seriously consider wood pallets. In case you want a bold look, you can also paint the wood panels to bring some drama into the room. To know more about wood pallet designs call us at +91- 9892343410.

Look for the patterns that you like the most, go online and do some homework. Or just leave a query at info@elevationinterior.com and our team of experts will get back to you with the latest trendy geometric patterns for your wall. If you are going for a budget-friendly option, this is the style you should go for.

Upholstered Pattern
Upholstered accent walls are more recent. People are still getting to the idea of tufted upholstered walls, may it be in leather or any other fabric, but it is catching up fast. It gives a royal and sophisticated look, it’s something new and definitely makes a statement. You get an upholstered accent wall, you don’t need to point it out to your guests, they are going to talk about it themselves. However, let us point out the cons too, they require constant upkeep and in case you go in for leather or leatherette, one small cut can ruin your whole look.

Tiles
What’s not to like about tiles? They are easy to maintain, a one-time investment, have multiple styles and patterns and above all, they are budget-friendly. They are textured and go well with the lighting in the room. You can choose from a variety of options from casual to formal settings. Just to let you in on a secret, mandala art tiles are really catching our eye. 3D tiles are just a treat to look at. Also, don’t be confused that tiles are just meant for bathrooms or kitchens. They have successfully paved their way to the living and dining area, especially the 3D patterned tiles. In case you are on a tight budget, there are many peel-and-stick patterns available online but we do have to point out here that they are not very durable.

Wallpapers
Since we are talking about accent walls, we better not forget about wallpapers. Wallpapers have been there for ages now and they are still going strong. And rightly so. For starters, they are cost-effective, durable and easy to put up. Also, in case you get bored after some time, you can replace them with a fraction of the price of wood pallets or functional walls.

Vertical Garden Wall
As we already mentioned, accent walls are not limited to your living room or bedroom. You can create an accent wall in your hallway, bathroom or even on your balcony. Put up a vertical garden and see how nature works its wonders to bring peace and tranquillity into your life. Create a falling garden look, and put up a small surface space with some folding chairs, we can bet, this is the area where you will be sipping your tea from now on.

Ceiling Accent
You heard us right! Don’t forget the ceilings, they are a part of your home too. We often pay so much attention to the four walls of the room that we forget about the ceiling. May we further add, don’t shy away from colored ceilings. We all know we can add chandeliers and do some Plaster of Paris (POP) design to the ceiling, but if you really want to jump onto the wagon, add color to the ceiling and see the difference. Let us assure you, you will not be disappointed.
