Tips to create Statement Walls in your house

" Design is thinking made visible. "

– Saul Bass

Decorating statement walls is a fantastic way to add a unique touch to your home. Whether you're looking to create a bold statement or simply add a touch of texture, an accent wall can transform any space. Here are some tips to help you get started.

statement and curated designs for specialised spots

  1. Start with deciding which wall you want to highlight, this can be the wall behind your bed, the wall in your living room, a wall in your dining area, or even a wall in the entrance hallway. 

  2. Choosing a colour scheme is an essential step in decorating your accent wall. Consider the mood you want to create in the room and choose a colour that will complement your existing decor. Bold colours like red or blue can add energy to a space, while more muted tones like grey or beige can create a calming effect.

  3. It works best to select a focal point for your statement wall. This could not only be a piece of artwork but also any bold wallpaper, large mirrors, or a wall of a picture gallery. 

  4. Considering a bold colour will help your statement wall stand out. You can use bold colour paint, a mural, or patterned wallpaper to create your themed wall.

  1. Consider texture Adding texture to your accent wall is a great way to create a visual focal point. You can use materials like brick, wood, or stone to add depth and interest to the wall. For a more subtle look, consider adding wallpaper with a textured pattern. Adding texture to your statement wall can make it stand out even more.

  2. Don’t be afraid to try different things, try to mix and match different patterns, colours and textures to create something unique. You can try a combination of wallpaper and paint to achieve a layered effect.

  3. Create a gallery wall Creating a gallery wall on your accent wall is a great way to display artwork and add a personal touch to your space. Choose a collection of artwork or photographs that complement your existing decor, and arrange them in a way that feels balanced and visually interesting.

  4. Add shelves Adding shelves to your accent wall is another great way to add function and style to your space. Consider using floating shelves to display books, plants, or other decorative items. Choose a finish that complements your existing decor, like a natural wood or a modern black finish.

  5. It is important to keep balance. Keep in mind that the rest of the room must maintain balance or be subtle to complement your statement wall without overwhelming it. 

Last, but not least, proper lighting can make your statement wall stand out even more. Adding accent lighting to your accent wall can create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Considering accent light, task light or even highlighting your focal point can add the correct amount of drama to your space. Also, installing sconces or other lighting fixtures to highlight the wall and create a cosy feel.

 

P.S.: Remember, designing your statement wall is all about making a bold choice for your space that could reflect the vibe of your space. Do have fun with the process and don’t be afraid to take risks.
