Baton Rouge Residential Contractors: Wall Trends for the New Year

The walls in each room of your home offer a lot more than places to hang shelves and pictures. They create as much function as they do fashion. Furthermore, each room serves a different purpose and likely has a different feel in order to provide your desired atmosphere. While floors, fixtures, and furniture receive the bulk of attention when remodeling and redecorating, updating or upgrading the walls in the rooms of your home can completely change how they look and how they are used. 

 

Here is a look at what the wall trends are for each room of your house.

 

Bathroom Design Wall Options

Your bathroom can easily be transformed into a relaxing escape. Traditionally, tile has been the way to go in bathrooms due to the heat, humidity, and moisture that these spaces create. However, wood and natural stone have grown in popularity and style. These materials provide a rustic look and a warm feel. Shiplap is another popular wall material that is clean and bright. It easily accents the other colors, materials, cabinets, and fixtures in your bathroom. A third option is book matched stone. Book-matched stone is two or more slabs of stone that create a mirror effect. This concept creates a symmetrical, eye-pleasing effect, providing balance and the feel of an open book.

 

Kitchen Design Wall Options

Just like in the bathroom, shiplap is a great, stylish, and functional option in the kitchen. It provides brightness and a warm kitchen atmosphere. At the same time, shiplap can handle all of the kitchen’s activities and needs while remaining rugged and fashionable. It is also a wall type that can complement many styles of décor, finishes, and appliances.

 

Living Room Design Wall Options

Living room walls are becoming more adventurous with wall panels and full panels. This type of carpentry can incorporate a variety of styles, dimensions, materials, shapes, and more. You can genuinely make this common space your own.

 

Bedroom Design Wall Options

For bedroom wall updates, there are many popular options that include moody colors and textures, wood paneling, and waterfall effects. All of these design strategies can be customized to meet and match your style. Herringbone, rich tones, patterns, and more can all be an option when it comes to updating your bedroom walls.
