Wall Panel Ideas

Wall Panel ideas to assist you in designing rooms with the classical symmetry created by adding wall panels.    Beaux-Arts Classic Products wall panels are designed to be easily installed. The corners come with a notch for the moulding to slide into which avoids the necessity of mitering the corner moulding.  They come pre-finished in 14 beautiful finishes.  We offer Wall Panel Layout and Design Services to assist with the design process but we often get involved with conversations about all the many options adding wall panels offer.  So this post is meant to provide lots of inspiration on some of the ways wall panels can be incorporated into the design of your home.

This is one of my favorite wall panel designs.  The wall area outside the panels was faux finished to look like a silk fabric.  Inside the panels was stenciled with a damask.  The background of the damask is a gold metallic that compliments the finish on the Louis XIV architectural wall panels.  This identifies nicely the areas created by adding wall panels.  The wall area outside the panels, the wall area inside the panels and the architectural wall panels themselves.  Because the wall panels are added to the wall you can easily choose a finish which is not the color of the walls.  Many times you will see paneled rooms and the panel moulding is the same color as the wall.  That is because it is very difficult to paint the moulding another color once it is installed on the wall.

You can never go wrong with white wall panels.  These look lovely on the light gray wall.  This picture demonstrates another decision with wall panels; the size of the panel.  In this application they have the panels the full length of the wall.  Wall panels are often used above a chair rail.  Here they are using the height of the panel to organize the towels.  Really great design.

All one color for the panels and ornament is most common.

This very large master bedroom has a nice variety of panel sizes.  The wall panels are a lovely soft beige which makes them stand out from the walls although it is subtle.

Andrew Skurman treats the panels as an architectural feature using the same color for all the details.

Lovely wall color with the wall panels in an aged gold finish.  Notice the combination of narrow panels with wider panels.

Another winning combination; white walls and gold wall panels.

Wall panels are so versatile.  In this dressing room they have combined mirrored panels with damask.  The panels themselves in the gold act as lovely frames.

Bedrooms are really perfect for wall panels.  They are elegant and add to a feeling of serenity with not too much clutter but lots of beauty.  Lovely soft blue for walls and panels.

Very large monochromatic panels work great to add additional artwork.

Wall Panels are great for organizing collections.  Here are lovely examples of how beautifully classical wall panels organize groups.

Here the framed pictures extend beyond the wall panels.  Still like the organization it gives the wall.

Love this butterfly collection within a wall panel.

Vintage Plate Collection is another great idea for a wall panel.
