Wood Paneling: the next big trend

Made hugely popular by the new series on Netflix called Dream Home Makeover ( featuring husband and wife duo Syd and Shea McGee’s design studio) - nearly all the episodes feature these accent walls.

Liven up dull hallways by converting it into a utility area, or decorate the back of your bed, or simply use it to create partitions in one big space - by sectionalising it with wood panels.

This rustic and fun alternative can be painted in nearly any colour and can be used on accent walls or ceilings, as a backdrop to study desks, headboards or in the “boot room”. It works really well to bring on masculine energy into a room if painted darker colours .

The best part about this trend is that it does not have to be expensive - do it yourself. Better yet, if the trend starts to fade... paint it a different colour, sand it down, add to it - the options are endless.
