Feature walls are a fantastic way to add character, style, and texture to your walls. For starters, interior wall panels offer a fast and affordable alternative to tiles when it comes to transforming tired walls. As LL Company explains, “aside from its unrivalled aesthetic appeal, one of the many benefits of wall panelling is its practical purpose of concealing unattractive and uneven surfaces.” This technique is also great for bringing life to the space and adding your personal touch.

Personally, I love the idea of adding a feature wall to any home office space. For those of you – like myself – that work from home, you spend hours on end in this space. Currently, my office is undesigned and plain, I often find myself looking at different designs to transform the space into something I’d enjoy spending most of my day in. The most prominent design piece I keep coming across is a feature wall, and next week I just might tackle this DIY project to begin seeing my home office in a new light!
