Whether you’d like to define a living space or spotlight a treasured piece of artwork or architectural feature, an accent wall can create a striking, unique design element. Accent walls can also help you create color flow. By using the same color in fabrics, finishes, accessories, and furnishings in adjoining rooms, you can create a seamless transition from space to space. A showcase accent wall is a wall specifically designed to highlight a cool piece of decor in your room. The color should complement your piece and draw attention to it.
