Using wall panels to elevate your space
Wall panels are an easy way to elevate your space and take it to that next textural level. There are some great companies offering off-the-shelf panels which are easy to apply at home. With our project, Holiday House, we used ‘Surround’ by Laminex to create interesting walls in some of the bedrooms. The brief for this project was that this is a holiday home for a young family, we needed to ensure that the project remained fun, youthful and by no means ‘fuddy-duddy’. We used the panelling in colour to ensure we met that brief.
For this guest bedroom (image below) we used the Surround by Laminex in their Demi-Round profile in a soft pink to bring some softness and warmth to this lower level, south-facing room. We created a niche shelf complete with LED strip light and created a recessed capping to ensure we kept the scalloped detail.
Is the guest bedroom below, we used the panels to create a headboard. We used the whole width of the wall to make the wall feel wider and created a shelf on top of the panel for more landing space. We painted the panel a dark, inky navy blue which we pulled from the artwork.
With love, Jacqui, Toni, Alexandra & Lucy
Testimonial - Client Story
The scale of decision making on a new build is a daunting task and especially for someone like me who is time poor and has no idea when it comes to interior design. So, it was an absolute godsend to have Jacqui & Alex on my team. They cut out hours of decision making and searching in shops. Simply presenting me with a few options, which I often had Alex make the final decision on anyway.
Alex's communication is excellent, and it was exciting to know how far away my new pieces were. She was always available to answer my questions and especially when it came down to the implementation of her design. Alex and Jacqui are extremely professional and helped transform our new house into a personal and aesthetically pleasing home for our family.
