Wall cladding is one of the fastest ways to change a room. Panels add texture, colour and light without the time and mess of plaster or tiles. Here are twelve ideas that designers, contractors and retailers are using in modern interiors.
Key points
- Slatted and fluted panels add depth and warmth.
- Marble and stone looks give a premium feel at a lower cost and weight than real stone.
- LED profiles turn a panel wall into a feature.
- Matching floors, walls and trims create a complete look.
12 wall cladding ideas
1. Slatted wood TV walls
Vertical slats behind the TV hide cables and add warmth to living rooms.
2. Fluted panels in reception areas
Fluted textures catch the light and give hotel and office receptions a premium look.
3. Marble-look feature walls
Large marble-look panels bring the look of stone to majlis rooms, lobbies and bathrooms.
4. Carbon slate walls
Dark slate-look panels create a strong, modern backdrop for shops and showrooms.
5. LED light lines
LED profiles between panels or along ceilings add soft, indirect light.
6. Headboard walls in hotel rooms
A panelled wall behind the bed makes hotel rooms feel finished and easy to maintain.
7. Half-height panelling
Panels on the lower part of the wall protect corridors and dining areas from chairs and trolleys.
8. Matching floor and wall tones
Using the same wood tone on floors and walls creates a calm, continuous space.
9. Contrasting black frames
Black trims and corners outline panels for a graphic, modern look.
10. Wet-room panels in bathrooms
SPC and PVC panels replace tiles in bathrooms, with fewer joints and faster installation.
11. Curved and wavy panels
Wavy panel designs soften spaces such as lounges, salons and boutiques.
12. Branded walls in retail
Panels in brand colours with LED lines turn a shop wall into a display.
