Adding color, light, or texture to basement walls is one way to achieve a warm, inviting look - and it’s a lot easier than you might think.
Nothing beats classic wainscoting for giving a room instant personality. For a traditional or farmhouse look, choose the Beadboard option in white. For a more contemporary feel, try Painted White Planks. Both options can be painted to suit your room's décor and create cozy charm in basement spaces.
Pro Tip: Go beyond wainscoting and take the wall panels all the way to the ceiling to extend the look or carve out a space on your wall as an accent.
The brilliant sparkle of a metal accent wall creates a dramatic focal point in an elegant basement design. Pressed metal basement wall panels come in luxurious finishes, including the warmth of copper and brass along with the sleek sophistication of lacquered steel.
Have a wet bar in the basement? Consider installing a metal panel backsplash to bring visual flair to the area behind your bar. Armstrong METALLAIRE stainless steel backsplash panels are 18.5" x 48.5" and are perfect for creating a decorative, small scale design.
