Wooden Panel Walls in 15 Living Room Designs

Walls can be treated in so many different ways. Some leave the concrete unfinished for an industrial look while others add some wall stickers or wall murals to seemingly create a different world while in their own homes. There are others who make use of exposed brick walls while some merely paint their walls in whatever color they desire. But another good way of giving more life to your walls is using wooden panels.

Wooden panels can be in squares or rectangles added to the wall. They can be used in most parts of the wall or can merely be wall accents. In today’s post, we will show you living rooms that made use of wooden panels for their walls. Check on how each one varies in style and how the wooden accents have enhanced the living room.

We are certain that you’d love the dark wood flooring but the wooden wall panels are also great features of this living room.

Wood is indeed one of the materials that are commonly used in home design. It can look good not just for the interior but also for the exterior and even for the furniture, accessories and other elements in the house. That is why, no matter how modern a home is, there would still be some touches of wood to make it appear cozier and warmer. We have also showcased bedrooms with wooden wall panels.
