When we think of drywall, we picture flat white panels that make up the walls, ceilings, and other spaces in our home. Drywall doesn’t have to be boring and routine. Drywall design trends are emerging that can perk up the entire look and feel of a space. Imagination is the only requirement.
Creating Curves
Drywall doesn’t have to be all 90-degree angles. With the right tools and techniques, drywall can be shaped into curved or arched walls that add a unique touch to a room. Curved walls can create a stunning focal point.
Textured Drywall
Stencils, stamps and various other textures can transform mundane walls into works of art. Texturing techniques can create intricate patterns, bold designs or subtle accents. Artistic textures include stucco, orange peel, sand swirl, Venetian plaster, and skip trowel finishes.
Storage and Shelving
Recessed shelves, cabinets and storage areas can be built directly into the drywall. These features create clever and discreet drywall storage solutions. Hide valuables behind paintings or mirrors. Built-in shelving can display objects that show off your personality. Add accent lighting for that extra touch.
Wainscoting
Wainscoting, or drywall panels, installed along the bottom of a wall adds depth and texture. There are many available options from the elegance of traditional raised panels to the trendy look of shiplap. Wainscoting will spruce up the look of any room.
Accent Walls
Try creating an accent wall in a room. 3D wall panels made from drywall come in a variety of textures and patterns. A feature wall can transform a living room, bedroom, or home office into an artistic treasure. Ceilings are also a good choice for an accent space.
