Accent Walls That Transform Your Space

A custom accent wall is one of the simplest ways to make a bold, beautiful impact in any room. Not sure what shiplap, wainscoting, beadboard or board & batten actually means? You’re in the right place.

Timber & Tin can help you compare styles, materials and colors, see real examples, and choose a treatment that fits your home.

Shiplap


Shiplap uses horizontal planks to create clean lines, warmth and texture. It can feel bright and coastal, modern farmhouse, rustic or surprisingly contemporary depending on the material and finish.

Wainscoting


Wainscoting is a broad category for decorative wall treatments that cover the lower portion of a wall. It can be built with beadboard, board & batten, shiplap, framed molding or other materials, giving a room architectural character without overwhelming it.

Beadboard


Beadboard uses narrow vertical panels with distinctive grooves. It brings an easy cottage character to bathrooms, kitchens, entryways, bedrooms and other spaces where a little texture goes a long way.

Board & Batten


Board & batten is one of the most flexible accent-wall styles we build. Change the spacing, height, pattern or paint color and it can move from traditional farmhouse to clean modern geometry.

Raised Panel & Picture-Frame Molding


Applied molding creates framed shapes and architectural depth directly on the wall. The result can be elegant and traditional or bold and contemporary, depending on the proportions and color.

Peel-and-Stick Wallpaper


Wallpaper is a fast way to introduce pattern, color and personality. Peel-and-stick options make it especially useful when you want a dramatic change without committing to a permanent architectural treatment.
