However, they work for small rooms too.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>How <\/strong><strong>to design an accent wall<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>Many people don\u2019t find it too hard to design an accent wall. But it is always good to know what to <em>avoid<\/em>\u2026and what makes one <em>better<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few tips to get you started on designing the best accent wall ever!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Accent walls present the perfect opportunities for applying your creative genius. What you can\u2019t do with the rest of the room, you probably <em>can<\/em> apply it to this one wall. So don\u2019t be afraid to experiment. It\u2019s all good.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>You may worry about an accent wall disrupting the atmosphere of a neutrally designed room. But the right colour and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/5-ways-to-add-texture-to-your-interiors.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">textural choices<\/a> won\u2019t create this problem. If your room\u2019s theme is neutral, you don\u2019t have to select bright accent hues. Instead, choose something that complements the neutral palette, but is dramatic as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Working with an accent wall in an all-white room is not easy. You need to be careful about how you use your chosen accent colour. A bright hue against white walls looks contemporary. But it can also become overwhelming, and therefore, unappealing. We recommend that you use softened accent colours in all-white spaces.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49266\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/accent_ceiling.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/accent_ceiling.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/accent_ceiling-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/accent_ceiling-537x313.jpg 537w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You don\u2019t <em>have<\/em> to choose a wall to be your room\u2019s accent. You can use your ceiling to fulfil the same function, which then becomes your accent ceiling. Apart from the colour, a stylish crown moulding job also differentiates a ceiling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>A wall with windows also makes for a good accent feature. But you need to be careful with your colour choices here. You might end up with a bright light effect if you select dark accent colours. Meanwhile, creating an accent window wall is smart for a room that lacks any other architectural focal point.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1><strong>Ideas for creative accent walls<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>When it comes to designing a great accent wall, you can explore a variety of creative ideas. The colour wheel, in itself, will be your playground.<\/p>\n<p>Try to go with the hue you love; as long as it fits with the room\u2019s settings. Also, you can texturize the paint, or apply materials like wallpapers, wood, and reflective glass for added effect.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some cool accent wall ideas to try for your home:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Wallpapers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49273\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/wallpaper.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/wallpaper.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/wallpaper-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/wallpaper-537x313.jpg 537w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Not in a mood to paint something creative?

As such, they present the easiest method for building an accent wall in <em>any<\/em> room.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Geometric<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49269\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/geometric_accent.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/geometric_accent.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/geometric_accent-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/geometric_accent-537x313.jpg 537w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Geometric designs give off a contemporary appearance.

Instead of the conventional choices of brick or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/the-versatility-of-wood-for-interior-designing.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">wood<\/a>, try stone. We recommend using stone materials in their natural aesthetic.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Murals<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49271\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/mural.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/mural.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/mural-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/mural-537x313.jpg 537w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Wall murals offer several quirky ways of adding accent to a room.
