Originating in the 17th century when aristocrats ordered lavish silk wall coverings to add a worldly, exotic touch to their mansions, feature or accent walls have evolved from being ornamental to holding the power to change the energy of a room. Offering depth, elevation and character, this trend was popularised by great Modernist architects like Le Corbusier and Ricardo Legorreta, who used colour and patterns to emphasise architectural or structural details.
Feature walls enhance a room through texture, colour and contrast, while also dividing the space and adding appeal and excitement. In essence, it's like standing out from the crowd: if done well, it will change the look and feel of a room to stunning effect.
