I am going crazy with the TV wall.. would like the Japanese panel out , not sure what to replace with ! Husband wont think of wall papers , he hates wall parts with a passion ! I am really struggling with ideas . Thank you x
I would agree that a wood slat wall would look good as long as it works with the floor. I initially thought about a stone clad wall but you might have too much stone in the room then, a wooden slat wall would soften the space slightly.
My first thought was to paint the wall in a dark grey. The tv would disappear and the art would pop. Love bringing texture in so maybe a slatted wall painted in a dark blue grey?
I hated wallpaper with a passion too…then thanks to having the first Covid lockdown putting a full stop to my kitchen renovation before the walls were re plastered and tiling done, found myself trying out removable wallpaper to hide the mess. I even used it behind my hob. It is honestly fabulous stuff- I got so many compliments once people could see it and it held up well. You could try it out as a test for “real” wallpaper or whatever other materials you are considering, and your husband could see if he can live with it… or even might like it.
I agree with SV S. Painting the wall a dark colour, grey, navy, green etc, would look amazing. It’s easy to do, relatively cheap and if you later find it’s not enough, then you could consider another finish at a later date. The examples below don’t match your style but I think they show how good a dark paint can look.
We agree that you need to disguise the amount of boxy shapes that appear on this wall. Painting the wall dark or having wooden slats would help to unify the wall. The only other thing we would say is if you do remove the Japanese panel we would replace it with something else as it feels as though something needs to be above the fireplace to help balance out the TV.
We hope that helps. If you would like some personalised help you may find out Power Hour useful. You can see more about it here. - Becky
