Accent walls are ubiquitous in a totally universal way. They can be found in homes all over the world, but the actual iteration matters a lot. For example, homes come in the form of open-floor concept designs that visually connect a lot of spaces at once. So how can you design an accent wall that can fully complement this home-style? Well today, we’ll be featuring 5 accent wall ideas you can interpret in an open-floor plan.

The feature length niche horizontally connects two individual zones of an open floor plan. For example, it can start behind the couch in your living room and continue all the way to the dining area. You can clad the inside of the niche in any material you want – stone tiles, wooden laminates and even wallpapers. This kind of an accent wall provides a nice continuity and connection between the spaces in your homes.

A linear continuation means that you can use lines and geometry to design an accent wall that connects the spaces in your open-concept HDB interior design. You can use pipes, paints, aluminum, and even mild steel grills to accomplish such designs. Of course you have to use other elements in such a design articulation as well. these may include paint, decoration pieces and artwork.

Simplicity is one of the best ways you can interpret good designs. If you want an accent wall that is simple as well as impactful, then this idea is for you. You can leave an entire wall as is – no décor, no accessorizing or anything – and let it become the centralized visual of your home. This can be a media wall as well. This simplicity of design and visuals becomes extremely attractive and lends your interior designs a lot of panache.

The broken brick wall aesthetic is another great way to design an accent wall that simultaneously connects a lot of spaces. You can have it designed in a number of colors to match the running theme of the rest of your home. Its broken continuity is the perfect way to visually connect different zones within an open concept HDB.
