Chevron Wall Panels

A feature wall without battens

Chevron gives a bedroom or living room the movement people usually get from slatted battens or wallpaper, but it goes up as a flat board over plaster with nothing to build out and no dust trap between slats. It works behind a bed, a sofa or a TV wall.

Plan the pattern

A V-pattern only reads properly if the boards run the full height and the chevron meets cleanly at each joint. Measure the wall first and decide where the pattern centres, rather than starting in a corner and cutting whatever is left at the other end.

Sizes

250mm and 1000mm widths at 2.4m and 2.6m, in grey, white, stone and blue. Keep the rest of the room plain — chevron on more than one wall competes with itself.
