Transform your room with Wood Paneling

Is your basement in need of updating? Are you questioning the route to go in your remodeling project? Design the Space has several wood paneling ideas that will transform your basement, and allow you to enjoy the extra space.

Define a basement room with plywood paneling walls and interesting artwork. Choose squared plywood wood paneling from Design the Space. Cover the walls with shaped veneer panels overlaid with molding and raised wood blocks to create the wainscoting. Above the chair rail, add a mural depicting a whimsical scene of dogs playing billiards. Design the Space would love to create this look for you!

By covering the walls in warm tongue-and-groove wood paneling, and a wood and stone fireplace it gives this basement a rustic log-cabin feel.  Before a treatment like this can be installed over masonry basement walls, you need to make sure the walls are plumb and dry. If your basement walls are bowed or out of plumb, you'll need to build a stud wall in front of the masonry wall to ensure a flat, plumb finished surface. 

Basements are often one large, open room. Add definition and interest with simply framed walls. Because partition walls don't have to support the weight of the house, you can build them anywhere in the basement to create separate rooms. Build a partial wall to divide the sitting area from the dining room. Wood paneling laid horizontally in a randomly staggered manner creates a dynamic look for your basement area.

Wood paneling is the perfect way to rejuvenate your basement and create a fun, inviting space for your guests.   Allow us to work with you to create the perfect wood paneling to suite your unique needs.  Contact us today to get started!
