Start the new year on a stylish note by introducing a half-painted wall to the home. As a trend that’s expected to

continue its popularity in 2020, half-painted walls are a chance to make a statement with colour without being

overwhelmed by it.

Begin this simple DIY project by choosing a colour with a deep undertone such as Pantone’s Colour of the Year Classic

Blue or sage green and pair it with a light neutral like cream or white for maximum impact. Attention to detail is key

here - prep the walls with primer and use frog tape to create a line on the wall. “On first impression, half-painted walls

generate a modern and striking effect to the room,” Rebecca comments. “Opt for the lines to take up two-thirds of the

wall to create a colourful juxtaposition between the backdrop and the centrepiece of the room, whether that’s the

sofa or bed.”

2. Panelled walls with wooden plant shelf

Inject warmth and texture to the home office with wooden wall panels

which add personality to the room without being overly dramatic. Take

advantage of these features by installing a wooden plant shelf using

reclaimed wood.

“A wooden plant shelf is a stylish way to display greenery in your home

while adding your own personal touch,” Rebecca says. “For this DIY, it’s

important to measure how far up the walls the shelf will be placed to

ensure that your plants get enough sunlight. In line with the foliage

theme, choose a forest green colour palette as it provides an optimistic

boost amidst the warm wood tones of a writing desk.”

3. Ombre feature wall

Introducing an ombre feature wall adds an artistic watercolour effect in

the bedroom. Offering a subtle option to bold colour-blocked walls, the

ombre effect comes to life by blending blue and green together to create

teal - a deep jewel tone that establishes a cosy space meant for

relaxation.

“The ombre look has continued to mesmerise the design world with its

ability to transform any space,” Rebecca says. “When planning, determine

the direction of your colour flow such as from light at the bottom to dark

at the top, or vice versa. A teal ombre feature wall creates a laid back,

tropical look in the bedroom so make sure that the wall next to it

complements these qualities. Choose emerald for its calming qualities,

blending in with the soft textured fabrics and dark wooden tones.”

4. Staghorn Fern display wall

Decorating with indoor plants on the walls is a creative way to display greenery at home while giving the space a

unique twist. With that in mind, opt for a staghorn fern display wall in the living room or kitchen for a raw, natural

feel.

With the help of Zosia Berkieta-Lewis from The Plant Room, this 10-step DIY project requires a lot of preparation so it’s

best to get the tools ready before starting, such as a hammer, nails and wooden boards. “Adapt the staghorn fern

display wall to fit the size of your walls by selecting how many boards you want to put up,” Rebecca advises. “With

everything in place, the warm wood tones of the boards create a natural focal point in the living room or kitchen while

the plants purify the air.”
