Accent Wall in Canton, MA

What this looks like in Canton

Interior work in Canton is shaped by what the buildings are. 1950s–1990s colonials, capes and splits across most of the town, older mill-era housing near the Neponset, and newer development on subdivided land. Owner-occupant families across a broad range of postwar and newer housing.

Our process

One wall done properly changes the whole room. Colour, panelling or millwork.

A feature wall is mostly about the edge where it stops. Crisp termination at an inside corner, level lines on panelling, and a sheen step between the accent and the surrounding walls so the eye reads it as deliberate.

The mistake we get called to fix

Running an accent colour to an outside corner. It looks like the painter ran out rather than like a design decision.
