Accent Wall in Scituate, MA

What this looks like in Scituate

Interior work in Scituate is shaped by what the buildings are. Shingle-style and cottage-form houses along the shore, antique colonials inland, and postwar and newer homes through the middle of town. Coastal homeowners who have learned the hard way that exterior maintenance here is a shorter cycle.

How we do it

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.
