An accent wall is a strategically designed wall that distinguishes itself from the surrounding walls through color, texture, or material contrast. In interior design, it creates visual interest and focal points within a space. Considerations include balance, scale, and integration with lighting and furnishings. For architects, it’s an opportunity to play with spatial dynamics, surface finishes, and materiality to enhance a room’s character.
