Mid-Century Modern wall paneling & wainscoting
Clean lines, warm walnut and teak, slab and slatted fronts, wall-hung storage systems and live-edge craft.
Mid-century built-ins are some of the most practical to make today: slab fronts, continuous grain, finger pulls and floating cabinets in walnut, teak or white oak.
Wall paneling ranges from simple board-and-batten to full-height Georgian rooms, Tudor linenfold and the wood-lined Alpine Stube. It is one of the most effective ways to give a room period character.
