Why Choose a Custom Accent Wall?

  • Adds instant character without a full remodel
  • Defines living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, and entries
  • Increases perceived value and design cohesion
  • Built to last with premium materials and proper wall prep

Accent Wall Styles We Build

1) Shiplap & Nickel-Gap

Timeless, clean lines that fit modern farmhouse to coastal looks. Great for living rooms and bedrooms.


2) Board & Batten / Wainscoting

Adds depth and formality, protects walls, and pairs well with bold colors. Ideal for entries, dining rooms, and hallways.


3) Modern Slat Walls (Wood or MDF)

Vertical slats create texture and height. Excellent behind TVs and in home offices.


4) Geometric / Picture-Frame Moulding

A refined, custom pattern that elevates any space—perfect for statement bedrooms.


5) Fireplace Accent Walls

Wraps, mantels, stone or tile inlays, media niches, and integrated storage for a polished focal point.

Our Design-to-Install Process

Step 1: In-Home Measure & Style Plan

We confirm scope, discuss layout, outlets/thermostats, and agree on trim profiles, reveals, and paint/sheen.



Step 2: Materials & Prep

We source dimensionally stable stock, prime/seal as needed, and prep walls for a smooth, durable finish.


Step 3: Precision Build

Tight joinery, scribed edges, laser-level lines, and fasteners placed for invisible fills and paint-ready surfaces.


Step 4: Finish & Clean-Up

We caulk, sand, and paint or stain to spec. We leave your space spotless and walk you through final care.

Materials & Finishes

  • Substrates: MDF, poplar, oak, maple, primed composites
  • Profiles: square edge, eased edge, bead, custom mouldings
  • Finishes: high-quality primer, cabinet-grade enamels, durable lacquers, custom stains
  • Upgrades: integrated LED channels, hidden wiring chases, TV mount blocking

  • How long does a typical accent wall take?

    Most single-wall projects install in a day after materials are ready. Complex layouts or finishing may add time.

  • Can you match my existing trim and paint?

    Yes—bring your color code or a sample. We can also recommend durable, kid-friendly finishes.

  • Will you handle outlets and TV wiring?

    We plan around existing devices, add blocking for mounts, and coordinate safe wire management.

  • Do you work in new builds and remodels?

    Absolutely. We handle both finished and in-progress spaces, coordinating with painters and electricians as needed.

At Urbane Upgrade, we design and install accent walls in Carmel that add texture, contrast, and character to your space—without a full remodel. From bold paint treatments and wallpaper features to wood paneling and stone finishes, we’ll help you choose the right layout and material for your home and budget.


Every accent is planned to blend with the room while standing out in the right way. Want to break up a long hallway, highlight a living room wall, or make your bedroom feel more dramatic? We prep the surface correctly, apply materials with precision, and deliver a clean, durable finish that feels intentional—not tacked on.


We’ve completed projects across Carmel—West Clay, Home Place, the Arts & Design District—and know which textures, colors, and finishes hold up best in busy homes. Your project is measured, mocked up, and installed with minimal disruption.
