Earthy, nature-inspired interiors are the trend among homeowners these days. And while real materials (like stone and wood) tend to be heavy and hard to maintain, faux materials are always there to give you the same look without the hassle.
WIth its uneven edges, this faux stone feature wall resembles the surface of a rocky cliff – but more than that, it elevates the overall visual texture of the space for extra appeal.
2. Create a faux fireplace with your TV as the centrepiece

Well, guess what – these homes prove that it’s possible to do so here. And aside from being a purely functional appliance, your TV can also contribute to the look, be it by projecting images of the fireplace, or by doubling up as an art feature piece on the wall.

One of the simplest ways to make your TV feature wall really stand out is to use a contrasting colour as a backdrop.
Just take a leaf out of these homes, where the homeowners used a wood-look feature wall that breaks up the monotony of the whitewashed walls behind it, while still fitting seamlessly into the overall white-and-wood theme.

Aside from patterns like florals and stripes, wallpaper can also emulate different textures like concrete and rattan, which are almost impossible to recreate with regular paint – so it’s no surprise that some homeowners use them to create a visually-striking area.
Case in point: this wallpaper-clad TV feature wall, boasting a subtle striped design that blends into the modern theme of the home.
7. Create a funky backdrop with tiles
