It’s no secret that texture brings a lot to a space, and with a stone accent wall, you can make sure your room has every opportunity to reach its fullest potential. Stone accent walls can be anything from an entire wall to more subtle accents that offer an appealing emphasis. If your home doesn’t already have this striking feature, you can still achieve a similar look with brick-style wallpaper.
If you aren’t ready to commit to a full stone wall, you may want to start with a stone fireplace or even an adjoining wall with less space to cover. This feature tends to produce a more rustic appearance, which can be offset with modern accessories if rustic is not your style. The beauty that stone adds to a space is almost impossible to replicate since the irregular shapes and varying tones are wonderful for creating warmth and coziness.
Look through our images below and gather ideas for your stone accent wall.
