Architectural detail on the wall adds an additional layer of definition to any space, I’ve always been a fan. The white shiplaped wall has taken over the world in the past few years, it seems every home tour has it somewhere. I’m a fan of planked walls, I too have done my own DIY white shiplap installation below a wallpaper treatment in my powder bathroom.
When I see a shiplap wall, I like the clean white look and the subtle stripe effect that comes from the stacked raised paneling. It provides a pleasing backdrop for layering furniture, art, and decor.
But for those of you who feel the shiplap look is becoming as ubiquitous as subway tile, today I offer a few alternatives to consider.
White Wainscot
Architectural details on a wall go by different names depending on the look: planking, board and batten, picture frame molding, beadboard, tongue and groove, and millwork. Custom or prefabricated work is always an option but basic designs are easy to DIY. If you’re a fan of white walls but seek something other than shiplap, consider the following looks:
Painted Geometric Paneling
The geometric grid installation is growing in popularity for good reason with classic square or rectangle shapes created with strips of wood. It looks especially good when painted in tone on tone colors.
Wood Paneling
Reclaimed, weathered, whitewashed, stained or natural, there are limitless opportunities to add texture with wood tones.

Modern Installations
Think outside the box by using lattice strips or dimensional wall paneling to create one of a kind designs.
