The Timeless Look of an Accent Wall
Are Accent Walls in Style in 2025?
The spotlight is still on statement walls
Accent walls have come a long way from being just a quick pop of color. In 2025, they are still a strong interior design trend—just more considered, elevated, and expressive.
Today’s modern accent walls are about storytelling. Rather than feeling like an afterthought, they are used to anchor a space, create visual interest, or introduce a mood.
Here are a few ways the trend is showing up now:
Large-scale wall murals
Murals are leading the way in accent wall design. Whether abstract, natural, or architectural, a mural brings impact and intention to one wall—setting the tone for the entire space. Wallism’s custom-scaled murals make this easy to execute with precision.
Textured wallpaper and soft tonal patterns
For a more subtle take, texture is being used to create quiet drama. A matte finish or lightly raised surface can give depth to a space without dominating it. These accent walls pair well with minimal furnishings and neutral color palettes.
Color-blocked or theme-based contrasts
In 2025, accent walls are often designed to contrast not just in color, but in theme. A serene bedroom might feature a mural of abstract skies behind the bed, while a bold hallway might use sharp lines or high-contrast patterns to create movement and energy.
Whether you are using wallpaper to define a dining nook, highlight a fireplace, or create a focal point behind the sofa, accent walls are still a smart and stylish tool. And because Wallism’s designs are made to order and scaled to fit , your feature wall can feel completely custom.
Summary
Yes, accent walls are very much in style in 2025—but they have evolved. Today’s feature walls are more intentional, using large-scale murals, refined textures, or bold color blocking to add personality and focus to a room. Wallism offers made-to-order designs that make modern accent walls feel curated, not cliché.
