Accent walls have always been and I guess will always be there: this is a timeless and pretty easy decor idea that is a real game changer. Brick accent walls are very trendy, modern, cool and they look perfect with any décor style, and it’s up to you what shade and look you’ll give them. Let’s consider some ideas to incorporate a brick accent wall into your interior.
Kitchens And Dining Rooms
A brick accent wall in the kitchen is one of the most popular ideas because it can easily substitute a backsplash. This is a very budget-friendly idea that also adds style to your interior, and it can be DIYed, especially if you are ready for faux brick. Whitewashed bricks are perfect for vintage or shabby chic interiors, and they can also create a contrasting look with black cabinets. Rough red brick will make your kitchen a bit industrial and will give a texture to the decor. Consider covering the brick wall with a special solution to prevent its destruction and a dull look as brick isn’t the most durable thing and in case you want to wash them, you need some special seals before.
