Feature walls in Christchurch, made to be noticed
One wall that changes the whole room. Venetian plaster, stone effect, metallic, paint effects or wallpaper, designed around your space and applied by hand.
Move across the wall to light it
The quickest way to give a room character
A feature wall draws the eye, sets the mood and gives a room a focal point. It works behind a bed, around a fireplace, in an entrance or across a living room wall.
Because it's a single wall, you can choose a finish with real presence, such as a handmade plaster or a bold paper, without committing the whole room to it.
We help you choose the wall, the finish and the colour, then make a sample so you can see it in your own light before we start.

Feature wall questions
Which wall should be the feature wall?
Usually the wall your eye goes to first when you walk in, such as behind the bed, around the fireplace or the end wall of a living room. We'll suggest the best one at the consultation.
What's the best finish for a feature wall?
It depends on the look you want. Venetian plaster gives depth and sheen, Travertino looks like natural stone, Ottocento adds a velvety metallic glow, and wallpaper gives pattern. We make samples so you can compare.
Can a feature wall go around a fireplace?
Yes. Fireplaces are one of the most popular places for a decorative plaster finish. We'll check the surround and recommend a suitable finish.
Can you do a feature wall in a bathroom?
Bathroom walls away from direct water can work well. For showers and other areas with constant water, we'll recommend a more suitable option.
How much does a feature wall cost?
It depends on the size of the wall, the finish and the condition of the surface. We price each feature wall after a consultation.
Do you do feature walls outside Christchurch?
Yes. We cover all of Canterbury, and travel to Auckland, Queenstown and Wānaka for decorative plaster feature walls.
