Accent Walls & Feature Walls in Coral Gables Homes
Board-and-batten and shiplap accent walls have to sit comfortably next to the crown molding, baseboards, and plaster texture already in an older Coral Gables home — a modern farmhouse-style wall can look out of place next to 1920s Mediterranean Revival trim if the profile doesn't match.

Why Coral Gables Is Different
We look at the existing molding profile and wall texture before recommending a style, and for homes in the historic district we lean toward finishes — like a painted panel wall or a subtle texture — that complement the original architecture rather than fight it.

“They suggested a simpler panel profile that actually matched our original molding instead of the more modern look I originally asked for — glad I listened, it fits the house perfectly.”

Accent Walls in Coral Gables — FAQs
Will board-and-batten look right in an older Mediterranean-style home?
It can, if the panel proportions and trim profile are chosen to complement the room's existing molding — we'll advise if a different style would sit better with your home's architecture.
Can you match new trim to our original 1920s-40s molding?
We do our best to match profile and reveal, though exact vintage millwork profiles sometimes require a custom router pass — we'll let you know upfront if that's the case for your home.
Do you work around original plaster walls when installing paneling?
Yes — we account for plaster's different anchoring behavior compared to drywall when securing panels or battens, same care we use for TV mounts in older Gables homes.
