Love this. I showed my contractor and he did a 'sample' wall to see if I liked it -- I did and we did the entire house in this pattern! So elegant, love it. The painter will be done by Fri of this week. Thank you for a great video!
Would love to see pictures of your walls. This seems to usually just be an accent wall design but I wonder if it wouldn’t be too overwhelming if all wall were done the same
I love it how we went from regal elaborate millwork to minimalist and then back again to regal. People, Scandi and Boho is okay, but classic is timeless for a reason.
The wall looks great, I love the molding and the color. What I would have done differently was to have the "chair rail" height at 30 inches not 36. I think those proportions would have looked better and the upper panel being larger would have made the ceiling seem even higher.
Beautiful job! I would love to fill in the center panels with decorative wallpaper. A simple, geometric art deco motif would complement the dark paint color and make it look really luxurious. I also wanted to comment that I appreciate how nicely you take care of that beard of yours. It's hard to keep a bushy beard from becoming unruly and you do a great job of it.
I love it! I had drywall finishing. I recently finished my media room in the basement. After I hung the drywall- I filled and sanded the holes and covered the seams with MDF trim in a similar fashion. Looks nice, finished fast and the middle batten also serves to protect the wall from teenagers in chairs.
The feature wall is stunning. Especially in that blue-grey paint. As a seasoned cabinet maker and remodeler, the only thing I would do differently is provide for consistent reveals beneath the crown molding and above the baseboard, matching the mid-wall divider. The choice of 1"x6" sticks for the horizontal elements vs. 1"x8" material for the verticals is subjective, depending upon your own aesthetic. I personally like it for situations like this where it would appear to be too much under the crown molding and above the baseboard. Lastly, for paint applications like this, use MDF. It saves you a ton of time, yields a highly accurate result and remains dimensionally stable. Best of all, it's available in 10' lengths. Sketching everything out ahead of time, you could maximize sheet yield, saving money in the process.
@@flyingwhiteindian I'd use 1/8" HDF (high density fiberboard) for the panels, and 3/4" MDF for the stiles, rails, baseboards, etc. The choice of 1/8" HDF/hardboard is for weight and cost considerations. Hope that helps.
So it looks like the feature wall goes in before baseboards and crown molding? And when you say reveal, you are saying that with the baseboards and crown molding in, now the bottom rail is about half the width of the top rail? And that those should both be the same?
@@dohlemacher These are all choices based on one's personal aesthetic. My preference is to have consistent borders, forming the grid, as well as above the baseboard and below the crown molding.
beautiful! may I suggest a consideration for future replications? use an 8" along the bottom as your bottom rail, and ensure 6" is visible above the base molding. everybody starts from the floor for the bottom rail and it makes the bottom rail look wierd because it doesn't match the width of the other rails. using 8" gives you 2" to nail the base molding to, and 6" to match your other stiles. the same goes for crown molding. use 8" for your top rail and leave 6" exposed and use the remaining 2" to nail your crown molding to. This feature you designed and made is gorgeous!
You may want to use a domino or spline of some kind where your 4/4 boards connect. With weather changes even with the joint glued you can still get seam creep as the wood filler will not move with poplar. We do this for a living and most of the time we glue up section then apply them to the wall and this means you have less seams to deal with in the field.
Outstanding...I'm in the middle of wainscotting a wall in my home and this is definitely on the agenda for my next wall. The paint colour is courageous and looks great.
I agree with you and other commenters. However, their work is the same as all of these contractors and workers building these homes in the 500k+ market. Ive been so disappointed by the lack of care, detail and craftsmanship in these homes especially for the money. I've seen the caulk in holes thing too many times. So he would be hired on the spot by these companies, lol. He did good enough.
This exactly the design I am making in 1 week. I looked all over the place to find exactly what I had in mind and now I found your channel. I could not explain to my wife what I want to do in the basement and now I can show her your video. So it is called Double raised ok LOL
I feel like some contrasted painting would've been a nice touch to this Could leave that interior molding white, or honestly all of the trim white, leaving the interior spaces black, or vice versa.
I don't know what the cost comparison is between MDF and the timber you used but here in Australia 18mm primed MDF would be a considerably cheaper option (about 50%).
Love this book! ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!
Have a wall 10 feet long with a door at one side . A pot belly stove in the middle and a blank wall other side. Thinking to make a panel hinged to hide the door and actually look like the wall Do the same on blank wall hinged with secret shelves in the drywall. Thanks for giving a great idea. Cheers.
Love the feature wall, so thank you for sharing. For what I would have done differently, maybe I'd have enhanced the depth of the voids by adding a quarter inch mdf board insert in the 6 rectangles with a deeper trim around each. Great look and finish color.
Nice work done, hope you are happy with the results, it sure looks good. However, looking at the rest of your channel, which is about a bunch of different "hacks in life", for these type of videos, I think most people would appreciate things like choice of material, when you are talking about "boards" and similar.
Looks great. I would consider a larger panel moulding profile for the center section, due to the grand scale of your panels. Not a criticism, just a preference. What Brand / color black did you select? I think it is a great choice!
Love this concept, we did similar, only did a cream paint scheme so that our Walnut entertainment center would be the ture feature. As I said, love the concept!
Love this wall! I want to use your design, however, I have a sloped ceiling ...what would you suggest? I though about starting at 12 feet to meeting the ceiling at it's lowest point, but would that look bad not doing the upper portion.
I would use blackboard paint in the large empty centers then during different seasons I could put appropriate words of encouragement or other. Just a thought that happened in my head during the watching. lol. Thanks for sharing how you did this, might use it in a future redo.
Hopefully the glue will hold up at the seams once expansion and contraction kicks in. I would have built the frames in one piece, in place, pocket holed/glued all of the seams, sanded, compound, then install the one piece. Did come out nice though...
So glad I found your channel! We moved into a new home, trying to figure out a feature wall... I think this might be it! You have a new subscriber, cheers mate!
Looks fantastic. In future would be interesting to find out what paint you use and what you think of spraying vs brush and roll. I use Benjamin Moore Advance for a lot of these types of finishes and find the finish to be unlike any other. Looked like a Behr product in this video...but I guess you're more focused on the carpentry side of things.
Looks great,though fyi,it's not even a single raised panel,muh less double. Center section of each style and rail square has to have a center panel(1/2" to 3/4") that has some type of cove style shape to its outside hugging the inside of the square or mortise into sides of styles/rails. This is a recessed panel style with decor trim inside styles/rails and a decor trim picture frame accent square inside that. JUST SO YA KNOW!
Hi! My husband and I are duplicating your accent wall now. But our dilemma is the wall outlet. We are first time DIYers. What do you recommend for electrical wall outlet face plates? All ideas are welcomed.
I thank you for your video sir, as I was searching for a video on how to build a double raised panel. I hope to do the same for my residence in the future.

Beautiful. Now I know what I would love to do with my huge living room wall
Outstanding...I'm in the middle of wainscotting a wall in my home and this is definitely on the agenda for my next wall. The paint colour is courageous and looks great.
Desperate times 🤣
It was not bad. But you could still see seams. For a smoother look use joint compound then go over with car Bondo. It won't sink over time
I with you Brady. I could see a seam as you were there talking. Maybe pocket hole those joints to tighten them up and use the joint compound.
Ensure that seams are on studs, as well.
Yep! I wouldn't be happy with this at all.
@Kane King that's why professionals don't use caulk to fill nail holes...It's just common sense
I agree with you and other commenters. However, their work is the same as all of these contractors and workers building these homes in the 500k+ market. Ive been so disappointed by the lack of care, detail and craftsmanship in these homes especially for the money. I've seen the caulk in holes thing too many times. So he would be hired on the spot by these companies, lol. He did good enough.
There are paintable electrical cover plates available at HD and likely online. Great for those colored walls.
Yes, we did that for another wall and it turned out great!
Looks great. On a three panel wall, historically, the center panel is slightly wider then the two flanking panels.
its gorugeous what color did you use?
This exactly the design I am making in 1 week. I looked all over the place to find exactly what I had in mind and now I found your channel. I could not explain to my wife what I want to do in the basement and now I can show her your video. So it is called Double raised ok LOL
Awesome! Yeah we totally made that name up, haha, but I thought it sounded good.
@@rogueengineer hahaha ok
Fantastic result guys. Brilliant!
The house turned out great guys. Congrats on getting in.
Thanks Gary! It’s been a long road and you’ve seen just about the whole thing! Thanks for tagging along
that has a very luxury look. this has to be best feature wall I have seen in a while
Wow talk about beautiful. What a statement it has made to the room.
Thanks Harry! We love how it turned out!
We are ready to give this a try in our Foyer. Super excited but also freaked.
I feel like some contrasted painting would've been a nice touch to this Could leave that interior molding white, or honestly all of the trim white, leaving the interior spaces black, or vice versa.
Looks beautiful! I wouldn't change a thing!
Thanks!
Love this wall! Question??? If my existing wall has a knockdown texture do I have to sand it smooth? Thanks!
I don't know what the cost comparison is between MDF and the timber you used but here in Australia 18mm primed MDF would be a considerably cheaper option (about 50%).
Did this 6 months ago on a 2 story stairwell wall. It's surprisingly easy to do.
I bet that is awesome! I would love to see a 2 story example of this.
Love this book! ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind!

Amazing design and execution! I can’t wait to do this to our dining room and bedrooms!
Great Wall and instructions are easy to follow along. Plus awesome color choice!
Just came across this video....man nice job and thanks for explaining everything used. Very nice craftsmanship!
Thank you!
Great idea. The panels connect the
wall with the rest of the room.
That wall is gorgeous!!
Have a wall 10 feet long with a door at one side . A pot belly stove in the middle and a blank wall other side. Thinking to make a panel hinged to hide the door and actually look like the wall
Do the same on blank wall hinged with secret shelves in the drywall. Thanks for giving a great idea. Cheers.
No problem! Good luck!

Shapes that room really well! Have you noticed any movement at the joints causing gaps? Thank you
FiscalWoofer thanks! Haven’t noticed any movement yet. It’s been up for about a year now.
Looks great.
I would consider a larger panel moulding profile for the center section, due to the grand scale of your panels.
Not a criticism, just a preference.
What Brand / color black did you select?
I think it is a great choice!
Thanks! And I agree with you but it’s hard to find screen molding much bigger than that. The color is cracked pepper from Behr
Love this concept, we did similar, only did a cream paint scheme so that our Walnut entertainment center would be the ture feature. As I said, love the concept!
Love this wall. I really like the color
Thanks!
Nice work! How long did it take you guys to finish this project?
Love this wall! I want to use your design, however, I have a sloped ceiling ...what would you suggest? I though about starting at 12 feet to meeting the ceiling at it's lowest point, but would that look bad not doing the upper portion.
What color is the paint? It's gorgeous. What an amazing job you all did. I appreciate you sharing this
Great job, saving for my flexroom addition! Just discovered this channel and will binge this week. 😀
Is there going to be a skirting board added? How will that work out and be done? Or is the gap at the bottom the room left to install a floor?
What is the name of the paint colour that the wall is lastly painted in.... Thanks and great design
Which wood products would you choose if you were going to stain the wall as opposed to painting it?
So detailed and easy to follow, thank you guys, great work with the wall and the video!
Thank you!!
This is beautiful. I love your design.
Great job!
Please share wood used and dimensions that would be helpful
Simply beautiful. What paint color is this?
Brave colour choice, looks great!
Thanks!
What was the thickness of the boards? And what sort.of trim did you use? Thanks
looks insanely good, y'all
Looks Great guys... Looking forward to what to come!!
Thanks Jason!!
I did this but moved the outlets to the bottom board verses the walls. LooKs way better and more professional.
Nice jobe. What's the brand and name of the color
That looks awesome! The color is a little too dark for my taste but still very cool.
Thanks Benny
That looks sick !
Thanks Dan!
WOW! That is absolutely brilliant and classy on all levels :) Kudos to you and your team.
Looks like something you will find in a magazine detailing a million dollar 🏠
Beautiful wall. what glue did you use to join the boards???
How would I add a crown molding to this? Or do this to a wall with crown molding? Looks great
Great video..... what was the make and color of the paint??
Amazing!!!!! What is the shade of the grey? Can I have the name please. Thanks!
Yes, I was wondering same thing.
I would use blackboard paint in the large empty centers then during different seasons I could put appropriate words of encouragement or other. Just a thought that happened in my head during the watching. lol. Thanks for sharing how you did this, might use it in a future redo.
That’s a cool idea! Thanks!
Def not a cool idea. Lol @ “words of encouragement” in the panels. 🤦🏻♂️🤣
Hopefully the glue will hold up at the seams once expansion and contraction kicks in. I would have built the frames in one piece, in place, pocket holed/glued all of the seams, sanded, compound, then install the one piece. Did come out nice though...
Very nice only missing some gold ! Thanks !
This is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Great work man! Love that the wife is getting involved!
this looks really great! What is the colour you used?
What is that gorgeous paint color???
So nice! what color is the paint?
Absolutely gorgeous!!
So glad I found your channel! We moved into a new home, trying to figure out a feature wall... I think this might be it! You have a new subscriber, cheers mate!
Awesome! Thanks for subscribing man 👊🏻
I don't think the detailing (or lack thereof) above the door works, but the main wall looks great.
Looks fantastic. In future would be interesting to find out what paint you use and what you think of spraying vs brush and roll. I use Benjamin Moore Advance for a lot of these types of finishes and find the finish to be unlike any other. Looked like a Behr product in this video...but I guess you're more focused on the carpentry side of things.
Thanks!! And good call, I’m sure there are others that would like more info on that as well.
Wow ,great job guys 👏👏👏
What finish of paint do you use ? It’s gorgeous!
I have vaulted ceilings but love this design. Any suggestions on how to pull this off with vaulted ceilings?
What color are you use for this project ? It’s looks awesome
Do you nail the molding to the studs or to the drywall?
Looks great, blends really well with the windows.
Very nice! What color paint did you use?
What color is that paint? Looks amazing
Can you share links to the products you used? In particular the trim you used on the inside of the bigger squares?
It looks really nice! GREAT JOB!!
Thank you!!
Do you need flat walls to achieve this look in white or can this be also done on orange peel textured walls? Amazing job!
Spectacular work
Looks great,though fyi,it's not even a single raised panel,muh less double. Center section of each style and rail square has to have a center panel(1/2" to 3/4") that has some type of cove style shape to its outside hugging the inside of the square or mortise into sides of styles/rails.

what is that color i love it?

Какая интересная партнёрша)) Я бы не смог доделать стену до конца с ней ;D
Looks great. Did you explain what you affixed the frame pieces to the plaster? Are they just nailed into wall studs?
Thanks! They are nailed to the studs and glued in spots that didn't have studs.
WoW! Only just seen this is in 2020! It's beautiful! 👍
Beautifully done. My sis just bought a house & I think I'll be doing this for her but on a way smaller scale.
Thanks Tiffany!
Thats looks so smick, i love the dark colour!
Looks fantastic.
I thank you for your video sir, as I was searching for a video on how to build a double raised panel. I hope to do the same for my residence in the future.
Thanks!
