## Board and batten Board-and-batten wall panelling features wide vertical boards separated by narrower wooden strips, called battens. These battens serve both a functional and aesthetic purpose: they hide the seams between the boards while adding a rhythmic visual element to the wall. Unlike other pre-made panel options, board-and-batten is usually a custom installation, which gives you more control over the design. The spacing and width of both boards and battens can be adjusted to suit your desired look, from subtle accents to striking geometric grids. This style works particularly well in entryways, on staircases, or as a statement wall. ![](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56e579b545bf2119aa58e055/89425634-6663-41f5-8e4d-717e4b92cfcc/YX5q%25axlRW6U5GmBDqjVZw_thumb_868c.jpg) _Board and batten wall panelling in a kid’s bedroom._ ### Raised panels If you’re looking for a formal, classic period look, raised panelling is a sophisticated choice. These panels are made up of bevelled or recessed rectangular sections framed by rails and trim. The dimensional design creates deep shadows and adds a layer of architectural detail that works beautifully in offices, libraries, or dining rooms. Although the centre panels are often crafted from medium-density fiberboard (MDF), their bevelled edges and painted finishes make them virtually indistinguishable from solid wood. Raised panel kits are available for easier installation, or you can work with a professional for custom layouts that fit your space perfectly. ![](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56e579b545bf2119aa58e055/a5e1bbf3-e6dd-4fd9-8fb4-3c9448c93c13/RK%2B57yP7Qf2GpL3DDsNuWA_thumb_b891.jpg) ---
