A feature wall is the one surface people remember in a room. Zavoré designs and makes bespoke feature walls in every material we work with, from polished Venetian plaster and liquid metal to sculpted bas relief, sculptural plaster, hand painted murals and mosaic, all under one roof.

Choose your feature wall

Venetian plaster

Polished plaster and marmorino in real Italian lime, tinted to any colour, with the depth of stone.

Liquid metal

Real brass, bronze, copper or iron, burnished to a shine or left to patina.

Limewash

Soft, cloudy, breathable colour that moves with the light.

Bas relief

A scene or pattern sculpted into the wall by hand, white, painted or lit from within.

Sculptural plaster

Fluted, wave, geometric and stone designs, ready made or bespoke, finished seamlessly.

Hand painted murals

Chinoiserie on gold leaf, florals, landscapes and scenes painted on site.

Mosaics

Mosaic designed and installed for walls, floors, splashbacks and pools.

Cornice and mouldings

Panel mouldings, cornice and corbels for a classical panelled wall.

Artificial rock

Sculpted stone and rock faces for feature walls, bars and receptions.

Gilding

Gold, silver and copper leaf on walls, ceilings, mouldings, mirrors and signs.

Lacquered walls

High gloss lacquer, built up coat by coat and polished to a mirror finish.

The history of Venetian plaster

From Rome to Venice, and how it is still made by hand.

Feature wall ideas by room

Living rooms. A polished plaster or liquid metal wall behind the sofa, or a fluted sculptural plaster wall behind the television. Bedrooms. A sculpted bas relief or hand painted chinoiserie behind the bed in place of a headboard. Hallways and stairs. Panel mouldings with limewash, or a mural that runs up the stairwell. Bathrooms. Tadelakt, microcement or mosaic, finishes that are made for water. Restaurants, bars, hotels and receptions. Lit bas relief, branded sculptural plaster, metallic walls and murals that give a space its own identity.

One team, every finish

Most feature walls need more than one trade. A panelled wall needs mouldings and a finish, a sculpted wall needs sculpting and colour, a hotel lobby might need all of it. We design and install every part ourselves, so the cornice, the relief and the plaster are planned together and finished to the same standard.

How a feature wall commission works

  1. The brief. Send us a photo of the wall, its size and the feeling you want the room to have.
  2. The design. We suggest the finishes that suit the space and draw or sample the idea before anything starts.
  3. Samples. You see the colours and textures on real boards in the room itself.
  4. Making and installing. Our own team prepares the wall and builds the feature from start to finish.

Questions

How much does a bespoke feature wall cost?

It depends on the size of the wall and the finish, from limewash at one end to sculpted and lit bas relief at the other. Send us a photo and the measurements and we will suggest options at different budgets.

Which feature wall finish is best for my room?

It depends on the light, how the room is used and the look you want. Tell us about the space and we will recommend two or three finishes and send samples.

Can you combine finishes on one wall?

Yes. Panel mouldings with Venetian plaster, a mural framed by cornice, or a bas relief rising out of a polished plaster wall are all common combinations.

Do you do commercial feature walls?

Yes. Restaurants, bars, hotels, offices, shops and receptions, including logos and branding worked into the design.

Questions & Answers

More questions, answered

What is a feature wall?
A feature wall is the one surface people remember in a room. It is treated differently from the walls around it, in a finish such as polished plaster, liquid metal, bas relief, a mural or mosaic. We design and make bespoke feature walls in every material we work with.
What finishes can a feature wall have?
A feature wall can be polished Venetian plaster, marmorino, liquid metal, limewash, bas relief, sculptural plaster, a hand painted mural, mosaic, mouldings, artificial rock, gilding or lacquer. Browse them all on our feature walls page or ask us to suggest two or three for your room.
What feature wall suits a living room?
A polished plaster or liquid metal wall behind the sofa, or a fluted sculptural plaster wall behind the television, both work well. Tell us about the light and the room and we will recommend a finish and send samples.
What feature wall suits a bedroom?
A sculpted bas relief or hand painted chinoiserie behind the bed, in place of a headboard, is a lovely choice. Soft side light shows a relief at its best. We design the piece to the scale of your wall.
What feature wall suits a bathroom?
Tadelakt, microcement or mosaic suit a bathroom because they are finishes made for water. Venetian plaster is not recommended inside showers. See tadelakt and mosaics, and we will advise on preparation and waterproofing.
What feature wall suits a hallway or stairs?
Panel mouldings with limewash, or a mural that runs up the stairwell, work well in hallways and stairs. Where the wall takes wear, a mural can be sealed so it wipes clean. See our cornice and mouldings.
Can a feature wall include lighting?
Yes. Lighting can be built into a bas relief, with LED strips hidden behind arches, ledges and branches, and sculptural plaster can have recesses designed in for LED lighting. Electrical connections are made by a qualified electrician.
Do you design and install the whole feature wall?
Yes. Most feature walls need more than one trade, such as mouldings and a finish, or sculpting and colour. Our own team designs and installs every part, so the cornice, the relief and the plaster are planned together and finished to the same standard.
How does a feature wall commission work?
You send a photo of the wall, its size and the feeling you want. We suggest finishes, draw or sample the idea, show you colours and textures on real boards in the room, then our team prepares the wall and builds the feature. Start via our contact page.
Will I see samples before choosing?
Yes. You see the colours and textures on real boards in the room itself before anything starts. For Venetian plaster, the sample board is the place to start, and our colours page shows the range.
Can a feature wall be metallic?
Yes. Liquid metal uses real brass, bronze, copper or iron, burnished to a shine or left to patina. Gilding in gold, silver or copper leaf is another route to a metallic wall.
Do you work with interior designers and architects on feature walls?
Yes. We develop sculptural and plaster elements with designers from plans, elevations or a reference image, and provide samples for approval. Our specifier page covers samples, design conversations and a direct line.
