Wainscoting for Hallways is another ‘must have’ Hamptons feature, however, is equally as popular in coastal, modern, colonial, and French provincial homes.
Hallways are the connecting space between rooms and as such in the past were commonly overlooked while other rooms received the majority of the budget and design focus. Australian designers and homeowners have seen the light and are now focusing on using these spaces to anchor the design style from one room to the next. As hallways are high traffic areas and are more prone to knocks and bumps in day to day living, Wainscoting is an idea solution.

At this Bowral Country Retreat the hallway is a central feature leading from the front door to the rest of the home. The rich timber flooring, cream walls and gorgeously detailed wainscoting are what makes this Hamptons styled house a home. The wainscoting panels are tall and narrow topped with a substantial chair rail and finished with large detailed skirting boards from Intrim.

This house at Yowie Caringbah is all about the details. Proving a glamourous fresh, mint staircase, cleverly detailed wainscoting in the hallways and pale blond timbers are the perfect blend for a coastal styled home. This style of wainscoting wall panelling was created with a modern twist using a panel within panel effect. The looks was achieved by using 2 different size Intrim CR10 Chair Rails, 115mm wide on the outside square with the matching 66mm chair rail on the inside square. The visual affect of the long rectangle wainscoting panels draws the eye to showcase the length of the wall.
