Dado height

This style is practical
in hallways, where the
walls can get knocked
in passing, and in dining
spaces, where pushed-
back chairs hit the wall.
Plus, as it only covers the
lower third of the wall,
it won’t dominate.

Create the perfect
backdrop by
painting the

walls, shutters,
panelling and

architrave the
same colour

Battens measuring
2x1in, pinned to the wall,
equidistant from each
other, finished with
an ornate picture rail
