Beadboard Sheets Become Chevron Paneling

Designer Janelle Steinberg of the blog Maison Classique transformed a plain, builder-grade powder room by designing an innovative use of beadboard paneling. Placed on an angle to create a chevron pattern, it changes the entire look of the space. Makes you think about beadboard paneling in a whole new way. Love it!!!
In progress - vertical stiles provide a finished look to the seams of the chevron pattern.
Janelle also posted a very detailed schematic plan for the transformation. You can check it out here.

How many of us are slapping our heads saying, "Now why didn't I think of that?!"
It is a fab cost effective treatment. Ceilings maybe?

Seriously clever. What a beautiful effect and I love the grasscloth paired with it.

Love love the chevron beadboard. What a fresh take on such a classic element! Great feature - will refer to this in the future I'm sure!

Michele, that chevron pattern would be wicked on a ceiling. Also, love the denim looking grasscloth in deep blue. I think I'd put molding on ever strip.
