Paint? Check. Flooring? Chosen. Cabinets? Installed. Your remodel is almost complete — but something’s missing.
Enter: the accent wall. Or, better yet… the accent door.
At IGFI Construction we believe every remodel deserves a moment — a detail that turns the space from beautiful to bold. Accent features are the easiest (and most fun) way to add personality, texture, and interest without blowing your budget.

🎯 What Is an Accent Wall or Door?
An accent wall is one wall in a room that’s treated differently — a splash of color, wood paneling, wallpaper, tile, or even stone — to add visual impact.
An accent door is its cooler cousin: a feature door with contrast color, unique materials, or eye-catching design that turns a boring transition into a design moment.
They’re simple upgrades with a huge return on visual impact.
🧱 Popular Accent Wall Ideas We Love
1. Wood Slat Walls
Perfect for: living rooms, entryways, and bedrooms. Adds warmth, depth, and a high-end designer look — even on a single wall.
2. Bold Paint Colors
Perfect for: home offices, guest rooms, or behind a bed. Deep navy, sage green, matte black, even burnt orange — make a statement and define the room.
3. Geometric or Board & Batten Trim
Perfect for: dining rooms, staircases, kids’ rooms. Adds dimension and architectural interest while staying classic.
4. Wallpaper or Mural Walls
Perfect for: powder baths, playrooms, or behind a freestanding tub .Go subtle or go wild — either way, it’s unforgettable.
🚪 Don’t Sleep on Accent Doors
Yes, doors! They’re no longer just functional — they can be focal points.
Try this:
A bold black or deep green front door
A sliding barn door in reclaimed wood for your pantry or home office
A pop-color door in a neutral hallway
Glass-pane French doors on a casita or guest suite
It’s a small detail with serious style.
💡 Why Accent Features Matter in a Remodel
They add:✔️ Personality to cookie-cutter floorplans✔️ Color and texture without overwhelming the space✔️ That “wow” moment buyers or guests instantly remember✔️ The chance to reflect your unique taste
Whether we’re building you a new casita, reworking your living space, or revamping a dated bathroom — we’ll help you find the perfect place to add something unexpected and memorable.
After all, the best rooms aren’t just designed — they’re lived in beautifully.
