We recommend an accent wall \u2013 a wall in a room that stands out and creates a focal point. By adding a pop of a different colour on just one wall, you\u2019ll save money on paint supplies whilst adding visual interest and depth to a space. Accent walls tend to require less than 3 litres of paint, totalling spend to around \u00a320.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
