Mastering the Charm of Black Board and Batten

When installing a black board and batten wall on a stairway, there are a few key things to consider. First, ensure you measure the wall’s height and width accurately to create a balanced, visually appealing pattern. Stairways can present challenges, as the wall may not be perfectly flat—so you'll need to adjust the boards to follow the angle of the stairs. Choose a black paint that complements the surrounding decor and provides contrast without overwhelming the space. Finally, consider the size of the battens; narrower battens work well in smaller spaces, while wider battens make a bold statement in larger areas. Proper installation and paint application will elevate your stairway with a timeless, sophisticated look.
