Parisian Wall Panelling & Mouldings

Boiserie-inspired panelling and mouldings for the elegant Haussmannian apartment look.

Parisian interiors take their cue from the boiserie panelling and tall proportions of Haussmann-era apartments — a look built on fluted and Rococo mouldings, generous dado rails, and wall panels sized to suit high ceilings and full-height sash windows. It's less a fixed historical style than a way of specifying: pairing Georgian and Regency profiles with a lighter, more ornamental hand than a strict period restoration would call for. Our range covers the mouldings, panels and paint tones needed to recreate that look in UK properties, from a full boiserie scheme to a single feature wall.

What makes a Parisian interior

Think tall dado rails rather than low ones, fluted and reeded profiles over plain rectangle mouldings, and panel proportions that run the full height of a wall rather than stopping at chair-rail height. Finish choice matters too — soft off-whites and dove greys read as authentically Parisian, with panelling typically painted a shade lighter or darker than the wall above it for definition.
