"This idea from designer Summer Thornton is a great example of an easy way to give a space architectural interest, colour and pattern all in one go, while keeping the project budget manageable," says Apartment Therapy's managing editor, Janel Laban. "She simply framed out a wallpapered section of the wall with painted moulding for maximum impact and minimum cost."
