Free wall panel visualizer

Visualize wall panels and slat walls on your own wall.

Wall panel visualizer result: black acoustic slats from floor to ceiling behind a wooden bench in a terracotta hallway, with three oak-framed prints

See the whole panel run on your own wall before you buy a single slat.

Wall panel visualizer Slatted wall planner Real-size panels PNG and PDF export

See your whole accent wall before you order: how wide, how high, and in which finish.

Panel samples help with colour. They do not show how the panels look beside a bed, sideboard, switch, shelf or row of frames. This planner lets you test the full wall on your own photo first.

How it works

From room photo to panel plan in a few minutes.

You can easily try out multiple types of panels in multiple materials, try different sizes and positioning. Once happy, export the results and get measurements.

Planner with a photo of a concrete wall and sofa, ready for wall panels

Use your own wall photo

Upload a room photo or choose a plain wall colour, then mark a known distance so the preview is close to real scale.

Open the Wall panels tool

Pick acoustic slats, light felt slats, open battens, horizontal slats, fluted panels or panelling, then place the panel on the wall.

Resize by whole slats

Drag an edge and the panel adds or removes complete slats. The inspector shows the slat count, size and finish so your shopping list stays practical.

Panel types

Try the common slatted and decorative panel styles before choosing one.

Use the visualizer to compare dark felt acoustic panels, lighter felt, open timber battens, horizontal slats, fluted boards and beadboard-style panelling in the same room photo.

Acoustic slats

Wood slats on dark felt for media walls, halls and headboards.

Light felt slats

A softer backing when black felt feels too strong for the room.

Open battens

Spaced timber battens with visible wall colour between them.

Horizontal slats

A calmer line for sideboards, low walls and long rooms.

Fluted panels

Vertical relief without the dark gaps of acoustic felt panels.

Panelling

Beadboard and wainscoting-style panels for a more classic wall.

Where panels work

Six walls where panels do the heavy lifting.

Wall panels are rarely just decoration. They frame a bed, anchor a sofa, calm a busy hallway or warm up a cold surface. Try each idea on a photo of your own wall before you commit.

Black acoustic slats from floor to ceiling behind a bed with two gold frames — Acoustic slats
Headboard wall
Run slats from the floor to the ceiling behind the bed, exactly as wide as the headboard, so the bed looks built in.

Oak slatted wall from floor to ceiling behind a wooden bench, with a black arched mirror and two wall sconces in a terracotta entrance — Oak slats + mirror
Entrance with mirror and lights
Oak slats behind the hall bench, an arched mirror in the middle and a sconce on each side. No frames needed: the mirror and the lights do the decorating.

White open battens behind a wooden bench in a sage green hallway with two frames — Open battens
Narrow hallway
Spaced battens add rhythm to a narrow hall without closing it in. The wall colour still shows between them.

Smoked oak slats from floor to ceiling behind a grey sofa, with two floating oak shelves holding plants, flowers and a brass clock — Smoked oak + shelves
Slats with floating shelves
Two floating oak shelves on a smoked oak slat wall give plants, flowers and a clock a home. The shelves break up the lines without hiding them.

Light oak slats on pale felt from floor to baseboard behind an olive sofa, with three black frames and a guitar beside it — Light oak slats
Behind the sofa
Run light oak slats wider than the sofa and centre a row of three frames above the back cushions.

Walnut slatted wall from floor to ceiling behind a double bed, with no frames — Walnut slats
Let the slats be the art
Not every wall needs frames. A full-height run of walnut slats behind the bed is enough on its own; the bedside lamps do the rest.

More than panels

Plan the rest of the wall in the same file.

Add frames, shelves, picture lights, mirrors, clocks, plants and decorative objects around the panels. That makes it easier to see if a panel run crowds a shelf, hides a switch or needs another frame beside it.

Wall panel planning questions

Is the wall panel visualizer free?

Yes. You can design, save locally and export from the browser without an account.

Can I plan wall panels on a photo of my room?

Yes. Upload a wall photo, set a known measurement, and place panels directly on that photo.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, including the Wall panels button in the mobile More sheet, though detailed resizing is easier on a larger screen.

Can I order from the measurements?

Use the export as a planning preview and shopping aid. Always check the actual product dimensions, wall material and fixing method before ordering or drilling.

Design before you drill

Try the panel run on your own wall first.

Open the acoustic panel wall design tool, choose a panel type and finish, then export a measured preview when it looks right.
