Wood planks arranged in herringbone pattern, their grain and texture simulated through printing that replicates architectural panelling traditions. Verus Fender translates parquetry flooring vocabulary to vertical surfaces, angled boards creating chevron rhythm across walls.
The herringbone layout alternates board direction at regular intervals: planks meet at angles forming V-shaped zigzag progression characteristic of this centuries-old laying pattern. Originally developed for Roman roads where angled brick distribution bore load effectively, herringbone later appeared in timber flooring and wall panelling where structural logic became decorative virtue. Each simulated board displays wood grain texture, knots, tonal variation suggesting natural timber—likely oak or similar hardwood given the mid-brown colouring. Dimensional effects emerge through subtle shadow at board edges suggesting depth and layered construction despite flat substrate.
Printed in Cornwall with attention to wood grain authenticity and herringbone alignment precision, maintaining pattern continuity essential to convincing architectural simulation.
Verus Fender suits spaces seeking wood warmth and architectural detail without carpentry installation or rental restrictions preventing wall alterations. Studies, dining rooms, accent walls in bedrooms or living areas where herringbone panelling provides textural interest and period character. The mid-brown tones offer versatility: warm enough to provide presence, neutral enough to backdrop varied furnishing styles. Works within traditional interiors referencing historical panelling traditions, or contemporary spaces appreciating geometric pattern and natural material simulation. Consider feature wall application where herringbone rhythm creates focal interest.
