Established in 1998, Wonderful Walls, Etc. renders faux-finishing and other decorative-painting techniques in fine homes across Chicagoland.

Working with homeowners and interior designers, we develop and execute wall (and other surface) finishes that demonstrate careful consideration of color, value, texture, and technique to add impact, warmth, and drama to a room. Using water-based materials, our finishes are known to be on the cutting edge.

As for more familiar finishes, some techniques we render beautifully are:

Textures : Suede, Sandstone, Stucco
Glazing : Colorwashing, Strié, Linen-Weave
Plasters : Venetian Plaster, Olde World Plaster
Traditional : Marbling, Stone, Wood Graining

Besides faux finishes, other services we offer or procure:

Murals and Trompe L'Oeil
Stenciling
Color Consultation

This website contains a few examples of our work; by no means is this site inclusive. We are constantly experimenting and learning new and innovative finishes to offer our clients. May you find this site informative and inspirational.
