When we bought this lovely mid-century modern house a few years ago, my only real complaint was “I hate that fucking wall!”

Short term solution was to bury it behind bookshelves, but it’s still there… LURKING. It irks me just knowing it’s still there, that half-assed wainscoting made of plywood strips and blue paint.

At a minimum, my plan is to pull the plywood off and re-paint before putting the bookracks back, but there has to be something nicer.

Maybe something like this above the bookracks where the wall is exposed? I dunno. I’m open to ideas.

    Oh yeah, FUNCTIONALLY, the house is fine.*

    *“fine” defined as “built in 1951 so there is not a single ground wire in the entire house so we have 4 GFI outlets for the important stuff.” 😉
