Fluted panels are made from either a combination of wood fibres and plastic, or synthetic plastic polymer, and can be used in your kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms. There are so many ways fluted panels can be customised and infused into a space to create a distinct atmosphere or mood, and we have compiled creative ways this stunning feature can add character and personality to the various areas of your very own home!
The beautiful textured grooves of fluted panels make for a visual interest that stands out from other plain walls of the living room, easily captivating our eyes and attention.

A particularly noteworthy use of these fluted panels is how it brings out the three hanging lamps beautifully! The interior designer had intentionally thought it out — the deep wood with vertical lines contrasts the bright colourful lamps with speckled texture, and they compliment each other tastefully. This visual impact would not be as effective if the backdrop had been another plain wall. Fluted walls can be thoughtfully composed with other small accessories, unique to the homeowners, to create a work of art as part of their living space.
Besides creating a focal point, fluted panels can be used for emphasising larger pieces of furniture. In the living room of this three-bedder condominium, we can see that fluted panels have been used as a backdrop for a television console.

We have explored how fluted panels are used to contrast from the rest of your living room, thus creating a focal point.

Fluted panels have the ability to create a biophilic design, which refers to design choices that connects the homeowner to nature. Biophilic design reduces stress and increases productivity, making it a popular effect that homeowners sought for in their homes. However, in certain interior design styles such as industrial or contemporary projects, incorporating elements of nature may be tricky. This is where fluted panels can be useful!
The natural wood tone fluted panels can offer a sense of warmth into industrial homes such as this four-room BTO at Fernvale.

That is a brilliant way to further increase the overall luxury of the living space with the use of fluted panels.
Using accent walls and changing the flooring is an outdated tactic to divide spaces. Fluted panels visually separates spaces from the rest of the house, achieving a sectioned effect within your home.

Besides using fluted panels for the backdrop of your bed, you can also directly use them for your bed’s headboard, such as this Japandi-styled bedroom!
The wood tone of the headboard matches the platform of the bed, creating a soothing and relaxing atmosphere.
However, it can also create a luxurious atmosphere, depending on the choice of lighting and tone of the fluted panel. The lighting strips behind the headboard creates light and shadow between the grooves, making the dark fluted panels appear golden gradually. This gradient further adds elegance to the luxurious centrepiece bed.
