I love this style… a light faux on the lower walls with some sort of ‘chair rail’ or border.  I painted this in a home in Denver, CO and I think I really captured the feel of the areas scenery.

This faux is a made up ‘Colorado prairie’ color wash.  With just a few bits of muraling the entire room is used. Using decorative paint techniques to accent can give a room a 360 degree scenic feel without the room becoming cluttered or overwhelmed by a single wall mural.
