Answer
Enhance textured walls like brick, wood paneling, or stone veneer by using grazing and accent lighting that highlights surface depth and shadow play. Position narrow beam lights close to the wall to cast dramatic shadows that reveal textures. Combine with ambient and task lighting for overall brightness and balance. This approach enriches room ambiance, adds visual interest, and complements bold paint colors or neutral tones.
