wall panels

Mounted interior sheets

Wall panels are prefabricated sections used to cover or construct walls.

They may be decorative—wood paneling, acoustic panels, or textured surfaces that add visual interest—or structural, forming the walls themselves in modular construction.

We installed fabric wall panels to improve the room's acoustics.

The term covers everything from ornate wainscoting to utilitarian drywall sheets.
