Overview
Diagonal lines run corner to corner inside each panel, forming diamonds across the wall. A graphic statement wall in modern and mid-century rooms.
Geometric layout on a 10 ft hallway wall
Molding over the full wall height, upper and lower rows divided by a chair rail. On a 10 ft wall with an 8 ft ceiling this gives 3 frames per row, each 34.7 in wide, with 50 in upper and 21 in lower frames. The layout uses about 43.87 m of 2.5 cm molding, or 19 sticks of 240 cm, including 10% waste. Long, narrow walls suit a repeating rhythm of equal frames.
Building the geometric pattern
Fix the outer frame, then run diagonals corner to corner. Each diagonal end is cut at the frame's angle; measure it once per frame size and reuse the cut.

How much molding do I need for a 10 ft hallway wall with geometric frames?
About 43.87 m (144 linear ft) including a chair rail and 10% waste, which is 19 sticks of 240 cm. That assumes 3 frames per row, 34.7 in wide, on an 8 ft ceiling.
How high should the chair rail be in a hallway?
About one third of the ceiling height: 32 in on an 8 ft ceiling, 36 in on 9 ft and 40 in on 10 ft. Long, narrow walls suit a repeating rhythm of equal frames.
