I am recmoding the dinig room of my 1860's vintage home. I intend to install frame and (flat) panel wainscoting with a simple bevel to echo the style of the interior doors. I plan to have roughly 4 inch wide stiles and 10 in wide pannels.
I have a long wall with a non-centered window. In a perfect world, all the stiles and pannels would be equal, but I have a long wall with a non-centered window. That will probably not work out.
What's the least visible way to cheat?
- Should reduce the size of the end stiles?
- All pannels to the right of the window a slightly different size than those to the left?
- Have an odd terminating pannel at the end of the wall?
- Have odd terminating pannels abutting the window?
Is there a rule of thumb to this?
Thanks,
Steve
