We will be installing laminate in this room, because the original hardwood is in too bad of shape to save. Any ideas for covering up these seams and/or this pipe? I want to cover the wall behind the TV (the wall with the door) with pallet wood strips. I think that would look very cool, but the rest of the room is going to just have this weird panelling. It is odd to have it in a home like this. There is also a very unattractive drop ceiling.
Considering the idea that I may cover one wall in the room with wood strips, what are your thoughts for a creative, yet inexpensive, way to cover these seams? I will be painting the walls an extremely light almond/honey type color. I believe we are replacing that messed up door with a 6 panel door. I would be open to painting the new door just about any color that would look nice/neat in the living room. I am replacing my couches, but probably sticking with that shade of brown. The rugs are only in place to cover up nasty floors that produce many splinters. :)
