Luxury Wall Panels for Designers & Builders

Trade Program for Interior Designers & Builders | Demvel Upholstered Wall Panels

Why designers & builders choose Demvel panels

Clients want spaces that feel fresh, tailored, and memorable. Upholstered feature walls deliver that without heavy custom millwork: 1–2 day installs, photo-ready results, and rich textures. For studios and GC teams we provide style breadth, trade account pricing, and spec-ready documentation for smooth execution.

What makes projects smoother

  • Design flexibility. Minimal, modern, classic, art-deco — patterns, spacing, height, fabric/leather, and color tailored to your concept.
  • Faster client approval. Samples, finish photos, and texture files help clients “see it” sooner with fewer rounds.
  • Spec-ready docs. CAD/elevations, cut-sheets, install diagrams — easy to drop into Revit or design packages.
  • Clean, quick install. Prefinished panels; 1–2 day on site; low dust/noise; fewer end-of-punch surprises.
  • Predictable logistics. Dependable lead times, phased deliveries by area, dedicated account support.
  • Trade pricing. Ongoing work through a trade account with preferred pricing and priority quoting.

Options: acoustic performance, fire-rated materials, custom colors, precise cutouts for outlets/lighting.

Let’s count it — real value for studios & GC teams

Scenario A — Residential living room

Baseline:
Custom millwork/slat wall ≈ $8,500; paint/finishing/install ≈ 10–12 days.
With Demvel:
Panels + install ≈ $3,800–$4,500; on-site 1–2 days.
Client impact:
Budget saved ≈ $3–5k + faster handover.
Studio margin:
Trade margin/PM fee ≈ $800–$1.5k with a clear, honest client price.

Illustrative; depends on city, logistics, and detailing.

Scenario B — Builder / model home

Baseline:
Standard finish package; average listing photos/tour engagement; risk of late-cycle discounts.
With Demvel:
Two feature walls (living + primary) → standout photos and better tour retention.
Revenue levers:
Design option upsell worth $5–10k + fewer incentives.
Ops benefit:
−5–10 days to sale in active markets thanks to stronger first impression.

Works for showrooms, models/spec homes, and sales offices.

Today’s designer & builder priorities

What studios keep asking for

  • Quick approvals: real finish photos and physical samples to align clients fast.
  • Spec clarity: CAD/elevations, textures for renders, and clear substrate requirements.
  • Predictable lead times and phased deliveries to protect schedules.
  • Flexible customization that still fits budget — value-engineered without losing the luxury read.
  • Install support: tech answers, templates, and checklists to avoid RFIs and punch-list bloat.
“Give me finishes that are premium — and read that way on camera — without blowing the timeline. That’s the sweet spot.”
