Wainscoting box size help request
Hi everyone, I'm planning to add raised wainscoting panels but I'm having trouble deciding how to layout and size the boxes. - chair rail molding already exists at 36 inches - space between baseboard and chair rail molding 27 inches - I want to have 4 inches around the boxes which will make the height of each box 19 inches. What are best practices around the number of boxes per wall? do I keep same box sizes around the entire room varying the spacing between boxes? 2a. do I keep same box sizes for each wall and varying the horizontal spacing between boxes? 2b. Do I break down the walls that have walkways or windows in separate sections and have each section with its own box width but 4 inch spacing? I'm leaning towards option 2b, try to keep the spacing consistent. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
