The bottom half of an interior wall is referred to by several different terms depending on its architectural treatment and construction style. When decorated with paneling, it is widely known as wainscoting, which encompasses styles like beadboard, board-and-batten, and raised wooden panels. When finished with a flat horizontal paint separation or demarcated by a wooden molding, the lower section is often called the lower wall or dado, a historical architectural term for the lower portion of a pedestal wall. Additionally, the very lowest edge where the wall meets the floor is specifically covered and protected by a baseboard trim.
