How to add paneling to a corner wall in kitchen?

[dchur]

Hey team,

We have a corner dining area in the kitchen and want to add some paneling to it to make it a bit of a feature with paintings in the larger panels.

For reference the wall on the left (Wall A) is 1940mm and the wall on the right is 2760mm (from the corner on the left, to the cupboard on the right).

Given that the walls are of two different widths, we thought to have a design that is a mix of two different panel designs. We can call Panel A the slim one that is 300mm wide, and Panel B the large one that is 940mm wide. Panel B is the one that would have photo frames in it.

Given the widths of the walls, this works pretty much perfectly for us to do Wall A having panels: A B A. Then Wall B would have panels: A B B A.

I've mocked this up below. On the superimposed version of the actual area, the widths are not to scale.

My questions are:

1) Is this too "busy" for the area?

2) Given the width difference for the two walls, and factoring in the cupboard on the right, is this sort of layout appropriate?

3) We would want the top of the panels to be 10cm from the ceiling so they are quite tall. This puts them higher than the top of the cupboard on the right, which sits at 24cm from the top of the ceiling. Would this look odd?

Here is a real world example of what we are expecting the look to be like:
