A system includes a plurality of modules configured for attachment to a mounting surface. At least some of the plurality of modules include a panel having a decorative major surface disposed opposite an interior surface and a structural web element extending from the interior surface, thereby defining a cavity on the interior surface, the cavity at least partially bordered by the structural web element. An attachment surface of the structural web element opposite the interior surface is configured to abut the mounting surface or to abut the attachment surface of another module. At least two modules are configured for adjacent attachment to the mounting surface so that their decorative major surfaces are co-extensive at a joint between the two modules. A method of modifying a mounting surface of a room includes attaching first and second modules to the mounting surface co-extensively at a joint between the modules.

1. A system comprising a plurality of modules configured for attachment to a mounting surface, a first module of the plurality of modules comprising: a panel having a decorative major surface disposed opposite an interior surface, the panel comprising a plurality of edges;an arrangement of structural elements extending from the interior surface, the arrangement comprising: first and second structural elements that meet at a right angle, wherein the first and second structural elements are each disposed proximate and parallel to an edge of the panel; anda third structural element that is parallel to the first or second structural element, wherein the third structural element is spaced from all edges of the panel that are parallel to the third structural element;wherein an attachment surface of the arrangement of structural elements opposite the interior surface is configured to abut the mounting surface or to abut the attachment surface of another module; andwherein at least two modules are configured for adjacent attachment to the mounting surface so that their decorative major surfaces are co-extensive at a joint between the two modules. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one exterior face of the first or second structural element is a joining surface at the joint. 3. The system of claim 1 further comprising a second module wherein at least one exterior face of a structural element is a curved surface. 4. The system of claim 1 wherein the panel extends beyond the first or second structural element in at least one direction. 5. The system of claim 1 wherein the third structural element comprises an aperture through the third structural element. 6. The system of claim 1 wherein the first module is made from a foam material. 7. The system of claim 1 wherein the first module comprises at least two cavities that are identically sized. 8. The system of claim 1 wherein the cavity is filled with material between the interior surface and the attachment surface. 9. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one module comprises a portion wherein the decorative major surface is disposed opposite the attachment surface with no cavity therebetween. 10. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one module comprises a decorative major surface that is curved. 11. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one module comprises a panel finishing sheet attached to the decorative major surface. 12. The system of claim 1 further comprising an attachment clip, and wherein the cavity comprises a clip attachment slot into which the attachment clip fits. 13. A method of modifying a mounting surface of a room, the method comprising: abutting a first attachment surface of a first module to the mounting surface and attaching the first module to the mounting surface, the first module comprising: a first panel having a first decorative major surface disposed opposite a first interior surface; anda first structural element extending from the first interior surface, thereby defining a first cavity on the first interior surface, the first cavity at least partially bordered by the first structural element, wherein the first attachment surface is a surface of the first structural element opposite the first interior surface; andabutting a second attachment surface of a second module to the mounting surface and attaching the second module to the mounting surface, the second module comprising: a second panel having a second decorative major surface disposed opposite a second interior surface; anda second structural element extending from the second interior surface, thereby defining a second cavity on the second interior surface, the second cavity at least partially bordered by the second structural element, wherein the second attachment surface is a surface of the second structural element opposite the second interior surface;wherein the second module is attached to the mounting surface adjacent the first module so that the second decorative major surface is co-extensive with the first decorative major surface at a joint between the first module and the second module;wherein the first and second attachment surfaces are attached to the mounting surface. 14. The method of claim 13 further comprising trimming an edge of at least one of the first panel and second panel. 15. The method of claim 13 further comprising cutting through the first structural element of the first module at a cut line. 16. The method of claim 15 further comprising attaching an edging material to the first module at the cut line. 17. The method of claim 15 further comprising cutting alongside the first structural element of the first module at a cut line. 18. The method of claim 13 further comprising marking an intended cut line that extends onto both the first module and the second module. 19. The method of claim 13 further comprising filling at least one of the first cavity and the second cavity with material between the interior surface and the attachment surface. 20. The method of claim 13 further comprising mounting an attachment clip in the first cavity and attaching the first module to the mounting surface using a fastener with the attachment clip.
