I'm like you, I don't think a flannel display wall would hold blocks on those slopes, but I think a Block Butler might, because it is definitely sticky to touch. Otherwise, what about the kind of display wall that some people use, that is like a roller blind? If you fixed it to one of those sloping ceilings, when you pulled it down, it would hang straight.

You have a terrific room, and I envy you all that space.
Regarding the Block Butler. I had been wanting to get one for several years and I finally bought one, the 6 foot size. It sticks to the wall just fine but when I place my blocks on it, they fall off, sometimes the same day. Perhaps it is due to high humidity. So I then stuck pins to hold them to the design wall. That worked but then the glue stuck to the pins and now I have to clean the pins.
Has anyone else run into this problem?
