Seeking Advice: Wainscotting / Shadow Boxing

Hello from sunny Seattle, WA.

I'm trying to come up w/ a way to add wainscotting to an office. I'd
like to use stainable wood (instead of mdf) to achieve a rich, dark
color -maybe something cherry-toned.

what is the most economical manner to achieve this?

I was thinking about using 3/4 birch ply ripped into rails/stiles and
then pocket-holed together, w/ a 1/4 birch insert in the middle and
some picture-frame molding around the edges.

does this seem like a reasonable appoach?

any adive is appreciated.

THANKS!
