A resilient, pressure-locking filler strip is provided for closing a gap or joint of a wall panel assembly. The filler strip has a flange portion for enclosing the gap and a pressure-locking clip for compressive retention in the gap. The clip is selectively cooperable with the flange portion for ready interchange of a plurality of different size clips for retention in a plurality of different size gaps. The clip includes first and second opposed gripping portions for compressive engagement to associated side wall portions of the gap. In one embodiment the flange portion comprises a first flange and a second flange depending normally away from the first flange for enclosing a gap or joint at a wall corner. In another embodiment the flange portion comprises a first flange and a second flange coplanar with the first flange for enclosing a gap in a flat wall section of the wall assembly.
