Wallpaper can bring a room to life, so it’s important to pick the right one to suit your tastes and reflect your unique style.
Follow our tips to achieve the look you want for your home, from the entrance hall to the bedroom!
- Give some careful thought to the mood you wish to create in each room. Calm patterns will suit the bedroom and promote a relaxed atmosphere. Busier designs are more striking and better for areas you spend less time in, like the hallway.
- Take a look at some different Wallpaper Collections if you would like the patterns and colours in adjacent rooms to compliment each other. They are generally designed to work together so will match in style and tone.
- The subtlety of small scale prints makes them easy to live with and they partner well with numerous other styles and colours.
- For a sense of drama, larger prints work well in spacious rooms. If used in smaller sized rooms they will add a feeling of cosy intimacy.
- To capture a timeless appeal for your room, opt for stripes or a smaller, nature inspired design. Larger scale prints can be very fashionable but do tend to date more easily.
- Trailing designs that run vertically from ceiling to floor work superbly in rooms with low ceilings as they visually extend the walls making them look taller.
- Make use of wallpaper websites before you commit to a choice. Many of them have galleries where you can view different styles in situ to give you inspiration for your own interior design.
- Order samples of wallpaper you like (as large a size as possible) and hang them up in the room you wish to decorate to ensure you are happy with your choice. Take note of the colour and scale of the pattern in particular.
- For a simpler decorating process, you can buy Paste the Wall types of paper, removing the need for pasting tables as you hang it straight onto a pasted wall.
