Do you ever feel your house needs a lift, yet you don’t know where to begin? Sometimes you don’t need to go through a great deal of effort to establish a trendier setting. Using wallpaper or wall-coverings is an effective way to give a totally new vibe to your space. With so many brands on the market, many of who are collaborating with well-known designers, you are definitely going to find what suits you the most. Below I will list tips on choosing your wallpaper.
1- First establish your main wall if you are planning on using a strong pattern, then soften the remaining walls with more neutral and plain designs. if you are going for a subtle look all over, then you can use the same wallpaper without feeling overwhelmed. 2- Try as much as possible to know how the pattern continues, i.e. insist on seeing an image of a full length wall, sometimes the pattern looks nice in a catalog but when on a wall looks too busy.
3- Set a budget in mind, some wall-coverings are priced per sq.m and some per roll, this will help you with knowing what to expect. The place you are purchasing from should be able to help you with measurements.
4- Have photos of your furniture, fabric cuttings, whatever you think may help with choosing the right tonalities.
5- Decide what style are you going for, do you want a bold statement? do you want to just add warmth and nice wall finishing?
