Wallpapers are back in use and are an excellent way to transform a space. From bold, graphic prints to subtle textures, there are so many options to choose from. Wallpapers have the ability to hide imperfections in walls and provide insulation, which can help save on energy costs. They also have a practical advantage over paint in that they are often more durable and easier to clean. Certain types of wallpaper can also help reduce noise levels in a room, making it a good option for bedrooms or home offices.
However, it’s important to note that wallpaper requires a good quality surface to be applied to, which means having a properly prepared wall. Additionally, there are different types of wallpaper to choose from, including self-adhesive and traditional paste-based options, which can have different adhesion and removal characteristics.
As an interior designer, I can help guide clients in selecting the perfect wallpaper for their needs, taking into consideration the space, the desired atmosphere, and personal preferences. I’m particularly drawn to wallpapers that embody natural patterns and textures, as they can evoke a calming, grounding effect in a room. Incorporating elements of nature can help create a soothing and welcoming environment in any space.
So, whether you’re looking to make a statement or create a calming atmosphere in your home or workspace, consider the many benefits of wallpaper. And don’t forget to consult with a professional to ensure the best results!
Now, take a look at the before-and-after photo I’ve attached to this post and see how a space can be transformed by adding wallpaper. I’ve chosen a photo wallpaper that features a beautiful tree trunk hole. It looks quite natural and different, doesn’t it? 🙂
