In recent years, wallpaper has often been given unfairly little attention when decorating interiors, as painting walls has become increasingly popular.

Nevertheless, stylish, beautiful wallpapers continue to be produced, which can become an excellent interior decoration.

And it doesn’t matter at all whether you want to create an original interior for a child’s room, a stylish living room or a bright hallway – this material is always appropriate, says Yulia Tychino .

Well-chosen wallpaper can change a room beyond recognition.

Manufacturers produce bright, original, sometimes extravagant wallpapers that attract special attention and look good in the room.

But there are secrets here. If you want to get a stylish and unusual interior, you should always remember that everything should be harmonious.

In addition, it is very important to maintain balance and use contrasts correctly.

If you have chosen a very bright and eye-catching decorative element, let it be placed on a neutral background.

The room should be cozy. You need to take into account the lighting and the size of the room.

There is one simple principle: wallpaper with a large pattern is not suitable for small rooms, and dark ones are not suitable for poorly lit rooms.

In addition, the tone of the wallpaper and the pattern should be in harmony with other colors in the room, such as the color of the furniture, painted walls and accessories.

Also remember that all walls should not be made either too contrasting or too monotonous.

It is not recommended to try to combine very bright wallpaper with very pale ones. Remember the functions of the room in which you want to paste them.

Wallpaper in the hallway or kitchen will get dirty quickly, so give preference to painted or vinyl. But textile wallpaper will look great in the living room.

To make a dark room brighter, cover the darkest wall with wallpaper of a lighter shade, this will visually enlarge the space.

If you like paintings and photographs on your walls, it is better to choose wallpaper with a small pattern or even plain. But textured wallpaper helps to mask the unevenness of the walls.

The most important thing here is to follow the style. But do not forget about your preferences. It is you who should feel good and comfortable in your home.
