A busy pattern will hide a problem best but whether you like the particular wallpaper will have the most influence on your choice.
CREATING ORDER
In areas such as the living room or the dining space, you can opt for more graphical designs. Consider only covering one wall with wallpaper and turning it into a focal point. An unpleasant living room wall can be covered to create a stunning feature wall by using texture. Add to it a bit of glamorous gold, like in this home, and the result is eye-catching elegance. Your guests won't ever have a clue of what lies behind all the glitter! Wallpaper is definitely in if you use it in the bathroom. It has become a popular trend to turn the bathroom into a stylish space and to hide its utilitarian side with elegant accent details.
THINK ABOUT THE ROOM'S USAGE
Before buying any wallpaper, the first and foremost thing that you need to keep in mind is the room’s usage. Will you use your living-room and bedroom for the same purpose? No, right? If a room has a natural dividing line, such as chair rails, use two different wallpapers, therefore it creates a feeling of height. Then buying similar type of wallpapers will be a wrong decision! Think about how you are going to use the room and what mood you want to create. Wallpaper can have a powerful effect over the way you feel in that room, so it’s important the design complements how your life.
CHOOSE APPROPRIATE PATTERNS
Choosing the right color for the walls is difficult. When you decide to sue wallpaper, you have a larger palette of colors, patterns and textures to choose from. The wallpaper often adds the finishing touch to a particular space. Small prints add a touch of pattern to the overall background color, forming a subtle backdrop. Mini prints in light, cool colors and fine textures applied to the walls and ceiling create a feeling of more space in a small room. If the mini print is in a warm, dark color, the opposite response occurs. They are often used in kitchens, bathrooms and other small spaces. Even so, the wallpaper should be the first thing to start with when decorating a space. Geometric prints give a greater impression of continuous space when applied to all the walls. They include both plaids and grids. Large geometric patterns can be bold and exciting, while small patterns can be very subtle.
CLADDING
Cladding is any material used to cover a structure's exterior. Picture a protective layer over a surface like a roof or exterior wall. Just as your skin protects internal bones and organs, cladding protects against the elements and shields against environmental conditions.
In construction, cladding, or siding, refers to coating one material with another for aesthetic and functional purposes. Cladding serves as a control feature, protecting the building from the elements. Types of cladding materials include wood, plastic (or vinyl), imitation stone or brick, and metal.
MATCHING ACCESSORIES FOR WALL
Use matching wallpaper and fabric to create a coordinated look. Tie in other accessories by picking out different tones of the colours used in the wallpaper.What if you are hanging wall art over a sofa, bed or table? Choose a piece of art (or a series) that is the same length as the furniture piece or smaller. Avoid wall decor that is wider than the furniture piece; it looks totally weird.Take note of the preexisting features in your home you can highlight. Architectural details such as crown molding, wooden beams, hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, and mosaic-tile backsplashes are all worth focusing on.
