Room design with 2 types of wallpaper. What wallpaper to paste in the hall: beautiful solutions. The method of dividing the walls into two parts
Specialization: facade finishing, interior decoration, construction of dachas, garages. The experience of an amateur gardener and horticulturist. He also has experience in repairing cars and motorcycles. Hobbies: playing the guitar and much more, for which there is not enough time :)
How to glue wallpaper beautifully and modernly so that its flaws are hidden, and the advantages remain in sight? I often have to solve these problems, so I will gladly share my experience. In addition, I will tell you how to properly paste wallpaper on the walls.
Interesting methods of wallpapering
You can achieve an interesting appearance of the finish and solve the above tasks by combining wallpaper different type. Moreover, the combination can be implemented in several ways:
Different methods of combination allow us to solve various problems, therefore, we will further consider all of the above options and their features.
Option 1: on different walls
Usage different wallpapers on different walls of the hall has recently been very popular. The fact is that in this way you can solve several problems:
- Diversify room design. Different wall decoration within the same room looks much more interesting and original than monotonous;
- Visually correct defects in the room. If the hall is very elongated, you can create a visual illusion so that the room is perceived more proportionally. To do this, canvases with large patterns, for example, rosettes, should be glued onto a short wall, which will visually bring it closer.
On a long wall, it is best to stick wallpaper with vertical stripes, as a result of which it will appear shorter. If you want to make the room seem larger, you can stick photo wallpapers with a perspective on a wide wall, which will visually erase the boundaries of the room;
- Create a backdrop for decor. If you want to decorate one wall decorative elements, for example, paintings or photographs, paste over it with plain wallpaper in pastel colors - they will serve as an excellent background for decor.
Option 2: combination on one wall in large areas
This technique is most often implemented for only one purpose - zoning space. In this way, you can highlight the TV area or, for example, a recreation area.
Thanks to this solution, the interior of the room looks more harmonious. In addition, the hall, divided in this way into zones, looks modern.
Less often, such a combination can be used to hide wall defects. If there are irregularities in any area, they can be masked with embossed wallpaper. However, it is necessary to choose the right color for the wallpaper. The fact is that not all colors equally well cope with the task.
Option 3: horizontal combination
The horizontal combination is a classic option that has been familiar to many since Soviet times. With this combination, as a rule, a “troika” is used:
- Striped wallpaper that is pasted from below;
- A border that provides a horizontal seam line and also forms a transition;
- Patterned wallpaper.
If you horizontally combine canvases of different tones, then place darker tapestries below, and light ones on top. Otherwise, the top will seem heavier and the room will become uncomfortable.
With a horizontal combination, it is extremely important to correctly determine the level at which the border will be located. If you divide the wall in half, then spoil the design of the entire interior. Best Solution- this is to divide the walls into three parts and make a joint on the border of the first (lower) and second parts of the wall.
Option 4: on the same wall with vertical stripes
Considering various ideas for wallpapering, one cannot fail to mention the vertical combination of stripes. This solution allows not only to decorate the walls, but also to solve the following tasks:
- Raise ceilings. Vertical stripes make the room appear taller.
- Narrow the wall. A long wall finished in this way will appear narrower.
As a rule, such a combination is performed on one or two walls. It is better to paste over the rest of the walls of the hall with the same dense ones.
Option 5: Decorating the walls with wallpaper
If you want to stick wallpaper on the walls in the hall in an interesting way, pay attention to such a technique as decorating the walls with tapestries. The most common solution is to make a panel of wallpaper. The principle of its implementation is quite simple - beautiful wallpapers are pasted on a suitable section of the wall, which differ in design from the main finish, and framed with fillets.
If you want the interior to be unusual, you can cut from various wallpapers geometric shapes, for example, squares or triangles, and paste over the walls with them. This is a rather bold decision, but it allows you to achieve a very interesting result. True, first decide on the interior of the hall, since such a combination is not suitable for every design.
What wallpaper to choose for combination
In order for the combination of wallpaper in the hall to be successful, they must be in harmony with each other. In order not to be mistaken, you can pick up canvases as follows:
- One color, but different shades. This combination can be recommended to people who prefer discreet walls and plain interiors;
- Solid and patterned. Such a solution always looks harmonious. As a rule, wallpaper on different walls is combined in this way;
- Same color but different patterns. A classic is the combination of striped wallpaper with patterned. In this case, the colors must necessarily overlap. I must say that this solution looks great in any interior, both classic and modern;
- Different colors. Fans of bright youth interiors can be recommended to use active colors with neutral ones.
All these combination methods can be called “win-win”, since the result is always positive, no matter what the price of finishing materials is. The only thing is that the decoration should match the interior of the room.
Sticking technology
Finally, consider how the wallpapering in the hall is carried out. This work can be divided into 5 steps:

Conclusion
We have reviewed the most interesting options wallpapering, as well as the technology for performing this work. To better understand the information, watch the video in this article. If you did not find the answer to any of your questions - write comments, and I will be happy to answer you.
Hello! I continue a series of articles that inspired me to view ads for the sale of real estate on Avito when I chose us new apartment. I understand them typical mistakes in decoration, which I met literally in every second apartment. I already wrote about, the turn came to the wallpaper, namely the combination of different wallpapers in one room. And it seems that today there will be a mega post, because there is not just a lot of information, but a lot.
Lyrical introduction or where the problem grows legs
First of all, I want to note that, judging by what I saw, the combination of wallpapers is really a very popular technique in Izhevsk. And I think things are exactly the same in the entire post-Soviet space. I saved literally 80% of these photos, because about the same number of people use this method incorrectly. Something from the series: I saw this in the “housing problem”. Then I looked at the pictures on the Internet and did everything exactly the same. In fact, not exactly the same, but often quite the opposite.
I tried to figure out where the legs grow from. As usual, I googled the request “how to correctly combine wallpapers with each other in one room” (judging by the statistics, such requests in different options monthly recruit more than 10 thousand people (!!!) and looked at the top five sites in the search results. It’s just that usually no one looks further 🙂 And then a lot fell into place for me.
All articles are written by copywriters who are not at all interested in modern design and decoration, some websites of construction offices, repair companies. All information is rotten and of little use, and at times simply harmful.
Who are these designers? Where do they recommend it? In fact modern decoration allows for both. But in terms of the number of interiors, painted plain walls or plain wallpapers still lead by a wide margin, and not combinations.
The biggest difficulty is to understand that the combination must necessarily pursue some goal, practically program a person, make him look at the point you need, and not just not to be bored. This is not enough. If the goal is such, then it is almost guaranteed to get nonsense.
And now enough of the lyrics, it's time to sort through the archive of photos that I saved and show on their example the typical types of wallpaper mixes and the most common mistakes. Sit back, read, look carefully and learn from the mistakes of others.
Vertical arrangement of different wallpapers
This is the most common way at the moment. If you strongly generalize, then you can combine:
- patterned and plain,
- two types with different pattern
The first way is the most common. Programs about repair and design firmly instilled in the everyday life of our citizens the concept of an accent wall and zoning. But they never explained which wall to choose as an accent wall and on what basis, according to what criteria. It is on this wall that wallpaper with a pattern is glued, and on the rest - plain.
The main criterion by which you can determine whether it is worth focusing on it is its location. There must be sufficient distance to ensure good review. For example, in Khrushchev's kitchen, in principle, there is no place for this.
Usually they accent the wall against which the eye rests when entering the room. Or it can be located behind some functional area, a group of furniture, for example, behind dining table, a sofa with an armchair, a workplace that stands out even more against the background of suitable wallpapers.
Almost unmistakably, our parents determined it when they hung a carpet. Just imagine instead of a roll of wallpaper you have a chic antique Uzbek kilim. What wall would you hang it on? Will it be well seen from different viewpoints, will something argue with him for attention?
Example #1
In this accent living room (with flowers), it was worth making one wall for upholstered furniture, and the rest of the walls are plain (and preferably in the background color of the flowers). As a result, it is not clear what was singled out at all: either the wall behind the TV, or the end of the room with a window ... What was the idea? There is no idea, everything looks as if they took a couple of rolls left over from the last repair, since the main ones were not enough.
Badly
Example #2
Then the same error, what's the idea? "Carpet" in this case should hang over the sofa. It seems that the wall for the accent was chosen by tossing a coin, just from the bullshit. It is not clear why the person sitting on this sofa is asked to look at the left wall. And the colors themselves are well chosen.
Badly
Example #3
In the following example, I like the choice of color for the main wallpaper and the choice of the wall for the accent. Sufficient viewing distance that allows you to appreciate the view as a whole. But it is completely incomprehensible why the active wallpaper went further and settled above doorway. Because of this, the whole point of the accent wall was lost. If zoning was meant (corridor and living room), then why were they combined at all? Same error - no idea. Now it just seems that the corridor and the ball room have different finishes, the partition was demolished and everything was left as it was.
Badly
This implies another necessary condition.
It is necessary to correctly determine the boundaries of the accent wall. This is the whole wall, from corner to corner, and not some separate piece behind it and not several walls at the same time.
Example #4
The joints of the combined wallpaper should be in the corners, and not in the middle of the wall. Firstly, such a joint almost always looks unaesthetic or it seems that there simply wasn’t enough wallpaper.
No idea, sloppy joint.
Badly
Example #5
Why bother and glue up to the wall or was it really not enough?
Badly
Example #6
In the next photo, without a doubt, the wallpaper is deliberately pasted only in the center. This is a typical example of meaningless zoning, when repairs are made without understanding the future interior as a whole. I am 99% sure that a sofa or TV will be located along this wall.
This arrangement is a claim to symmetry, which severely limits the arrangement of furniture. By placing the sofa in the center of this composition, you can no longer move it a little to the left or right without re-gluing the wallpaper. Well, i.e. you can move, but you are provided with nonsense. Examples of the consequences of such pasting will be a little lower.
Badly
Example #7
Corridor in the same apartment. A claim to symmetry, but without the slightest understanding of how terrible it is in combination with unbalanced switches. What prevented you from choosing other wallpapers where they would not be so noticeable and sticking them all over this wall? After all, the wall itself is just perfect for an accent. Unsuccessful wallpaper, pasting with bits.
Badly
Example #8
Another arrangement of wallpaper with a stub above the sofa, which visually separates the sofa and armchair from each other. What is the idea? Focus on the entire wall, not on a piece of it, except if there are any constructive protrusions.
Badly
Example #9
The logical result of the cores on the wall. The sofa was moved, but the wallpaper remained.
Badly
Example #10
Something went wrong ... In connection with the addition to the family, I had to make a rearrangement. It is now impossible to catch the initial idea.
Badly
Example #11
It is impossible to predict in advance exactly to the centimeter how you will arrange your furniture if the interior is formed spontaneously. At least you need a strip of wallpaper, but it would be better to continue to the end of the wall so that the chairs and the table look like a single group.
By the way, cool, a table on one leg has not seen such for sale.
Badly
The patchwork technique itself is not so bad, but not in this form, of course.
Badly
Example #13
The idea "so as not to be bored" ruined more than one interior. In the nursery in the next photo, the parents bought the whole set of wallpaper collection at once: with a pattern, green and orange. And used in one room all at once. The wall for accent wallpaper with a pattern, in my opinion, is well chosen. But! What are the stripes for? Why bright orange behind the curtains, because the window itself is a self-sufficient architectural accent.
As a result, the gaze does not focus on one thing, wanders randomly, because everything is arguing with each other for attention. Enumerating the areas of active colors, the accent wall is lost. Not observed. It would be much better to combine instead of orange and green "companions" to take a neutral beige, which serves as a background for the picture.
Badly
Example #14
In general, companion wallpapers are evil. This is such an inconspicuous trap, it seems that if some designers at the factory made them compatible, then there can be no mistake. In fact, as it can, almost all examples of the use of these pairs are extremely unsuccessful.
For example, let's look at the combination of wallpaper in the next room. It is absolutely certain that they are companions. As for the compatibility of colors and patterns, I have no questions, everything is really good. But! Both types of wallpaper have a very active pattern, i.e. It is completely unclear which of them is the main one, and which is the additional one.
What would be nice when combining patterns of sofa cushions does not work at all with wallpaper. Looking at this interior again, the idea is completely incomprehensible, which wall is accent? Left, right, end? What are different wallpapers used for? Why do different wallpapers have equal surface areas?
As usual, the result of a senseless, thoughtless combination is a complete mess.
The situation is exacerbated by the wrong scale floral pattern, already low ceilings, seem lower than they really are. An extremely bad choice. If you missed the article on how to choose, be sure to read.
Everything is bad
Example #15
In the bedroom, the perfect place to accent is the wall behind the head of the bed. Remember carpet? That's where it should have been hung. Rarely, some other options are possible: the walls are of some irregular geometry, have ledges, the bed is in a niche, etc.
In this bedroom, the owners again fell into the trap of companions, bought a couple with drawings of the same activity and it was not clear what they wanted to highlight. The wall behind the bed? Then why did they take over the window? TV wall? This wall is not suitable for an accent.
And again, the terrible scale of colors, hiding the height of the ceilings. The link to the article about this error was just above.
Badly
Example #16
In order to clearly define the accent wall and make sense in wallpaper zoning, the drawings should be different in activity (in attracting attention to themselves)
Badly
Example #17
You should not use three types of wallpaper, as in the children's room in example No. 13, there is too much of everything. Zones, zones, zones, crushing already small space into pieces ... Only one wall should have been accented (either behind the bed or opposite the entrance at the table). Three types are overkill. And if there were 4 types of companions in the collection, would they buy everything, by the number of walls?
Badly
Horizontal arrangement of different wallpapers
Example #18
To date, this method is simply obsolete - this is a hello from the first renovations of the nineties. Then the first companions and paper borders appeared on sale. The hottest fashion. But today there are simply no good modern examples of such a combination of wallpapers. I named it so that the list was complete, for information. You will just know that it is there, but keep in mind that it is better not to use it for the next 50 years.
The horizontal line cuts the wall in two and hides the height of the ceiling.
Badly
Combining photo wallpaper with wallpaper
The combination of wallpaper with photo wallpaper deserves special attention. I noticed that with them, at first glance, things are somewhat better, at least the choice of the wall is almost always successful. But still there are some nuances.
Example #19
I like the choice for the accent wall: the right location at the end of the room, near the bed, there is enough distance in the room to appreciate the whole image, and not stare at it point-blank. I like the large size, from wall to wall, joints in the corners. It's all great and well done. But the very combination of photo wallpapers and a pattern on the rest of the walls looks bad. It would be much better if the second wallpaper was paintable or smooth plain white or sand.
Badly
Example #20
Exactly the same story. The right accent wall, the right size, but the absolute incompatibility with the main wallpaper. Moreover, the main ones are also quite interesting and not bad in themselves. They just shouldn't be together. We need one color here.
Badly
Example #21
Do I need to comment on this photo? It seems to me that you can see everything yourself: photo wallpapers running over the adjacent wall (what prevented you from trimming ???), a combination with striped wallpapers (monochrome ones are needed), and a closet that “allows you to enjoy” views of the night city.
Everything is very bad
By and large, to summarize, we can distinguish 3 main mistakes:
- lack of idea and meaning in combining wallpaper, action from the bulldozer;
- wrong choice of wall for accent;
- the use of wallpaper is not on the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe wall, the joints are not in the corners.
From here follow 5 simple rules, and if you take them into account, then I think that you can easily combine beautiful wallpapers in your room. Learn from the mistakes of others, not your own!
- Accent wallpapers are placed on the view wall, there should be good points of view of it, minimum distance from the point of view - 3-4 meters, and better more.
- Never use any ready-made companions if they are both with an active pattern.
- The best combination for photo wallpapers and others with an active dynamic pattern is plain wallpaper.
- Glue accent wallpaper on the entire wall, from corner to corner or other architectural elements (niche edges, ledges, etc.), then you don’t have to think about how to make a joint.
- Think about why you want to draw the eyes of those present to this wall, think over the idea.
Examples of the ideal use of combining wallpaper in decorating a room
The vast majority of examples are a combination of an active pattern with plain walls (plain wallpaper, wallpaper for painting, or just painted walls). If you are not mentally prepared for most of the plain walls in the room, then it’s better to think 10 more times about whether you need an accent wall in the interior at all.
A properly and tastefully decorated hall in an apartment or house will delight guests and hosts every time. After all, the first impression of your home depends on this room. Here you spend most of your time relaxing with your family, watching TV and meeting guests.
Create the most comfortable, bright, stylish and bright interior the hall is not an easy task, so if you do not have the time and financial capabilities to choose a special design, try using some original ideas which will be discussed in this article.
Peculiarities
It doesn’t matter what wallpaper you choose and how you will glue it, the main thing is that you need to do this very carefully. Mistakes are forgivable when wallpapering in the bedroom or corridor, but not in the "heart" of the apartment, where family evenings and meetings with friends take place. To avoid mistakes in the work, it is worth remembering some tips.
Wallpapering a room means that you will encounter various difficult areas in the form of radiators, switches, sockets. Corners are also not the most pleasant places to work with.
Choose wallpaper for sticking with a small pattern. If the canvases have a large pattern, or the distance between the patterns is decent, then the material consumption will be much higher, because it will go away when fitted.
Once you have laid out the wallpaper, measured the length, compared whether the pattern matches, be sure to number them to avoid mounting in the wrong sequence. Wallpapering should be started from the window, it does not matter - from the left or right side, as it suits you. In order to properly paste the wallpaper in the corner, it is necessary that the canvas go to the next wall by no more than 30 mm. If more, cut off the excess.
When it comes to sockets and switches, it will be necessary to unscrew them for convenience. When gluing the canvas on a socket or switch, make two small diagonal cuts in this place. Then carefully cut small plot wallpaper, leaving a small overlap. It can be neatly removed under the body of sockets or switches. Once you have dealt with this, you can safely fasten the fasteners.
Do not forget to turn off the electricity in the apartment for this time.
With batteries, things are a little more complicated. Although, if you use ingenuity and cunning, you can cope with wallpapering very easily, without errors. Starting from the top of the battery and to the bottom of the canvas, you need to make several cuts diagonally. This will allow you to manage the wallpaper the way you want. And the seams behind the battery will not be noticeable and will not spoil in any way appearance rooms.
If you have coped with pasting the hall, then you can safely move on to the next room or arrange furniture and enjoy the repair.
See below for a master class on proper wallpapering.
Which ones to choose?
Today, there are many options for wallpaper for the walls in the living room, and even the cheapest wallpaper samples can look beautiful and stylish. However, there are many points to consider when choosing this finishing material.
Vinyl, bamboo, metal, textile and others are considered durable and high-quality wallpapers. The main thing to remember is that there are no absolutely perfect roll sheets, they can all have their drawbacks. Thanks to their variety, you can choose those that will suit all your requirements:
- Paper wallpaper belongs to the category of light and cheap materials. They are easy enough to cover the room. But they do not hide the flaws of the surfaces and quickly lose their "freshness".
- non-woven wallpaper can also be bought at a reasonable price. They have good heat and sound insulation. Hides uneven walls.
- Currently very popular photo wallpaper. The choice is quite diverse, they look good and modern and, importantly, they are sold at an affordable price.
- Wallpaper for painting- very comfortable and practical option. They can freshen up your room. They can be covered with paint more than once.
- Vinyl wallpapers are durable. They are moisture resistant and embossed. However, not everyone can afford such canvases. They include expensive materials, which is reflected in the total cost of the wallpaper.
- Textile wallpaper is considered one of the most expensive. For their production are used natural materials. Due to this, they do not have joints on the walls.
To make it easier for you to understand which wallpaper samples are suitable specifically for your living room, There are a few easy rules to follow:
- it is necessary to take into account the parameters of the hall, such as the height of the ceiling, the width of the walls and even lighting, layout features, the style of the room, and your own character traits;
- when choosing wallpaper for the hall, it is worth considering both your wishes and the position of the room relative to the cardinal points. Warm and bright colors are suitable for northern and eastern rooms, if the room is located on the south and west side, then it is better to choose colors of cold shades;
- the main thing is to decide what style of interior you like, and then select the pattern and type of wallpaper, taking into account the idea, design and decoration.
Remember that the lighting and the location of the windows in the room can also affect how a particular color will be perceived in the interior.
When choosing a wallpaper do not forget about the style and color of the furniture. If you have furniture dark colors, experts advise pasting one or more walls with light canvases, and others with dark ones. Contrast is a great technique that will always be in fashion.
Colors and prints
The color scheme that will become the main one in the room is almost completely determined by what the wall decor will be like. It is worth remembering that it is better if the wallpaper colors are repeated in the interior, be it furniture, doors, floors, ceilings or decor items.
Warm is the dominance of red, yellow and orange tones, cold - the predominance of blue, cyan and lilac. Most often it is advised not to combine warm and cold colors. It looks inharmonious, it is unlikely that you will be comfortable in this room.
It is better to try to combine cold and warm tones with neutral ones. In extreme cases, the room should be decorated in only one color scheme.
Decorating the walls with two different types of wallpaper in rich colors is also not worth it. It is better to combine a bright and juicy color with a neutral one. The same situation with canvases on which there is a drawing. Here it is advised to combine wallpaper with a calm and concise design.
A small step away from the color you have in mind can change the overall picture for the worse. If you decide to decorate the room with wallpaper of two types, then, if possible, purchase them in one store so that you can immediately and accurately choose harmoniously combined textures and colors. The easiest way is to choose the wallpaper of the same type. Coloring at your discretion.
Wallpaper in light colors or with a vertical stripe will help expand a small room with a low ceiling. To avoid crowding and oppressive atmosphere in the room, you should not use wallpaper with large contrasting patterns. No need to worry that the room will look boring. Remember, the classic will never go out of style.
Large rooms can be decorated with both light and dark wallpaper. Light colors emphasize the free space, dark shades provide an opportunity to visually reduce the room to a more comfortable size.
The hall is the room where you relax, meet guests and spend most of your time. Therefore, you should not decorate the room with shades that contradict each other. For example, combine bright red and blue or pink and yellow. Combinations of beige and brown, red and white, gray and blue are well suited for the living room. These colors will create maximum comfort in the interior.
Remember that the choice of wallpaper should be approached as seriously as possible. It is worth considering both your preferences and the advice of experts:
- a small living room is best decorated in pastel colors. For example, mint, lavender or pink;
- for a cool living room, an apricot, strawberry, peach tone of wallpaper is well suited. These colors will help create a cozy and warm atmosphere.
Just remember that warm colors can visually reduce the space.
- if the living room is different high temperature, then aquamarine, pale blue, mint or lilac color of the canvases will be appropriate here;
- south, east, southwest and southeast rooms look good in classic shades gray, blue and blue;
- mother-of-pearl, silver, gold colors look expensive and stylish;
- green, burgundy, cherry colors will look good in the hall. They will give a special atmosphere, add brightness.
Prints, printing on wallpaper will help to decorate the living room, make it special. Now you can print on any surface, including wallpaper. And there are so many options that you don’t have to invent it yourself. Today, the most popular wallpaper designs are animal, floral and newspaper prints. However, it is better to decorate only one wall with a bright floral print, otherwise it will merge into one large pattern and will not become the highlight of your room.
You can decorate your room the way you want. You can stick pictures in any style or posters with celebrities on the walls. Lately stickers and vinyl decals have become popular.
combination
The popularity of this method of pasting walls, as a combination, is becoming more and more popular:
- First, now it is fashionable.
- Secondly, you can cover one room with different types of wallpaper in case you do not decide on one color.
- Thirdly, you can divide the space into several zones.
Now many people connect the living room with the dining area. The zoning of the room is very important here. By combining different wallpapers, you can separate the kitchen from the living room or the living room from the bedroom if one room is used both as a bedroom and as a place for meeting guests.
The living room of the house or the hall is the center of the dwelling from the point of view of outsiders. Perhaps the favorite place in the house is the bedroom, cozy balcony, office, but the first thing guests see is the hall. To equip it correctly, tastefully and in such a way as to create a good impression is really not easy.
Trends and novelties of wallpaper in the hall of 2017 are significantly different from last year and give unique opportunity decorate your home in a completely different way.
Fashionable wallpaper colors in 2017
Do not forget about the same things - light shades with a barely noticeable addition of delicate colors will give the room a discreet luxury, visually increase the volume. In such a hall, guests will feel cozy and warm, as in own house or a place from distant childhood memories.
IN bright interior there is no bright aggression of warm and alienation of cold tones, calmness reigns. Wallpaper for the hall in a bright environment can be picked up by an inexperienced person in interior affairs - white, silver, beige, pearl colors will do. You can take a chance and take the wallpaper in a soft gray shade - this will give the living room a fashionable asceticism now.
For lovers of original designs, a combination of black and white, inserts into the interiors of neutral shades have come into fashion. bright colors. Such combinations play in contrast, they can be found in the apartments of creative people; boredom, traditionalism or following a clear design is unacceptable.
Wallpaper of this color is a great opportunity to create your own interior, as in the case of a patchwork design method, which is especially relevant along with the fashion for geometry. Combined wallpaper in the hall may include a mixture plain wallpaper with patterned ones - it is more difficult to select and implement, but worth it.
Combinations of neutral pastel shades with bright ones are very relevant. It may seem that these two elements are completely unsuitable for each other and will only fit well in rooms for children, where any, the most ridiculous contrasts, are appropriate. However, it is worth looking at this wallpaper design in the hall, as you will see how good and fresh it looks.
Against the backdrop of last year's fashion for cool shades and the all-consuming modern with minimalism, your room will look truly unique.
wall decor trends this year
Last year's minimalism still does not let go of the wallpaper market. At the peak of fashion now, its echoes are abstract patterns that are invisible on the wallpaper until you come close, light geometric patterns. Designers are trying to create the feeling that there is no wallpaper at all - the material merges so organically with the wall and furnishings.
Wallpaper of this type can be carefully combined - up to a reasonable border of three colors, of course, which will give the walls a special charm and your personal idea, which is incredibly important for uniqueness. The desire for maximum naturalness will still show itself in the trends of 2017.
The main innovation now is the return of wallpapers that mimic natural or Construction Materials. Fashion, as expected, made a hook with a slight tilt back and modern wallpaper for the hall became very similar to its counterparts ten years ago.
Only the quality of the print has changed - now only detailed concepts are accepted, whereas in the past there was enough rough similarity, and materials have been modernized.
This is how walls appeared in the apartments of interior gourmets, copying with amazing accuracy brickwork, bamboo, wood and stone different varieties, even fabrics with a variety of textures.
The wallpapers described above are often confused with photo wallpapers, but in vain. It's a completely different type wall decor which leaves you maximum freedom of choice on how to decorate your home.
Modern technology for the manufacture of photo wallpaper allows you to apply any pattern or photograph based on any whim. All that is required from you at the studio for the production of such wallpapers is a widescreen image of what you want. And then it's up to the ultra-modern technology of high-quality printing on large volumes.
No concept? So things will go even faster, the studios have an impressive portfolio, an album with which agents usually offer. Tell a consultant and you will immediately receive samples, choose your dream design from thousands of photo wallpapers in the hall. Remember that any ideas are accepted and the concept does not have to be a photograph.
How to make a choice?
Start from your interior, it will be much easier. What is the point of gluing beautiful wallpaper in the hall when nothing in this hall suits them?
Carefully consider your decision, before deciding on the style of things and furniture already in the environment. If you have arranged the room in cooperation with the designer, then it will not be superfluous to discuss with him the replacement of the wall covering, if possible. be guided common sense, taste and color matching table, if necessary - you can re-paste the wallpaper, but it's difficult.
Another thing is if you are thinking over the design of the living room from scratch. In this case, start with them. There is useful design rule– each room starts with three paths: floor, ceiling and walls. Take advantage of the fact that you do not need to adjust the purchase to the items you already have and somehow limit yourself in your choice.
The main thing is to follow a certain sequence of objects that are nearby, and this is not at all difficult. A white vase and a black oak table will look much better together than a black vase with the same table - this is the rule according to which solid-colored objects in a well-designed interior should not be side by side (there are exceptions, but they are rare).
Another example - wallpaper with ornaments and laconic flooring look more harmonious than patterned wallpaper with carpets - this is a rule that prohibits piling up patterns, no matter how fashionable and designer they may be.
There is another pitfall that beginners may not pay attention to - the types of wallpaper materials. If the division of the wall covering into single-layer (thin wallpaper, fade in the sun, do not hide the unevenness of the wall and much cheaper than others) and two-layer (a better analogue, with which partial masking of problems in the primer is possible), then its other classifications may surprise at first.
There are practical vinyl, environmentally friendly and high-quality textile, durable non-woven types of coating, and most people who are faced with creating an interior in their home for the first time are perplexed about how to paste wallpaper in the hall, especially if they are so difficult.
Despite the desire to do everything yourself, it is better to think twice. Only you know if you can handle the preparation of the wall, the choice of quality glue and the process itself, which is not only difficult, but dangerous for people with allergies or simply sensitive to smells.
The risk of damaging expensive wallpapers just because you failed to stick them is great - it is better to contact professional repair services.
Don't be afraid to experiment - 2017 welcomes bold decisions, out-of-the-ordinary designs and similar attempts to make your home truly unique. Do your best - think over the process and its result, and enjoy the updated interior in your room.
Photo wallpaper in the hall
When choosing wallpaper for the living room, you must first consider what kind of room you plan to decorate. Lighting conditions, the size and shape of the room play a decisive role, because the color, saturation of tone and the pattern of the wall covering can significantly change the perception of the interior.
Living room: types of wallpaper
The history of this type of decoration began in China, around the third millennium BC - they began to stick rice paper on the walls. Modern wallpaper for the living room can be either traditional, based on paper, or washable, based on other materials. According to the base material, they are divided into:
- Paper;
- Vinyl;
- Acrylic;
- Fiberglass;
- Metallized;
- liquid;
- Natural (textile, bamboo, leather and others).
Each type of wallpaper has its own advantages and disadvantages. Let's consider them in more detail.
Paper
Classic wallpapers for the living room are made on a paper basis. They are not moisture resistant - but in the living room this is usually not required. Caring for such a coating is simple - from time to time they need to be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner. A variety of colors and patterns allows you to choose the right design for any interior, whether classic or modern style. Paper can have a different texture, color, be smooth, structural or embossed.
Vinyl
With the help of polymer fibers are created interesting designs. Non-woven vinyl coatings have a leveling effect and work as an additional heat and sound insulating layer. The wallpaper design for the living room with silk screen printing is suitable for classic styles. The silk-threaded vinyl used for the top layer allows for impressive modern wallpaper designs for living rooms.
Acrylic
Toboi have a paper base, on which point method polymer is applied. This gives them a certain advantage over vinyl, as it facilitates air exchange. However, they are less resistant to water and their service life is much shorter. The paper base is not able to mask the defects of the wall, and the design possibilities are very limited, so this type of coating is not widely used.
Fiberglass
Wallpaper for walls in the living room made of fiberglass has its advantages: they are very durable and strong, they “breathe” well, they can be washed. However, the disadvantages are also obvious: there is only one finishing option - painting, and it can be repainted a limited number of times, since the paint gradually hides the relief, worsening the decorative properties. The high cost and complexity of dismantling also do not contribute to the popularity of this coating.
Able to favorably emphasize the design in the style of hi-tech or techno. Some options are suitable classic styles. The basis is interlining, on which aluminum foil is applied in a thin layer on top. An embossing or drawing is applied to the foil, usually under the metal: gold, silver, platinum, bronze. The foil has heat-insulating properties, is resistant to moisture, does not fade, does not wear out for a long time.
This finishing material includes cellulose as a base, silk fibers, dyes, decorative components (mica, mother-of-pearl, various minerals in crumbs, sparkles, gold and silver threads), as well as substances that protect against mold, decay and binders. In appearance, they resemble plaster, are supplied dry and are diluted with water before use.
natural
Wallpaper can be made of fabric, bamboo or jute fibers, leather plates. Natural fiber coatings applied to interlining are also called natural. Real dry plants can be woven into these coverings. The original interior design is not the only advantage of this coating. Natural wallpapers have heat-insulating properties, do not fade, and are environmentally friendly.
Wallpaper color for the living room
Using the color of wall coverings and its saturation, you can create various interior effects - for example, highlight functional areas, “raise” low ceilings, “push apart” walls, “lighten up” a room, or, on the contrary, create an intimate atmosphere. In interior design, this technique is widely used.
They will give it splendor, add illumination, especially in cases where the windows face the north side. Gradual, gradient darkening from top to bottom will create the illusion of high ceilings. The traditional design of living rooms is the decoration of the lower part of the walls, which gets dirty faster, in dark, and the upper part in light tones.
more often used to highlight one or another part of the wall - for example, in the fireplace area. The color scheme is selected in accordance with the chosen style of the room and the personal tastes of the customer, while there are several general rules, which must be followed to create a comfortable interior:
- Too bright and “acidic” tones should be avoided, especially in large areas;
- In rooms with a lack natural light you should not paste over the walls with wallpaper of dark, saturated colors;
- In small living rooms, it is better to use one tone for the walls, and it should be light.
Combining wallpaper in the living room
The room reserved for the living room may have irregular shape, or ceilings that are too low. Very a large room- also not always good: in it a person will not feel too comfortable. These and some other shortcomings can be corrected with a combination of wall coverings. different colors, patterns and textures.
Geometry
Zoning
