Creating comfort in your home only at first glance seems like an easy task. In fact, a soft carpet on the floor in the living room, muted nightlights in the bedroom, a bright and spacious nursery - this is not always a guarantee of comfort. But you really want to bring individuality and diversity to the interior, to make the house unusual and multifaceted. And today there is the simplest way out for this: instead of banal wallpapers, you can use a full-fledged image (photo wallpaper or photo panel).

But when choosing such a solution, many are faced not only with a huge variety of manufacturers, materials and images, but also with different types such a product. And, first of all, it is a choice between photo wallpapers and photo panels. So, let's try to figure out: what is the difference between these popular products and is there any at all.

Wallpaper. History and modernity.

Invented by the Frenchman Jules Cheret back in 1866 in Paris, photo wallpapers appeared on the construction markets of our country no more than half a century ago. The choice was small, boring and monotonous landscapes were poorly in demand. The preference of the bulk of the population was given to the classics, rather than futuristic novelties. At the end of the last century, there was an explosion in popularity paper photo wallpaper, but today technology has advanced so much that modern photo wallpaper is a completely new product. The preferences of the buyer have also changed dramatically: more and more people are trying to diversify the everyday life of gray concrete walls with colorful images that are exciting, soothing, or simply remind you of something very pleasant. With the help of photo wallpapers, you can enjoy the tropical spring, contemplate the Tibetan mountains or find yourself on the pavement in Prague, lit only by the light of ancient lanterns. Modern printing capabilities will allow you to optimally clearly transfer the famous masterpieces of classics and creations of abstract art to the walls. Moreover, today it is possible to order an individual project according to any image, even your own photo or drawing, which allows you to get an absolutely unique interior design.

Photopanel. Myths and reality.

You can often find the opinion that a photopanel differs from a photowall-paper in two ways. key points: Print the image on one sheet and use thicker paper. But this opinion is in fact nothing more than a marketing ploy of poster sellers. A photo panel in its most classical definition is a photo image made in the form of a panel (that is, occupying a certain permanent place on the wall). That is, in fact, the only difference between a photo panel and a photo wallpaper is that the photo panel is glued to part of the wall, and the photo wallpaper completely fills it. But even this is not entirely true today. The struggle of manufacturers with the negative perception of photo wallpaper (remember only the ubiquitous birch trees on thin paper from the 90s) has led to an absolute confusion of these two concepts.

Today, in fact, photo wallpapers and photo panels are the names of the same product. First of all, thanks to the ability to print an image of any size: on a part of the wall, on the entire wall, or even on the whole room. Therefore, remember: if you meet the name “photo wallpaper”, this does not mean that it will be an image on the entire wall, just as if you see the name “photo panel”, this does not mean that a framed picture will come to you. Everything is decided by the wishes of the client: when ordering individual photo panels or photo wallpapers, as a rule, you can choose the size of the image yourself. This, of course, is a huge advantage of modern technologies: there is no need to painfully search for something suitable, but you can simply choose the right picture and order a print in the right size.

But let's still deal with the main "myths" about photo panels: printing on a single canvas and thick paper. Among the advantages of this option for interior decoration, convenience in gluing and the absence of joints are often mentioned. But, let's face it, sticking one canvas on the wall (for example, 4 by 3 meters in size) is far from an easy task. And, given the cost of this canvas and the fact that no manufacturer will be responsible for how you glued his product, this no longer looks like such an advantage. Moreover, the main plus - the absence of joints - with modern technologies can be obtained in much simpler and more affordable ways. With regard to thicker paper, which many also consider to be an advantage, only one thing can be said: thicker paper is only better than thinner paper. Technology does not stand still and paper wallpaper- it is basically the last century.

Modern photo wallpapers and photo panels are made on non-woven fabric with a textured vinyl coating. Such images are glued to the wall not overlapping, but end-to-end, and combining the picture with the proper level of production quality will be ideal. This allows, firstly, not to suffer with a huge expensive “single” canvas, secondly, to get an image on which no seams will be visible, and thirdly, it will be done on the very modern material. That is, such an image will be bright, juicy, saturated, will not fade, fade or wear out over time, and it can be safely wiped with a damp cloth.

And in conclusion, let’s clarify: our company produces photo panels (photo wallpapers) on premium quality non-woven fabric with a structural vinyl coating with a canvas width of 1 meter, and high-quality Japanese ink is used for printing. You can order printing of any image and any size from us. And if you did not find anything suitable in our catalog, then take the opportunity

Why are panels so good?

The first thing that attracts many is the ease of gluing. Panel on the wall wallpaper can be created in a matter of hours, and the technology is similar. This will turn into a real castle or Pirates' ship. As for adult rooms, with the help of such a move it is quite possible to create the necessary visual effect.

For this you need:

1. Choose a picture of the appropriate size and format.
2. Level it on the table or on the floor so that you can see the whole picture.
3. Cut into the required number of parts, preferably 3-5.
4. Attach carefully to the wall.

You can create an interesting effect using a landscape image, such as a view of the sea, mountains. To do this, from the third step, you need to act a little differently, namely:

• It is necessary to cut not in one strip, but to clean a section of about 15-20 cm.
• So you need to do with three canvases. This must be done in order to create the effect of a view from the window.
• Canvases are glued to the wall at the same height with an equal distance.

Panels for different rooms

Depending on the room in which wallpaper-panels are selected, it is worth considering various factors.

Children's

This room can be turned into a real fairy tale with the help of such a decorative technique. But here you need to act carefully, because too bright decor will have an exciting effect on the child, which means it will be difficult for him to fall asleep and do his homework.

For girls, it is worth choosing images with fairy princesses, castles, queens. Boys are closer to the theme of cars, knights, various equipment.

Bedroom

It all depends on the embodied style. Wallpaper-panels with flowers are universal options; their graphic images in large format look especially attractive. For example, a rose on the entire wall or huge daisies.

Oriental and Egyptian motifs, any abstraction are allowed here. But, again, do not forget that this is a bedroom, and too bright colors do not in the best way affect falling asleep and the quality of sleep, because they excite the nervous system.

Living room, hallway
