Wallpapers to make your interior livelier

Textured

If you want to give your walls an illusionary effect, opt for textured wallpapers. This type of wallpaper is gaining popularity for its three-dimensional depth — as it virtually emerges out as a 3D shape. Both fabric and wallpaper can be combined to create a beautifully textured wall surface.

Geometric

Geometric shapes and designs are very eye-catching, and because of that, expressive geometric prints are trending currently. How much we had loved to fiddle with different geometric shapes during our childhood! And now, we have a creative way to express our playful nature on a real wall using diversely structured and simplified geometric designs.      

Line art designs

Wall art is a popular concept — so is the line art drawings. Nowadays, line art designs and abstract Picasso-style portraits are gaining tremendous popularity as they not only add an aesthetic touch to our home décor, but also look very beautiful and self-expressive on the wall. Both printable and online purchasable line art drawings and portraits are available on various websites.

Maximalist wallpapers

If you are feeling bold and want to add traces of drama to your interior, then select maximalist wallpapers. This type of wallpaper was previously considered a little extravagant; however, maximalist wallpapers are making a very bold and strong comeback. Therefore, go ahead and showcase your braveness utilising brightly coloured and intricately patterned maximalist wallpapers.

Wall mural

One cannot help but be mesmerised while looking at a mural. And wall murals are simply refreshing to look at. Unlike wallpapers, wall murals can be altered and designed to fit one's taste and these are very easy to remove. Whether that be forest, mountains or a world map, make your home more vibrant by choosing your preferred wall mural.

Trompe-l'œil

Do you love looking at optical illusions? If yes, then Trompe-l'œil is the perfect match for you as it literally translates into 'trick of the eye.' Trompe-l'œil wall coverings add a three-dimensional effect to a wall by creating the illusion of a larger space, nonetheless, such wall coverings look very much realistic while looking up-close.

It is undoubtedly an individual choice whether to go for the traditional wall paint or relatively hassle-free wallpapers. But be sure to know that fine quality wallpapers can last more than a decade. Hence, be mindful of your investment.
