There are countless interior design options when it comes to wallpapering. You can go for a bold and colourful atmosphere with colourful rainbow wallpaper or a minimalistic and elegant vibe with beige colour wallpaper or peach colour wallpaper, perhaps. If you are planning for an interior make-over including a beautiful wallpaper design, you probably might have an idea of a style you would like to go with. But often the question might be - how many walls should I wallpaper, or should I wallpaper the whole room? Therefore, in this blog post, we would like to go through some tips and projects for inspiration to see when it might be best to create a wallpaper feature wall or wallpaper all walls.
When To Wallpaper All Walls
If you are considering wallpapering all walls in a room, take into mind that wallpaper can make a big statement and have a presence. A very bold and bright peel and stick wallpaper pattern used on all walls can overpower the overall interior design. Therefore, choosing a lighter and more minimalistic wallpaper to cover all walls can give a beautiful eye-catching design that works more as a backdrop, allowing to combine it with patterned and colourful furniture and accessories without making it overwhelming and rather tasteful.
However, choosing the right wallpaper can bring the room to life and give it a fresh, chic breath of air. Above we can see the beautiful nursery design with bright wall paper colours, created by Jeru. They have chosen our Coral Terrazzo Design Wall Mural to add some pop of colour to the interior that blends perfectly with other interior elements, colours, materials and patterns. In some cases wallpapering all walls as well as the ceiling can give a gorgeous wow factor monotone backdrop in the interior for the ones who love bold and daring colourful wall designs. If you are loving the look of bright coloured wallpaper, visit our Colourful Wallpaper collection to find more fun and bold designs like this one.
Sometimes wallpapering not all walls but two or three can be a great option as well, if one of the walls has another wall cowering or, for example, panelling. Above we can see a beautiful kids room design created by Caitlin. She has chosen our Giraffe Pattern Removable Wallpaper to cover two of the walls and give the room a colourful and fun atmosphere but chosen neutral colours wallpaper.
When To Wallpaper One Wall
Wallpapering one wall can create a beautiful statement feature wall in the interior. It is a great option when you are looking to add a bolder pattern in the room and a focal point. When choosing the feature wall, it is recommended to go with the wall that includes the most eye-catching features and is the wall you would look at first when entering. Elisha has created a bold and very chic cloakroom design by creating an feature wall with our Bold Leopard Design Removable Wallpaper as seen in the photo above.
As in the past years and especially this year wallpapering ceiling has become more in style, then creating an feature wall on the fifth wall - the ceiling, can give a dazzling design element. There are wallpaper patterns that are less daring that can look gorgeous on all four walls and the ceiling, however, if prefering to go with a bolder design and colour combination, then wallpapering only the ceiling by combining with painted walls can give a very memorable look. Above we can see a gorgeous example of wallpapered ceiling done by the talented team Hammer + Harmony who have covered the ceiling with our London Metro Lines Removable Wallpaper in black and off white to dazzle the office guests from when they enter the building.
