In a small bathroom without windows, install a mirrored wall above the vanity to reflect a fresh light wallcovering that sets you sailing. It is the perfect backdrop to personalize with fabulous accessories.
For centuries, designers and homeowners alike have dressed rooms with wallcoverings, discovering and reimagining paper and its versatility. Traditional patterns and styles have remained consistently popular and trustworthy. Historical damask, toile, stripe, plaid, floral, and trellis patterns, as well as banana leaf, hexagon, zebra, and other animal prints all exemplify pattern variety that fuel the furnace for creativity. And now, the current wallpaper craze is giving us a multitude of options for any number of spaces, reflecting a plethora of personalities.
Specifically, using wallpaper in a small and intimate space is the single most dramatic statement you can make. It can strengthen the architectural mood of the room and turn what might be an anonymous area into one with a distinct style. An original and eye-catching design can be realized and implemented where a background of pattern, texture, and color give visual appeal.
A powder room is the perfect place for the application of large bold prints. Somehow the qualities of light and shade are heightened by a wall pattern that almost miraculously intensifies the volume of the space. The room immediately seems larger because you now have a point of reference. Pack a decorative punch with a dramatic wallpaper or risky print that is too expensive or sassy to use in your entrance hall — here is the place to be brave!
When selecting wallpapers in a bathroom that adjoins a bedroom suite, use colors and designs that significantly impact the overall ambiance of the area. Small patterns used in conjunction with larger patterns can be great complements. Perhaps paper the ceiling or paint it a glossy shade from the paper. And do remember that careful placement of mirrors can be a great way to reflect light, pattern, and architectural detail.
Because wallpaper completely envelops your room, it is complicated, unifying, and fresh at the same time. It is the perfect background for paintings and other artwork, a great advantage when your walls are in a tricky condition, and it can last for decades. Make a selection that will reflect you, lift your heart to sing, and bring you joy — create the perfect intimate escape.
