The process of combining wallpaper is currently considered fashionable reception. With its help, you can put into practice artistic original ideas, to focus on the visual correction of minor problems, an expressive art object, the correction of problems that arose in the process of decorative finishing.
The main purpose of the combination
The use of several wallpaper options within the same room at once significantly increases the duration of the repair, complicates it.
At the same time, the positive aspects of such a combination cannot be ignored.
Designers identify many factors that confirm the originality of such an idea, its significance and relevance:
- zoning of the premises;
- emphasizing the features of the room;
- hiding all the flaws of the room;
- visual expansion of the room;
- accent wall;
- creating a focal point;
- adaptation of the bedroom to the individual needs of its owner.
Correction options
- The room has a low ceiling. This problem is typical for a room that has a fairly significant area. To eliminate this problem, the ceiling is decorated in light colors, the walls are made dark, getting a visual illusion of high ceilings inside the room.
- Small area. Horizontal stripes of wallpaper, as well as light walls, can visually expand the space inside the room. When pasting one wall with wallpaper that has a large pattern, you can create the effect of a spacious room. Among the decoration options, one can note the use of photo wallpapers.
- The presence of too elongated room. The room will be as comfortable as possible, in it you can fully relax by pasting the narrow walls with dark or rich wallpaper, and pasting the wide walls with light wallpaper.
Wallpaper combination rules
If desired, you can make a training place, using a combination of wallpaper, you can perform effective zoning of the room. By mixing texture and pattern, you can highlight different functional purpose destination area. After delimiting separate zones inside the room, it is important to prevent separation into several separate parts, you need to maintain harmony in the room, make a smooth transition from one zone to another.
1. Do you want to hide flaws, show the advantages of your room?
There is a room has its own specific features, which cause problems for the owners, for example, the irrational location of the heating risers, the presence of numerous niches and protrusions, with the help of them it is impossible to hide, from the outside they will seem like defects. In the case of combining wallpaper of various patterns and colors, such a problem can be easily solved by diverting attention from problem areas.
2. Do you dream of changing proportions and sizes?
For those who have square and large rooms, there is no problem in the layout of the room, since this version of the room is similar to the "golden section". Unfortunately, in reality, such bedrooms and hallways do not exist, they are retracted or small, you have to combine wallpapers of various wallpapers and patterns, thereby visually adjusting the room, leading it into a convenient and comfortable “nest”.
You do not like the monotonous interior?
Do you want to make your room bright, individual, unique? In this case, he suggests making accents on one wall of the room, using wallpaper with a catchy pattern to decorate it. For example, the central part of your wall will be highlighted with wallpaper with large geometric or floral prints, you can use a different type of wallpaper on the sides, focusing all attention on the center of the room, for example. With the right selection of material for the walls, you will get a stunning effect.
The design of such a room as a bedroom makes it possible to show all the preferences of its owner. This room is intimate, it is not customary to receive guests.
The main task of the bedroom is a comfortable and complete rest after a hard day's work. To choose a color scheme and style, you can use the advice of professional designers to get a truly cozy and comfortable room.
As soon as it became necessary to combine several types of wallpaper in the bedroom, this is a signal that its owner is an extraordinary and creative person.
Such people do not like everyday life, they do not accept patterns, they always want to be aware of fashion trends, I have a wonderful artistic imagination. If you wish, you can always select a specific object inside the room, for example, a dressing table, a bed, by choosing special wallpapers for this.
The combination of wallpaper with different patterns
Often people are afraid to combine Various types wallpaper, being unsure of the positive result of their actions. How to choose the right patterns, colors, textures, understand the variety of wallpapers that can be seen on the modern construction market? Don't want to learn from your mistakes? In this case, check out some simple rules offered by professional designers so that after combining several wallpaper options, learn the desired positive result.
Odd numbers are quite often used in modern design. The easiest way in the case of combining several wallpaper options in the bedroom is to choose three wallpaper models:
- First wallpaper option should be a source of your joy and complete delight. Try to buy such wallpapers, from the look of which you experience real delight, pleasure, that you are not able to get bored with time. It is advisable to opt for wallpapers with a large pattern, or choose colorful photo wallpapers.
- Second type of wallpaper should have a slight sourness, similarity in 1-2 colors with the first type of wallpaper.
- Third a piece of wallpaper will be the base option, neutral (gray, white, beige) colors are suitable for it. You can use a slight neutral plain wallpaper, for example, with a relief texture.
Wallpaper selection features
If you went to the store for new wallpapers, try to pay attention to some features:
- The degree of color intensity. Wallpaper can have color repeating shades, it is important that they are of the same intensity. If desired, you can choose a plain wallpaper, or with a bright and contrasting pattern. You do not like the variegation of bright and contrasting wallpapers? In this case, combine the wallpaper, diluting it with textured and plain wallpaper so that you can “fix your eyes” on light, unobtrusive wallpaper fragments.
- Graphic arts. When choosing, or combining white with other colors, you will correctly combine the space, make it cozy, comfortable for living.
- White color counts perfect color, thanks to which various textures and patterns are combined with each other. For bedrooms, you can use a combination of three at once different types wallpaper, or use two wallpaper options and modern home textiles.
IN Lately many manufacturers home textile combine their work with wallpaper manufacturers, creating single original combinations for the hallway, bedroom. Among the negative characteristics of such collections, we note their high cost.
There are many ways to create a custom interior or zoning a room. Combining wallpaper is one of them, the least expensive in terms of resources and time. This technique is used by those who want to save money, level out the existing planning flaws: unprofitable ledges or niches, too low ceilings, narrow space. The main thing when repairing is to take into account all the features of the room.
The purpose of the combination should be the desire not just to dispel boredom. It is designed to focus attention on some point or zone. The aimless imposition of "patches" on the walls will make the interior clumsy, only emphasize the lack of taste of the owner.
When accenting one of the walls with wallpaper, you must choose the “correct” one. Usually this is the wall that attracts the eye when entering the room. It can also be located in the background of one of the functional areas or behind a furniture group: a dining room, a desk, upholstered furniture, which, thanks to a suitable background, will only benefit.
The principle of choosing a wall was absolutely unmistakable in Soviet times. The main attraction - the Uzbek carpet - always hung where it was needed, it was visible from any vantage point.
The boundaries of the accent wall are also determined in advance. And this is necessarily the whole wall, and not some part of it behind the sofa (what happens if the sofa suddenly has to be moved?). These are not a few walls, sometimes decorated with companions, but giving the impression that the room was pasted over with the remnants of a previous renovation.
Consideration should be given to the following simple rules:
- Accent wallpaper is glued to the view wall. The desired minimum distance to it is 3-4 m. The "Khrushchev" kitchen, for example, is not suitable for such a design.
- Combining two types of wallpaper with an active pattern is contraindicated, even if they are companions.
- Photo wallpapers or any other with a dynamic print are best combined with plain ones.
- In order not to puzzle over the design of the joints, accent wallpapers take up space from one corner to another or to a niche or ledge.
- The basis for creating any combination should be a certain idea, it is necessary to rive the eyes of those present on something specific.
Errors when combining
All the mistakes of designers can be reduced to the following main ones:
- Lack of purpose when combined, action on a whim.
- The choice of the "wrong" wall.
- Placement of wallpaper in pieces, with borders not in the corners. An exception is inserts with trim joints with moldings or when the wall is divided into two parts horizontally.
- The layout of the duet without taking into account the features of the room.
In order not to spoil the picture of a fresh repair, it is impossible
- place large furniture near the wall with large patterns, the optimal background in this case is plain;
- decorate a small room with dark colors, light shades are more harmonious, preferably no more than three;
- decorate a large wall in a narrow room with patterns, they will further narrow the space;
- wallpaper with horizontal stripes low ceilings, the ceiling will press even harder;
- vertical stripes will make narrow room with high ceilings even more awkward.
How to combine wallpaper by color?
The fact that colors affect not only mood, but also health, scientists have proven. For a comfortable life, design colors are chosen for a reason. They are combined according to certain rules. Not all shades look harmoniously next to each other. Sometimes even unexpected combinations fascinate, in other cases you want to look away as soon as possible. Combinations for the interior are selected according to the same principle by which a bouquet or toilet items are collected.
Taking into account furniture, decor, there are usually three to four to seven colors in the room. There are not many of them, they only serve for variety, make accents. The main two are the colors of the wallpaper, floor, furniture elements. When choosing a color, first of all pay attention to the size of the room.
The color scheme of the walls determines the overall decor of the entire room. Some color elements from the wallpaper pair are necessarily duplicated in the interior: they are repeated in furniture upholstery, echo with doors or floor and ceiling coverings.
Shades of the same color
The combination of wallpapers of the same color in one room is considered classic. Walls can be patterned, regular, chaotic, barely expressed. For a small room, two types of wallpaper with the same pattern, slightly different in shade - the most acceptable combination.
Monochromatic combinations can differ only in saturation. More juicy shades highlight the priority zone.
Any room will look organic if the decoration of the same color is combined there, but with a different texture. Textured elements look much more spectacular if they are made in the same color. Shiny surfaces look unusual, combined with matte ones. Besides, small rooms where there are shiny walls, they will visually appear more spacious.
Contrasting colors
The correct combination in the interior of several bright canvases that you like is a delicate matter. Those who have no experience in this matter are on a slippery slope. It is also worth considering the price of various coatings. The look of expensive silk-screen printing can be quickly spoiled by placing budget paper nearby.
The contrast method is most often used to decorate living rooms or bedrooms. One of the colors should be active, and the second neutral.
Modern design ideas based on style, the rejection of the ordinary. Special techniques consist in combining warm and cold colors, using catchy colors. Possible options are:
- simple, when harmonious, unidirectional color schemes are combined;
- moderate, when the tones of the wallpaper do not match with each other, but have something in common with space;
- difficult if the interior is decorated with more than three colors of different saturation.
Neighboring shades of the color wheel
In order to maintain the integrity of the interior, not to miss the choice of finish colors, they use a special cheat sheet called the color wheel. With it, you can pick up similar colors by simply taking 2-3 or 5 located nearby.
Advanced designers usually use not 2, but 3-4 shades, which are diluted with universal black, white or gray. Since they are absent in nature, they are not shown in the diagram. In the design of the premises, they act not only as additional, but also as the main ones.
Color combination (table)
Work on your own choice suitable colors Interesting. But those who have no experience tend to err. There are tables that greatly simplify the process. The main thing is to know how to use them.
This or a similar scheme is used, remembering that the first color must be used as the main one. The two following it can act as additional ones, those that follow are accents.
There are tables where contrasting combinations are presented or compiled according to a complementary principle. From the proposed options, you just need to choose the combination that you like the most.
How to make a transition when combining
To decorate or not to decorate joints when gluing depends on the thickness of the finish, the chosen style. There are several methods for designing a transition: pasting borders with borders, moldings, wooden slats, thin planks, stucco molding, a ceiling plinth is played up.
No transition
The classic joint is usually not decorated with anything. In order for the edges of assorted wallpapers to match perfectly, they are not initially smeared with glue, overlapping each other. Then, at the junction, they are carried out with a sharp knife (the line can be even or wavy). Waste is discarded, and the edges of the canvases are smeared with glue, attached to the wall.
wallpaper border
Paper framing is not a problem. It can be matched to the wallpaper at the place of purchase from the catalog or cut out fragments from the wallpaper strip itself. The advantage of this finish is low cost, ease of sticking and removal. The disadvantage is susceptibility to ultraviolet radiation, mechanical damage.
You can choose vinyl and acrylic edging, they are approximately close in quality. Textile is more dense and durable due to the two-layer structure consisting of paper and fabric.
You should not rely on the quality of the self-adhesive edging, it tends to spontaneously fall off after a while. It is advisable to glue it, additionally smearing it with glue initially.
moldings
Looks pretty original decorative elements framed by moldings. Such inserts were mostly used in classical interiors. Previously, such ideas were embodied only by representatives of the upper class, since the fabrics used were very expensive. Now such panels are possible in the style of Provence, country. Modern Art Nouveau follows the same path, slightly modifying the frame. Its role is played by a border cut from a canvas of the same collection.
Silk-screen printing, embossed coatings, and other similar options are used as inserts. Moldings will also help, if it is necessary to combine wallpapers of different thicknesses, to arrange a transition to another type of finish, an architectural element.
Combination methods
Combination is always creativity, creativity. Some of his techniques are very bold, especially if the stylistic decision involves the use of bright contrasts, unconventional combinations. Therefore, you need to choose the decor carefully. When buying materials, you need to consider the following key factors:
- degree of illumination;
- room size;
- conceived style;
- shades and textures should not "swear" among themselves.
The choice of texture is usually given more easily than determining the correct color scheme. If all types of finishes in the apartment can be combined into one harmonious whole, a satisfactory result is obtained:
- the room seems to add size;
- irregular shapes, uneven walls are hidden;
- the interior is filled with light;
- separate zones appear;
- the winning features of the layout and style are emphasized.
Combine horizontally
The method is most successful if you paste over the room with wallpaper of various types, for example, the upper part is paper, and the lower part is embossed vinyl or non-woven. The walls will receive additional protection, it will be easier and cheaper to carry out partial repairs.
Horizontal stripes can be distributed over the entire height, alternating in color, pattern. If you decide to stick only two types of wallpaper, then the parts should be in a ratio of 2: 1.
The separation height can be changed, focusing on the levels of furniture, window sill, taking into account the layout, the size of the room.
Joints oriented horizontally are much more difficult to mask, so the use of moldings, all kinds of borders, and baguettes is appropriate here. Traditionally, the border is made at a height of no more than a meter, but only if the height of the walls is small. With non-standard high ceilings, the joint is located at a height of 1.5-2 m. This distance is oriented relative to the floor, not the ceiling, otherwise the slightest unevenness will be striking.
Vertical Combination
The essence of the method is to vertically connect wallpapers of various tones and textures. The method allows you to visually raise the level of the ceiling. The room will seem the higher, the thinner the fragments of the picture will be. Combine stripes optionally of the same size. Strips of different widths alternate in a certain sequence.
If the combined fragments are not the same in texture, moldings or borders will be required to decorate the borders.
Combinations of coatings of the same color, but of different intensities, alternation of dynamic shades with calm ones, wallpaper with patterns and smoothly colored are popular. Flowers with stripes look good in retro style.
Monochromatic and monochromatic
A technique ideal for highlighting several functional areas of space in a close color scheme. Companions from the same manufacturer will be a win-win. Not too colorful shades, embossed patterns, silk-screen printing look noble.
For a harmonious design, when using plain wallpaper, choose canvases with a neutral and more active color, materials of different textures. A maneuver with a brighter wall will draw attention away from the bumps on the wall with a neutral color. In the bedroom, for example, deeper, darker shades are used in the sleeping area. The play of shadows helps to calm down and relax.
accent wall
In order for the accent on the wall not only to attract the eye, but also to improve the design, it is necessary to follow some rules:
- ideally, the presence of only one such wall, rarely - two, never - three, this introduces dissonance;
- only part of the wall or such architectural elements as arches, niches can become accent;
- accent colors are not necessarily bright, soft combinations are acceptable;
- You can “move” the accented wall using warm and cold shades.
It must be remembered: the reception dictates the mood of the entire interior, therefore it can either completely ruin it or balance it.
In a modern interior, an accent wall usually sets the focal point. It is decorated with bright plain canvases or wallpaper with large ornaments, digital printing. The color scheme of the remaining surfaces is as neutral as possible. This approach is applicable to any room. And due to the fact that expensive materials are used only on one of the walls, significant savings are achieved.
pattern or ornament and plain
Collections often represent a popular combination option - plain wallpaper with the same ones, where a pattern or ornament is applied to the base.
If the selection of companions is carried out independently, you must be extremely careful, try to dock future companions in good light. It is also important not to deviate from the rule:
- large drawing, catchy color are good only in a spacious bright room;
- in a pair where the first part is an ornament, the second should be textural.
pattern and pattern
Different patterns look quite harmonious in the same room. But they must have something unifying: motives, some elements, color.
The technique is often used in horizontal combinations, when the lower part of the wall, for example, is decorated with ornamental wallpaper, and the upper, lighter part, is decorated small flowers. In the same way, you can arrange large monograms or a floral pattern with discreet geometric ripples, giving the impression of a solid background.
Two types of wallpaper are used for zoning, but only if they are not competitors. Colored companions share, for example, a children's room, allocate a zone at the desktop. At the same time, the junction should not be defiant, it is not beaten with moldings, it is even better if it is angular.
Patchwork technique
The combination is performed using flaps, for which canvases are selected that are in harmony with each other. They are cut into identical or different pieces, glued end-to-end or overlapped, placed like on a chessboard. The flaps can be two-color or have more shades, with various geometric shapes: square, rectangular. They are cut out in the shape of a circle to make appliqués on ready-made walls.
Such a panel looks stylish at the head of the bed, in the nursery. If the color scheme seems too colorful, it is balanced with a few white fragments.
Niche selection
When trying to disguise niches that seem like a lack of a room, they often achieve the opposite effect. It is better to go the other way by highlighting them. To do this, wallpaper of a different color is glued there or a couple of tones darker than the main ones. If you apply textured wallpaper, equip a niche with lighting, it will create an interesting interior relief, enliven the room with a play of shadows.
The use of cold tones will allow you to visually move the wall away, to shift the focus to the object that is located in the niche.
Room zoning
Sometimes one room is divided into zones, each of which performs its own function. Along with other methods, a method is used when part of the space is separated from the rest using wallpaper with patterns or other color shades.
The solutions are quite unusual. Separation is achieved not only by color, but also by texture. One option is to separate, for example, the kitchen from the dining room, pasting it with structural wallpaper for painting. Some zone is decorated with a floral ornament, and the next one is decorated with a checkered print of the same range. The main thing will be not to make a mistake with the arrangement of furniture.
Zoning with wallpaper will help to define the boundaries of the zone without effort and extra spending: neither drywall partitions nor heavy curtains are required.
Brick or stone masonry in the spirit of a loft is less and less popular. Such a change in the interior requires a considerable investment of time and resources, which is not always acceptable due to the excessive load on the foundation. In conditions especially small apartment it is appropriate to replace this material with its imitation.
The room, pasted over with light wallpaper, is complemented by a wall, as it were, made of white brick. Red brick will look good surrounded by matte gray or white walls. An apron in the working area of the kitchen, a fake fireplace in the living room will not be discordant if the colors of the companions are correctly maintained. The texture of the brick is conveyed so realistically that it is possible to distinguish it from the real one only by touching it.
Photo wallpapers, like any cladding with an active pattern, are combined only with plain walls. It doesn't matter what story the eye falls on initially. The main thing is to follow the basic rules:
- choose the right drawing;
- guess the size;
- observe the correspondence in quality and palette between the photo wallpapers and the main wallpapers.
Types of megacities will not have to be combined in color. They will go with almost everything, if they are not variegated or completely monophonic. Juicy greenery is best placed in rooms abounding in light. A white, beige or grayish main background harmonizes well with it.
Rooms with windows to the north are decorated with bright, large images. Sunflowers or oranges will warm and add sun. The rest of the walls are pasted over with light, warm, dim wallpaper.
Wall murals are also used for zoning, to emphasize the horizontal, to highlight architectural ledges, niches. Not so often they are combined with contrasting saturated companions: beige is combined with purple, green, blue with orange. Images with perspective will significantly affect the size of the room.
To emphasize the interesting texture of the coating, the room is decorated in a single color. The use of catchy textures must be balanced with calm shades, the absence of unnecessary details, patterns. Explicit texture is usually combined with the same companions or at least close in thickness. The seams between them should not be placed on flat wall and take it to a corner.
Textured wallpapers are the best alternative to liquid ones. The texture can appear in the form of stripes and curls, abstract images, vegetation. It is convenient to glue the coatings, you can paint them, they are joined on the walls, they decorate the ceilings with them.
At first glance, liquid wallpaper looks like decorative plaster, suitable for any room, goes well with non-woven.
The most acceptable combinations are those that are achieved by playing with color. Liquid wallpaper is easy to combine with each other, other materials, supplement with drawings, original patterns. A panel is created from them, and if “kneaded” thicker, then decorative three-dimensional elements, for example, imitation of stucco molding.
focus point
A kind of visual anchor that attracts the attention of the person entering the room, a beautiful detail that is the center of the interior, act as a focal point. It can be natural, such as a niche, a fireplace, or big window behind which a beautiful view opens up.
If there are no such architectural details or a delightful panorama, then a painting, sculpture, furniture group, which the designer “appoints” as the main ones, can act as a focal point. It will help to highlight them. proper lighting, background wallpaper. The latter are combined in such a way that part of the wall differs in shade from the main one and is monophonic or stands out with an unusual pattern. The effect can be complemented by framing, decorative ornaments.
decorative ornaments
To change the interior without starting a grandiose repair, it is enough to use ready-made or hand-made decorative stickers. They are easily glued, now there are such that they are removed without consequences.
The themes and style of this decor are very diverse, suitable for any stylistic direction: loft, avant-garde. These can be small stickers or large silhouette images of people or animals. With their help, they enliven the atmosphere of the children's room, place accents in the living room, combine disparate pieces of furniture, appliances in the kitchen, add positive to the bedroom.
The combination of wallpaper combinations in the rooms
Not everyone likes experiments, they decide to move away from the traditional wallpapering of each room with wallpaper of the same color. In order for the fresh renovation to look harmonious, it is first necessary to study a large number of recommendations from knowledgeable designers, study examples with photos, develop an idea that would take into account the functional features of each room.
Living room
The room where visitors are received is often called the hall. Here they receive guests, hold evening gatherings with tea parties, meet colleagues, important guests. Therefore, it should not only be comfortable for households, but also maintain the image of the owners as successful people, not without taste. It is not worth saving on the quality of finishing this room. Classics are applicable here, a combination of silk-screen printing, glass wallpaper, the use of non-woven, vinyl wallpaper.
The hall most often serves as a living room and dining room, sometimes a bedroom. Some of the corners may be working area or a library. Wallpaper partners will help divide the space into zones. The main violin is played by the size of the room. If the living room is small, it is better to resort to light shades. In the vast expanses of fantasy, you can not limit, experiment with textures, colors.
The recreation area is usually made lighter, decorated with plain canvases or with a small pattern. The place where it is located cushioned furniture, fireplace group, plasma will benefit from the design of more saturated colors, beautiful patterns.
Bedroom
Since the zone is intimate, they proceed only from their own preferences, having previously agreed on the basic principles with a partner.
The main role of the room is to help to relax, to provide a good rest. Bright contrasts, catchy patterns are not appropriate here. It is better to decorate the walls with soothing colors: beige and white, who likes a darker bedroom - various shades of brown, blue.
The texture is better to choose smooth. In addition to traditional, trendy fabric wallpapers look good in the bedroom. It is desirable that they echo with textiles: curtains, bedspreads. If you combine them with other types, then the joints will have to be beaten with moldings or slats due to a mismatch in the thickness of the materials.
Combining different types of wallpaper, the headboard is pasted over with textured, darker materials, photo wallpapers, and emphasis is placed on it. In order to isolate the sleeping place, the accent strip continues along the ceiling.
Kitchen
In the kitchen, solving the problem of the right combination of colors is not so simple. There is a lot of furniture here, one of the walls is more often occupied by tiles, there is very little space left for wallpaper. In addition, they need to be combined not only with all the furniture, but also with the work area, refrigerator, and other household appliances.
In order not to oversaturate the kitchen with paints, the wallpaper duet must be made neutral, without large patterns. A large kitchen-dining room is decorated more brightly, but pastel shades, light colors will still look more harmonious here, if the drawings are small.
Bathroom
The microclimate of the room is not conducive to pasting it with wallpaper. Other coatings that resist moisture well are more appropriate here. But if the bathroom is spacious, well ventilated, then it is quite possible to decorate it partially with wallpaper, especially since the canvases are easy to change if it suddenly turns out that they are slightly peeled off.
It is better to use moisture resistant, washable materials. Liquid wallpaper is also suitable, which, after hardening, is covered with acrylic varnish. Apply options with vinyl wallpaper. They are expensive, but their level of fixation can be increased with special glue. Moisture-resistant self-adhesive, glass wall paper is also a good solution. All of them are well combined with each other, with 3D, photo wallpapers. The latter are best not placed directly at the shower. This zone is decorated with tiles, and the wallpaper is pasted at the washing machine, sink, in the toilet area, where splashes do not reach. The main thing is that the combination of color and texture does not cause any complaints.
Children's
In this room, you can let the colors run wild. But even here it's better to stick to general rule and do not combine more than 2-3 colors. Of these, only 2 can be saturated.
For the little ones, choose neutral shades. It is not necessary to follow the commitment of girls to pink, and the boys to blue. Any colors can be chosen. Among the most popular for children are green and yellow, peach and apricot, natural colors tree, green tea, olive, lilac.
The nursery, like the bedroom, needs a comfortable environment. Gloomy shades are inappropriate here, bright and cheerful ones are welcome, but not distracting from classes. A room for two children can be divided into individual areas with different types of wallpaper, highlight the play area with accent canvases, diversify the design with decorative stickers in the form of animal silhouettes, geometric shapes, exotic plants, missiles and ships.
A patchwork technique is used so that the colors of the patches match the tone of the floor. A wall with photo wallpaper, stylized drawings will look good.
Hallway and corridor
This room is rarely spacious. In most cases, it is narrow and long. You should not make it very dark, except to make the lower part of the walls in darker colors if the border between the companions runs across.
The joint between the ceiling and the wall is often made out with a special side, where the backlight is masked. This technique helps to "raise" stretch ceiling, enliven the interior with highlights from it. Close and narrow corridor it will seem much more spacious with a competent layout of wallpaper, thoughtful lighting.
In a room not cluttered with furniture, wallpaper inserts, moldings and borders look beautiful, in harmony with the mirror frame, medium-sized geometric and floral patterns.
The area closest to the front door should preferably be covered with washable wallpaper or wear-resistant glass. Posters, photographs, all kinds of stickers will help decorate the corridor and make it more alive.
Antique style, replete with columns, arches, marble elements, stucco can be realized without spending money on golden frescoes. Wallpaper imitating wall painting is combined with plain pastel colors. Wall murals with natural, historical scenes are placed on the walls. The style will be supported by moldings, moldings made of polyurethane.
The splendor of Rococo and Baroque will be emphasized by silk-screen printing, wallpaper on fabric basis. Paper wallpapers will help to imitate woven trellises. Instead of stucco, pompous moldings will go.
Classic color schemes from milky to burgundy, geometric prints, panels, a combination of wallpaper horizontally are quite feasible. Wooden slats are placed at the joints, the bottom of the wall is sometimes decorated with carved wood or plastic.
For the Victorian style, the best print on the wallpaper is stripes and checks, floral motifs.
The Japanese entourage will be supported by natural laconic colors, themed photo wallpapers.
The interpenetration of Europe and China is expressed in elegance, a mixture of familiar furniture with paper panels. Oriental style is wallpaper with unusual birds, flowers.
The Turkish style will fill the bedroom with turquoise and azure, dictates that the headboard be decorated not with a square, but in the shape of a dome, an arch.
Rustic country and Provence will require simple textures on the walls, matte canvases with a small scattering of flowers. It is advisable to combine the colors of the wallpaper with the curtains.
Alpine chalets are characterized simple materials, discreet cork or bamboo base in combination with imitation brickwork.
Modern trends take something from the classic interior, but there are also rough textures for metal or masonry. Photowall-paper with the image of mechanisms, gears is applied.
From the offers that are on the market, it is easy to get confused. Whitewash, water-based painting used now as proven over the years a budget option. Those who want a more modern design, the interior space of the premises is finished with wood and stone, decorative plaster, PVC panels, eco-leather are used. On sale there is a special wall-mounted linoleum, which can only scare away the name. With the famous flooring they have little in common. All materials are good in their own way, have a special texture, certain decorative properties. But not everyone can compare with wallpaper for the price, ease of installation. In addition, a room completely “wired” with stone or tile is unlikely to amaze with comfort. The best option is to combine.
Wallpaper and panels
Decorative coating, which is now made from a wide variety of materials, goes well with wallpaper. This tandem always looks presentable, expensive. The material of the panels, depending on the style of the room, is used very different: PVC, gypsum, textiles, wood shavings, sometimes marble and metal. Someone manages to beat parquet and laminate on the walls. Why not?
Combination with brick
Many now fashion styles(Gothic, Loft or Scandinavian) are very kind to unplastered walls. So that the brutality in the room does not go off scale, one of the walls is left “naked”, or only part of it. The rest of the perimeter is trimmed with wallpaper suitable for style and decor, colored or plain.
Combination with decorative stone
Depriving the walls of plaster, you will not always get to the brick. But if you still want something stone, then the exposed concrete wall can be finished decorative stone. The main requirement is to think over the decoration of the remaining walls, to link the types of coverage and decor with each other.
Tile
The most popular places of dwelling, a kitchen or a bathroom, cannot do without finishing with an equally popular material - tiles.

Wallpaper Combination Examples: Visual Techniques
The combination of wallpaper in the interior of a large living room
So that a room that is too spacious (sometimes this happens) does not seem uncomfortable and empty, choose dark-colored wallpapers (gray, purple, black) with large patterns as wall decoration. Images can be quite saturated if the interior design does not include active decor and furniture in intense shades. In this case, it is better to decorate the walls near which the furniture is to be placed with plain wallpaper, which perfectly echoes the patterned wallpaper on the accent wall.
Wallpaper combination for a small room
In a cramped room, thick tones, dark and contrasting combinations will be inappropriate. Leave large patterns and intricate geometry for rooms with ample square footage. To make a small room freer, you can cover one of the walls with light wallpaper with a subtle but textured pattern (for example, in a small rhombus - unlike other geometric images, it does not narrow, but rather expands the space). The remaining walls in the room can be pasted over with plain wallpaper with silk-screen printing or glossy coating.
The combination of wallpaper on uneven walls
Wall decoration, in particular wallpapering, is recommended after preliminary preparation of its surface - leveling. But experts do not recommend gluing light wallpaper even on walls with minor flaws - everything, even minor defects, will become visible on it. In a room with uneven walls, it is better to give preference to special leveling wallpapers with a thick base (for example, non-woven), with a discreet pattern or a spotted background.
The combination of wallpaper in the interior of the kitchen with high ceilings
A kitchen with high ceilings (and, for sure, large windows) is the dream of any housewife. But in order for the room not to look like a school gym, but to be cozy and hospitable, try to divide the kitchen space horizontally into two levels of different heights, pasting the walls with wallpaper from the same design collection: light on top (possible with horizontal stripes), and dark on the bottom . Emphasize the borders between the wallpapers with a contrasting border - so the ceiling will visually become a little lower.
The combination of wallpaper in a room with a lack of sunlight
To maintain harmony between light and color in a dark room, warm-colored wallpapers will help. In this case, one of the walls should be much brighter than the others. In order for the room to “play”, designers recommend using a monochrome combination of colors (for example, rich coral and pale pink, or golden and sandy).
The combination of wallpaper in a room elongated in length
One type of wallpaper in a disproportionate room can only enhance the effect of an endless tunnel. To prevent this from happening, try to visually stretch the short wall with wallpaper with a horizontal pattern, and long wall squeeze with wallpaper with a large, textured image. It is better to look for interesting combinations in one collection - so the chances of choosing wallpaper with taste increase a hundredfold.
Conclusion
With the help of a skillful combination and numerous contrasts, you can easily beat the shortcomings of the room: geometry, low (high) ceilings, small space, etc., and also divide it into functional zones. Thanks to the incredible selection that many wallpaper manufacturers offer us, creating interesting images for your home is really very easy and enjoyable.

Bold and gifted designers are constantly coming up with new design options. After all, using wallpaper for this is not only convenient, but also incredibly interesting.
Here are the most common techniques for combining them:
- Vertical stripes with different patterns are glued to the walls one by one. Such design options help to visually lengthen the premises, regardless of the color scheme. For this version of the sticker, you should select wallpapers of the same texture so as not to spoil the interesting design with sloppy seams. Playing with color will already attract the eye, and changing textures will be too much. The width of the stripes is usually also usually the same in this solution.
- Horizontal stripes are a good technique for visually expanding the room. It is good to use this method for rooms with high ceilings. The wall is conditionally divided into two horizontal parts. One type of wallpaper is glued on the bottom strip, and another type on the top strip. With horizontal separation, you can take wallpaper with a variety of colors. It can be patterns, symmetrical patterns, as well as monochrome colors.
- The method of small inserts: zones are marked on the wall on which wallpaper of the required color is pasted. Such zones usually have the form of geometric shapes. After the sticker itself, the wallpaper inserts are most often framed with a border or molding. Similar ideas are relevant in rooms where you want to draw attention to some kind of interior object - a picture, a mirror, a TV. This method of interior design is convenient because wallpaper inserts can be made on pasted or previously painted walls.
- Many designers make large-scale wallpaper inserts - the size of entire walls. Beautifully decorate rooms in this way using photo wallpapers. Today's selection is of such high quality that sometimes it is even difficult to distinguish them from the original works of art. Using the large-scale insertion method, you can achieve a spectacular selection of an entire wall, and when sticking wallpaper on the ceiling - the original zoning of the room.
- Patchwork technique: wallpapers with different patterns are cut into small pieces of the same shape and glued. Wall decoration options can be very different. This method allows you to interestingly glue canvases of various colors and textures, while the wallpaper should be very well combined with each other. They can be cut into squares, rectangles and even triangles. To perform the patchwork technique, we glue the wallpaper strips both overlap and butt.
- Highlighting the relief of the walls. It can be interesting to paste over niches and ledges with just two types of wallpaper. If you correctly highlight such structures with the help of more saturated or deep tones, you can make an interesting emphasis on the relief changes in the walls.
- Pasting walls and ceilings. Wallpapering the walls and ceiling in two colors will only be successful if the ceiling height is at least 2.7 meters.
- Pasting the corners of the room. Visually enlarge the room will help pasting its corners with wallpaper of a darker color when covering the walls with stripes of light colors. The corner combination technique is acceptable if the design does not require strict patterns in design. It is good to use such pasting options in rooms with corner furniture.
