Combine the wallpaper correctly

The process of sticking wallpaper is very simple, but for a beginner it can be of some difficulty. And if you add another combination of different colors, then you can not cope without outside help. But if you take into account the rules and tips on how to correctly combine colors and textures, you will get a harmonious and stylish room, without any additional cost and effort.

Take into account the height of the ceiling

This is the most basic criterion that should be taken into account when choosing a wallpaper paste design:

• If the ceiling height is below 2.5 meters, you need to use light-colored wallpapers and a rough texture. The drawing in this case may be present, but exclusively not large.
• For ceilings with a height of 3 meters or more, pay attention to the wallpaper with a large pattern. The most appropriate will look abstract and geometric patterns. If the area of ​​the room allows, you can use both light and dark colors.

Choosing invoices

If you decide to take a chance and combine different canvases, you should take seriously the selection of thickness and texture. When combining mainly use the same type of cloth:

• If the joining takes place only in the corners, then you can not pay special attention to the thickness and texture, since in such a place the joint is still not visible.
• Well, if the connection of paintings on a flat wall, then the difference in thickness will be very visible and will only emphasize the transition.

Important! When choosing a wallpaper, always take into account the parameters and area of ​​the room, air humidity and functionality.

Choose material

Today, the market offers a huge assortment of wallpapers of a variety of colors and textures. But for combination, the most often used:

• Paper. This type is suitable for rooms with dry conditions. Due to the possibility of acquiring multi-layer paper coatings, the use of wallpaper canvases is possible even in rooms with threats of mechanical damage. This type of material is suitable for combination with any type of wallpaper.
• Vinyl. This type has enhanced practical properties. In comparison with others, these wallpaper cloths are very strong and elastic. Vinyl wallpaper, thanks to a special treatment, is suitable for gluing rooms with high humidity.

Important! Vinyl wallpapers are most beneficial to combine with paper.

• Non-woven. This material is used for pasting unprepared walls on which there are slight defects. Due to the non-woven elasticity, all the flaws of the wall surface are masked. Despite its relief, this type of wallpaper can be combined well with paper and vinyl.
• Textile. The most stylish and expensive option. They look beautiful on the walls, but not resistant to moisture. Therefore, they should be pasted in dry rooms.You can combine with non-woven and paper coatings.
• Liquid. At its core, it is an analogue of decorative plaster. Not recommended for use in rooms with high humidity. It looks most impressive in combination with non-woven and glass wallpaper.

Important! When designing wallpaper gluing in two colors, it is very important to choose glue. It must be universal or matched to each type of wallpaper.

Do-it-yourself design

Before you start gluing wallpaper paintings, you need to think about the future design. It is very important that despite the fact that you use different colors and textures, the density of the paintings is the same. In order for the design of wallpapering to be not only stylish, but also functional, it is necessary to take into account some recommendations when combining:

• When combining wallpaper on the walls, it is necessary to take into account their coloring, ornament and geometric patterns.

Important! If you have the opportunity, before purchasing a wallpaper, consult with a designer who will tell you the relevance of your choice.

• Mostly for rooms use 2-3 species. The most important thing is to make sure that your chosen color scheme fits into the perimeter of your room.

Important! If you are having difficulty combining, pay attention to ready-made kits.

• Thanks to this interior design, functional zoning of the premises can be carried out without special difficulties and financial costs.
• When designing wall stickers with different wallpapers, great attention should be paid to lighting. If the room is dim or dark, you should buy light colors.

Important! Always stick to one style. Abstraction will not be in harmony with the classics, and floral prints with a 3D effect.

The main options for combining:

• Vertical. Everyone knows that vertical stripes visually increase the height of the ceiling. However, the bands may be irregular. In a modern interior decoration, one wall can have striped wallpaper, and the rest of the walls are glued in plain or with a dull canvas pattern. Variants of stripes can be very diverse and have differences in color and pattern. The main thing is not to forget about the same texture.

Important! To further increase the height of the ceiling, you can glue the wallpaper so that the stripes “go” to the ceiling.

• Horizontal This combination is a classic of the genre. It has been widely used for a long time, but today, taking into account the brightness of colors and the abundance of different patterns, it has become even more interesting. This technique is most appropriate to use for rooms with high ceilings, but a small area. This, as a rule, can be one horizontal strip that surrounds the room. Most often, it is pasted over in height equal to the height of the window sills. Depending on your style of interior decoration, this horizontal strip can be pasted in the upper or lower plane.
• Zoning. As mentioned earlier, a combination of different colors and textures is used to divide the room into functional zones. With this division, the use of wallpaper paintings of different textures is allowed. In order to hide the joints, it is best to make the junction in the corners.

Important! Zoning is an excellent solution for the design of a children's room. Thanks to this method, you can separate your baby’s bed and play area.

• Panel and various decorative inserts. The essence of this method is that one type of wallpaper is glued in the form of a panel. Today, for this design, various silk-screen inserts, embossed or textured options are used. If the style you set allows you, then the elements of contrasting color are framed by a molding frame. This option fits perfectly into the style of Country, Provence and classic.If you decide to use the panel in the modern style, then you should make the frame from the wallpaper that “plays the role” of the panel.

In addition, there are also non-standard ways of combining wallpaper.

Interesting ideas for wallpapering:

• Patchwork pasting. Patchwork design is also relevant in interior design. It is suitable for lovers of experimentation and something original. In order to realize such an idea, you need to purchase wallpapers of various colors, textures and ornaments, cut them into shreds. Gluing is carried out in random order, by the method of “joint to joint”.

Important! Patchwork gluing fits perfectly in the design of a children's room.

• The use of wallpaper paintings of different designs. Using this method, zoning of the premises is carried out. They use wallpapers with different textures and colors. The joint is decorated with molding.
• Separation of walls into two parts. This method is the latest fashion trend of modern design. Visually, the wall is divided into two equal parts. This division is carried out using two completely different types of wallpaper. In this gluing method, there is only one rule: the joints must be decorated with molding.

Important! In the process of selecting combinations, it should be remembered that in both types of wallpaper there must be some kind of similar element. It can be the same style of a picture or ornament, similar geometry, shades of the same color.

We select colors and patterns:

• A combination of plain wallpaper with different shades. This wall decoration option is intended for monotony lovers. Its essence lies in the fact that one of the walls is papered with wallpaper in bright colors.
• The combination of monotony with patterns. This option is most appropriate to paste on the “panel” method. Patterns in this case can be very different - starting from floral options and ending with a geometric pattern.
• Combine patterns. The most famous option for this combination is a strip and floral patterns. But no less successfully and stylishly “woody” themes and floral motifs will harmonize, and geometric shapes - with abstraction. This version of sticking different wallpapers is considered “dangerous”, since you can go too far with the drawings. Therefore, carefully consider all options.
• We combine different colors. The most important rule of this design of walls is that neutral tones are combined with more active ones. This technique is also widely used for zoning.

Important! To make the combining process even easier, take a few more tips:

• In the process of choosing a “companion”, always carry a scrap of already acquired wallpaper with you.
• With the vertical method of combining, one should choose wallpaper of the same thickness, since in this embodiment the texture difference is very visible.
• Do not forget that such a “design move” makes it possible to visually hide defects in the room.
• Combine vibrant colors with neutrals.
• Experiment with textures.
