How to choose the right color wallpaper for the interior?

In order not to make a mistake in choosing, to purchase multi-colored wallpapers that are really suitable for the existing interior, you must adhere to certain rules, listen to the advice of specialists.

Basic selection rules:

• It is imperative to check how well the selected color looks in the room. We must not forget that the lighting in the hardware store and living room is very different.

Important! You should not buy the first finishing material in the required volume, it is better to buy only one roll for testing to test it in a particular room and make the final decision - this is what you need or not. Better yet, take a probe.

• Before purchasing wallpaper, clearly think over the general gamut of interior decoration. In fact, this moment needs to be given maximum attention in order to profitably invest your money and buy finishing material of a suitable color. Simply put, you should know in advance what curtains, furniture and other components of the surroundings can be combined with the walls of your home.
• Keep track of color balance. Remember that too bright and extravagant walls will attract excessive attention. Perhaps in combination with furniture, plain walls will generally look best.
• Be sure to use texture to enhance color perception. Today on the market there are a huge number of roll-type coatings with relief spraying or embossing. Due to the microrelief of the surface of such materials, you can give the color performance a certain depth, and the interior itself will become more attractive.
• To visually expand the space, it is better to choose lighter, warmer tones of wallpaper. Finishing materials of this type, made in pastel shades, not only visually expand the available space, but also make the walls slightly weightless and airy.

Important! The darker you buy the wallpaper, the more limited the room will seem.

• When choosing materials for wall decoration, rely on combinations of natural tones. Giving preference to wallpaper of natural color, you knowingly insure yourself from buying tasteless coatings or materials that will definitely not work well with your interior. This is incredibly important, especially for people who do not have much experience in choosing decorative materials.
• If you want to choose a color that will help unite all the rooms in the house, you will have to try, because many novice designers make one common mistake - they perceive the room as a self-contained enclosed space. In reality, this is not so, because the decor should be selected so that the room attracted not only by itself, but also looked good in combination with the rest of the rooms within the same apartment.
• When choosing wallpaper colors, be sure to consider the design of the ceiling.Not many people think about combining the decoration of the ceiling and walls, but in fact, in fact, the ceiling is the most massive element of any room. Therefore, it is not always worth coloring it with white. If you want it to blend well with the walls, paint it in the same color as the walls, only lighter by several shades.

Guided by these rules, you can independently choose the appropriate option for wall decoration, which will harmonize all the rooms in the house.

• Liquid. Despite the fact that such wallpapers appeared recently, they can boast a wider selection of color pigments than their traditional “brothers”.

• Vinyl cloths on a non-woven basis. They have the same qualities and advantages as their counterparts with a paper base.
