While many homeowners think wallpaper is outdated, more and more interior designers are suggesting it to their clients, as it can completely transform a space while covering imperfections. Here are a few trends you can use to inspire your next home improvement project. 

3 Wallpaper Trends to Inspire You

1. Large-Scale Florals 

While smaller floral prints can look reminiscent of the 1980s, large-scale varieties provide a beautiful, modern take on floral designs. Pay attention to bright florals or nature-inspired wall coverings, and use them in living spaces, sunrooms, or bathrooms. Using large-scale floral options will also give personality to otherwise bland parts of your home, such as mudrooms or laundry areas. Fun, bold floral patterns also look excellent in children’s rooms or play areas, especially if you have a nature theme in those spaces. 

2. Art Deco Designs

If you are looking for a wallpaper with visual interest that isn’t loud, put in an art deco option. Known for its geometric, fine lines, it’s the perfect addition to an entryway, office, or bedroom. For an extra touch of elegance, install art deco option with metallic inlays. Consider golden trellis designs; Havana-inspired, repeating fan designs; or architectural triangular prints to make any room more visually interesting. 

3. Textured Wallpaper

To create a statement wall, install a textured option. Available in everything from brick patterns and plaster-like finishes to varieties that feel like velvet, textured wallpaper gives your home a truly high-end appearance while creating a warm feel.

Before putting it in, consider how much use the area gets, and how it will stand up against wear and tear. Since some textures can be difficult to clean, select a lower-texture option for areas commonly used by kids or pets.
