With so many styles, patterns and textures to choose from here at Holcombe Interiors, based in Ramsbottom, Bury. It can be a daunting task when selecting wallpaper for interior design. You’ll want to make sure the texture, design or colourway isn’t going to date your home or clash with existing decor, but at the same time you don’t want something so modern that it feels like you’re living on a space ship (or you may do, in which case there is also something for you).
Today we’re going to take a look at how to go about finding the perfect style, design or colour of wallpaper that will compliment any room in your home.
If you’re looking to go bold, consider opting for patterns that are printed. Printed patterns can also be surprisingly subtle if they blend with the décor in your space. Or maybe a subtle design with a pastel colourway is more your kind of thing. Whatever your tastes in interior design Holcombe Interiors based in Ramsbottom will have the perfect option for you.
1. Consider the Space
Ask yourself, can I go with a pattern or would a solid colour be more complimentary to the room? If it’s a child’s bedroom, perhaps a themed pattern would be best, if a feature wall, maybe you want bold and vibrant pattern or perhaps you want a more subdued textured or colour wallpaper to compliment other features in the room.
2. Choose a Pattern That Doesn’t Distract
Although you may want to add some personality to your space by using a pattern, it’s important that the pattern doesn’t distract from all the other features in your room, larger areas with a very busy pattern can look amazing but be careful it is not too distracting.
3. Will The Wallpaper Suit The Home?
If your home is a pristine new build, then you might want to go with something modern to emulate the clean lines of today’s buildings. If you have a cottage-style home, then you might want to go with something rustic that sits well with the characteristics of the property. Think of your home’s style and personality before deciding on the wallpaper.
4. Select a Wallpaper That Fits In Your Space
Consider the size of the room or wall that you’re going to be decorating before choosing the best wallpaper for interior design. Bold patterns can be a distraction from other design features. Ask yourself what is going to be the main focal point in that room, if you decide it’s the wallpaper then you give yourself free reign over patterns.
5. A Subtle Pattern
Sometimes a subtle wallpaper with a small, discreet pattern or a modern, minimalistic design can be better than the bold and loud, sometimes clean lines can be best. Interior Design is all down to personal taste.
6. Home Office Wallpaper Ideas
If you are planning on using a space as a home office, then try to pick a pattern that reflects this rather than choosing a pattern that will be distracting to you. Calming, subtle colours, textured and minimalistic designs can be both elegant and stylish whilst maintaining the feeling of a work like environment.
Conclusion
The best wallpaper for interior design is a personal choice, at the end of the day it’s you that will see it in situ every day, but that doesn’t stop you from making a well thought out decision, and that can depend on factors that are unique to your tastes. What’s great about wallpaper is that it’s easy to remove and change, so stick with the design, texture or colour you like, even if it doesn’t work out in the end. Interior Design in the home is all about trial and error. Be individual, be you!
