What to Keep in Mind While Choosing Wallpaper
- Room Functionality: Always choose wallpaper based on the room’s functionality rather than mere aesthetics. For example – Kitchens and bathrooms need moisture-resistant wallpaper
- Consider the room size: Like paint, wallpaper with a lighter color can make a small room feel larger and airier, while darker wallpapers can create a cosy, intimate vibe in larger rooms.
- Design and color: Choose a design that complements the room’s decor. Also think long-term and choose a wallpaper design that you will enjoy over time rather than following a fleeting trend.
- Installation: Some wall papers are easy to install while others require careful and highly professional installation. A smooth, primed wall surface is essential for flawless wallpaper application. It’s always better to hire a professional.
- Durability: Make sure to use a durable wall paper material at high traffic areas.
Maintenance: Some wall papers have delicate finish. Choose a wallpaper which is easier to maintain, as somewall papers can be expensive and changing them frequently can be both time consuming and heavy on your pockets. Before committing, get samples to test how they look in different lighting conditions.
