How to Choose Right Wallpaper Designs for Your Living Room?

Sometimes it can seem overwhelming to pick the ideally designed wallpaper for your home's interiors, especially for your living rooms in India. This is because of the many aspects we must consider with regard to colours, styles, patterns, and textures. However, half the battle is won by knowing what to look for while choosing wallpapers.

Your space can have a formal feel using wallpaper with a simple pattern or one with tiny patterns. Similarly, a room can instantly appear casual and informal by adorning your living room with bright wallpapers with geometric patterns or block prints. Thus, we can always play with different colours, textures, and patterns. This is how we can curate the perfect design that breathes life into our wall-covering ideas for living rooms.

 

The question arises - What is the best wallpaper for a living room?

 

Given that there are various types of wallpaper for every room, it becomes crucial to pick the wallpaper whose design fits best for your living room. An ideal wallpaper that is in line with the theme you want it to portray.

 

How to Pick the Ideal Wallpaper for Your Living Room?

 

In India and worldwide, wallpapers come in a wide variety of designs, hues, and textures. Choose whether you want a certain style of wallpaper as per the design requirements of the entire living room.

The following are some of the styles or designs that could be useful -

 

Wallpaper Styles

 

The wallpaper should complement the rest of your decor in terms of style. It should seamlessly blend in with the rest of your room.

 

Some style genres include:

Formal: Various elegant wallpaper patterns, like a hand-painted print or damask, could be suitable for a traditional interior.

Glam: Wallpaper options for glam include embossed, flocked designs with crystal or glitter embedded in them, as well as dramatic reflective patterns.

Casual: You can add different patterns to your décor, like a plant, floral, or textured print.

Country: For your country décor, a plaid, chequered, or country motif pattern could be a good choice.

Victorian: A good floral damask makes for a great period choice.
Contemporary: Geometric or abstract patterns can work well for modern walls.

 

Wallpaper Colours

 

Colours are important elements for treating different functional props of your interiors, such as furniture, windows, and flooring that make up the furnishing of your living rooms. For instance, bold colours can add a touch of sheer elegance, running high on minimalism for your living rooms. Choose colours from a broad spectrum of colours and sequence them one after the other. Wallpaper designs with such patterns can generate more intrigue in your living rooms.

 

Wallpapers Indirectly Impact Size

 

Vertical lines have a way of giving the illusion of a higher ceiling. Naturally, a living room wallpaper pattern with vertical repeating lines is a great method to give areas a taller appearance. Similarly, horizontal lines can mimic a wider appearance. So, choosing wallpaper designs with vertical or horizontal lines can create the illusion of a smaller or bigger size.

The scale of the pattern may alter how big, or tiny a space ends up appearing. A giant poster with a darker backdrop visually shrinks the scale of a big space. The pattern and colour contrast will create the optical illusion that the walls are being drawn in closer, making the space seem cozier. On the other hand, wallpaper designs with smaller patterns can indirectly make a living room with a small space seem larger, depending on the colour and design. Therefore, it makes sense to consider the scale and size of the pattern too at the time of choosing the design for your wallpapers for your living rooms.
