Gone are the days of tacky, outdated wallpaper. In the age of everything sleek and modern, bringing back wallpaper might seem like a step backwards. On the contrary, the right texture design of wallpaper can enhance the look and feel of any room, giving it a unique flare that just can’t be found by using paint. Keep reading to be pleasantly surprised by some amazingly chic and modern wallpaper designs making a comeback in 2019.
Depending on the look you are going for, there is a great selection of styles to choose from. Bold and bright, to muted and modern, and even textured, the possibilities are endless!
1. Mural
Mural wallpaper can totally transform your space. Whether you’re an adventure-seeker or need a relaxing sanctuary, murals are a unique way to bring the outdoors, indoors. You want to choose a scene/design that doesn’t clash with other colours in the room and most importantly, inspires you!
2. Geometric
Geometric wallpaper brings a sense of order and organization to a room. Using it in small spaces like a powder room or narrow entrance way can enhance these small spaces and also add a touch of sophistication when used as an accent wall in your bedroom. Fans of unique and eye-catching décor may want to try to highlight the ceiling by covering it with trendy wallpaper.
3. Abstract
Promoting originality and individuality, abstract wallpaper fits into the “textured” category because of its detailed design. Abstract designs feature shapes and obscure imagery rather than an identifiable picture, creating a sense of depth and adding dimension to your room.
4. Metallic
More durable than the average wallpaper, metallic print stays beautiful much longer. Its modern, elegant look is ideal for formal spaces like dining rooms and foyers, yet flexible enough to work in just about any space! The striking nature of metallic wallpaper means less is more, use it sparingly, choosing a design that isn’t overpowering.
5. Oversized Florals
Although it may seem slightly outdated to be talking about floral wallpaper, finding just the right oversized floral print can work wonders in a small space, like a bathroom. Placing it on only one wall will bring beautiful detail into the room, while not overdoing it. Floral print is also a great option to feminize a room, a sunroom or reading room.
