Make a statement with Wall Coverings

Wall coverings are a great way to add design to your space. They can make a room look bigger or smaller, spacious or intimate.

Are you looking to promote a sunny disposition, modern sensibility, Italian elegance, an artistic and soft feeling, or calm? Create any mode by considering pattern, texture, color, and light when selecting your wall coverings.

Pattern

Choosing a pattern has a big impact to a room. A large-scale pattern with dramatic colors can add a formal look to a room. A small-scale pattern can create a feel of spaciousness. Vertical patterns can take your space to a new height with a vertical pattern while a horizontal pattern helps narrow rooms feel wider. V or U shape vertical patterns will make a ceiling appear higher.

Texture

A textured paper can help cover up imperfections in a wall. A pattern with real texture or a lot of movement can hide or camouflage wall imperfections. Patterns with tactile surfaces include grass and string cloth. If you are not able to repair a wall due to budget constraints, wallpaper is a great option.

Color

As always color sets the mood in a room. Ask yourself, how do you want to feel in the space. Blues are calming, reds add warmth. Browns add a warm and natural feel to a room.

Light

Dark colors absorb light, making walls appear closer and the room smaller and more intimate. In smaller rooms look for a covering that will reflect light around the room, patterns with light colors.
