Bold design with a love for color and pattern are just a few elements driving a continued trend to bring the outdoors in with walls treated with wallpaper. Specifically, botanicals lead the way with 3D textures, grasscloth, cork, straw and wicker wallpaper ranging from traditional florals and trompe l’oeil to tropical botanicals and contemporary geometric’s, according to Lotte Brouwer at LivingEtc.
Green seems to be the color of choice alongside earthy tones that leave a bold imprint in the space applied. Classic and bold botanicals are holding their own in the mix of wallpapers offered but with bold tropical prints gaining as a popular choice.
Not just for the dining or powder room anymore, wallpapers are being applied to ceilings, focal walls and bathrooms, especially as a backdrop (pictured above), in this case, giving the perception of tile. Popular color trends are also making bold blues and greens a great choice that offer a nice complement to the furniture in the room.
Geometric wallpapers offer a fresh, contemporary backdrop for transitional spaces with offerings that take on a shiny new twist with shades of rose, silver and gold, according to House Beautiful.
Popular grasscloth and silk wallpapers add a natural touch that now include wicker and straw materials whereas murals afford us the opportunity to create backdrop or panorama scene often depicting nature.
Agate wallpapers that imitate the marbled effect of gemstones are trending up. They bring a fluid movement to the space.
All said, you’re headed in the right direction when considering these wallpaper trends for your home!
