Kinds

Now the wallpaper is divided into types, depending on what is included in their composition.

Paper based

These are the simplest and most common products that have existed for a long time and were very popular during the Soviet era. Now they are considered the most simple and cheap compared to other types. Low price - almost the only advantage of such products.

The benefits can also be attributed the simplicity of their sticking and docking. They are popular among buyers because of the variety of color design and low prices.Manufacturers present variants with beautiful and unusual patterns, including voluminous patterns, as well as models with beautiful patterns.

But this type of wallpaper is considered the most short-lived and fragile. The thickness of such coatings is extremely small. In addition, these wallpapers are not able to hide the irregularities on the walls. On the contrary, they can even emphasize surface defects.

Fabric

This type of wallpaper may include textiles, including silk, cotton, synthetics. Moreover, all these materials are used both individually and together by combining. In the interior, they look very elegant and beautiful. Their cost far exceeds the price that manufacturers ask for paper models.

That is why they are great for rooms where the strength of wallcoverings is very important. Their advantage is average price, a wide selection of colors and textures.

Vinyl

This option has a top coating of polyvinyl chloride. It is this component in the wallpaper that protects the entire wall covering from moisture in case the humidity level in the room or in another room is too high. Moisture does not harm either the walls, which are reliably protected by the coating, or the wallpaper itself. Their service life is thus extended.

Vinyl wallpapers have one major drawback - due to the specific coating they are not able to pass air to the proper extent, so the walls do not breathe. But this type of wallpaper allows you to choose almost any texture and relief.

Glass fiber

The composition of this material includes fiberglass. The basis is often reinforcement. That is why this wall covering is of high quality and durability. Externally, these wallpapers look very luxurious and unusual. Because of their high strength, these models are durable. Manufacturers compare the life of such products with a plastic coating.

Since they contain cellulose, they provide the necessary level of air circulation in the room, therefore they are absolutely harmless.

Bamboo

The disadvantage of such coverage, many consider the high price. Some also do not like the fact that the choice of their color design is not as wide as the variety presented by manufacturers in the minds of other types of wallpaper. As a rule, outwardly such coatings repeat natural colors and textures. Therefore, they are able to fill any room with comfort and warmth.

From beads

Such coatings generally have a paper base, most often it is non-woven wallpaper. But the coating has an outer layer in the form of small beads. The texture is voluminous. By themselves, such a model wallpaper look pretty bright and unusual. Manufacturers offer texture models with different colors, including unusual shiny products.

Combination Rules

For the design of the walls, sometimes you have to use more than one version of wallpaper, but several at once. During repair often use two, three or more colors. Decorative wall-paper and their correct combination are the methods expanding and increasing space.

In addition, compliance with the rules of the combination of wallpaper allows you to make the interior of the room more harmonious and stylish. At the same time it is necessary to combine correctly not only colors and textures, but also materials, as well as prints on the wallpaper. There are the following combination rules:

  • Vertical stripes Multicolored wallpapers should be the same in width. This rule applies to those cases where you have opted for vertical combination. Moreover, their texture should be completely identical, as well as the quality of these coatings. When combined, the colors alternate either one after one, or two after two. Choosing colors for vertical blending,Try to give preference to either diametrically opposite contrasting shades, such as red and white, white and black, or, opposite to models that are in the same color range. The first option looks more colorful and unusual, and the second is more calm and neutral.

Moreover, the models of wallpaper for vertical combination can be both monophonic and with prints. Very colorful is the combination of polka dots wallpaper and coatings with a print in the form of a small strip. With vertical combination, it is better to overlap the wallpaper with overlap to make the coating look more presentable.

  • Horizontal wallpaper combination - This is quite a complex combination of coatings. It assumes that the upper and lower parts will differ in color design. At the same time, the vertical line separating both parts of the walls should be flat. Therefore, before you make pasting and separation of the wall, it is important to make all the measurements and marks. This combination uses lighter wall coverings on top than bottom. If you want to alternate several horizontal stripes, then pay attention to the height of the ceiling in the room.If the ceiling is low, the stripes should be narrow, if the ceiling is high, the width of the canvases should be larger.

The place of the joint must be very high quality. It is best to begin to customize the strip under the line of the floor. If you decide to divide the wall into two parts with wallpaper, the upper part should be about two-thirds of the wall, and the lower part should be much smaller.

  • When combining using wallpaper inserts Some requirements should also be followed. Thus, this method involves the preparation of the entire surface of the wall and pasting it with the same wallpaper, which are subsequently supplemented with inserts glued on top. Moreover, such inserts are often made in the form of a border or frame. Thus, the edges will not be bent and the coating will look more presentable. As a rule, brighter wallpapers or models with interesting and spectacular prints are used as inserts.
  • Pasting patchwork technique. This is a more complex method of combining, which involves the use of small pieces of wallpaper as patches and a combination of them among themselves. The rags can be folded and interchanged as a puzzle.And in this case, colors and textures are chosen both randomly and measuredly, alternating identical patches diagonally or in a checkerboard pattern.

With such a combination, it is better to give preference to coatings that have the same texture, quality and are made in at least one or two overlapping tones. You can glue wallpaper with both patches and overlaps.

  • Wallpaper is also combined in the case when there are niches or bumps in the room. At the same time these features of the room are trying to somehow highlight, using other wallpaper in color and texture. So you can make a big advantage out of such a drawback and decorate a room in a bizarre way. You can give preference to both a smooth color transition, such as from blue to blue, as well as a contrasting juicy combination.
