Wallpaper for bedrooms

Wallpapers are still the most popular and affordable wallcovering. Their softness and texture allow you to create a special comfort in each room. Wallpapers for bedrooms are incredibly diverse and are able to transform, refresh and decorate the interior.

Wallpaper is considered one of the most ancient wall coverings. The official creator of their consider Jean-Michel Papillon, who in 1645 came up with wooden blocks to create a long and clever pattern on paper wallpaper. In fact, the story takes us to ancient China, where 200 years before our era began to stick rice paper on the walls. Much later - in 1481 the French artist painted King Louis XI wall paper with charming angels on the blue of the sky, which quickly became a fashionable trend among the nobility.

Gradually, both began to decorate homes around the world, while performing quite practical functions. So, the design of this coating provides:

• excellent breathability;
• pleasant tactile sensations;
• good sound insulation depending on the type of wallpaper;
• the ability to carry out repairs on their own;
• presentable type of coating for several years;
• all sorts of prints and patterns, including photo printing;
• masking of some wall irregularities;
• minimum costs;
• environmental friendliness.

The last point is more in favor of the use of wallpaper among the interiors of bedrooms. The absence of extraneous odors and the impossibility of allergic reactions allows you to sleep in a quiet sleep in the room. In addition, modern design allows the wallpaper to be an organic coating in the classic bedroom, and in modern styles.

Depending on the direction, in the design of a bedroom wallpaper sometimes look completely different:

• For example, among the features of models for classic bedrooms choose a clear repetitive pattern, having notes of flowery.
• Provence and Country on the contrary, they may not have too careful drawing and even come out in plain colors, because the main accents here are furniture and accessories.
• The secondary importance of wallpaper design is observed and in modern style. The colors and images here should not drown out the stylistic decisions in choosing a bed and a furniture set.
• Abstractions on the wallpaper are firmly embedded in the style Minimalism.

Modern and traditional types of wallpaper are enormously different in the price segment and in aesthetic and practical qualities. Some create a glossy surface, others - soft relief structure. Knowledge of their features will allow to achieve the desired type of bedroom. The first and all known species are paper wallpapers. They are the most eco-friendly look and are great for the bedroom, consisting of paper and cellulose.

They have other advantages, for example:

• The most affordable prices;
• Brightness of colors;
• The variety of patterns and ornaments;
• Breathable surface that prevents the appearance of fungi and mold;
• The possibility of self-repair.

It should be said that the wallpaper of paper can be single-layer and two-layer. The latter are in a higher price range, however, and their operational characteristics are higher. Single-layer options are familiar with such problems as:

• Possible stretching pattern during pasting;
• Burnout in the sun;
• Fear of wet cleaning;
• Translucent drawings from old wallpaper with improper treatment of the walls before repair;
• Difficult removal of wallpaper from the wall during subsequent repairs;
• The lack of sound insulation, which is important for such a relaxation area as a bedroom.

A more advanced version of eco-friendly wallpaper can be considered non-woven wallpaper. Their composition includes non-woven material based on cellulose, which makes them very practical. For example, this option can surely be wiped with water, painted with water-based paint and enjoy the textured patterns. In addition, non-woven wallpaper "breathe" and meet all the requirements of fire safety. This view is also well suited for bedrooms.

At the same time, you should not confuse non-woven wallpaper with vinyl on non-woven base. These products have only a common appeal, differing in practical application.So, experts advise to use vinyl wallpaper for the corridor, bathroom or kitchen. In places where there is a healthy sleep, the presence of PVC can play with the owner a cruel joke. The fact is that vinyl does not allow air, it has a characteristic odor, being a completely synthetic material.

Vinyl species is one of the most attractive species called silk screen printing. On a perfectly smooth and thin surface, with the help of embossing, glossy patterns are created, conquering with the shine of silk threads. Despite the fact that vinyl wallpapers have excellent aesthetic properties and can be washed, their use in the bedroom is not recommended. And because experts advise to pay attention to more natural materials. For example, acrylic wallpapers have a thinner synthetic layer that provides better airflow.

And still thinking about quality repairs for many years, you can consider the option with natural wallpaper. They are made from materials such as cork, bamboo, jute, algae and even straw. As a basis can be used non-woven or base may not be at all.This option can be called one of the most environmentally friendly and presentable, having to all other a large number of advantages.

Pros natural cork wallpaper:

• Pleasant tactile sensations from the softness of the material;
• Non-flammability;
• Dust-resistant property;
• The possibility of pasting not only smooth walls, but also convex or concave surfaces;
• Service life is over 20 years.

At the same time, such models have a major disadvantage, which is an obstacle for those who want to make repairs on a budget. For a square meter of this unique canvas, you will have to pay at least 500 rubles, which, based on the full wall, results in a significant amount. In this case, designers advise not to abandon this attractive idea, highlighting the framed part of the wall for natural covering, leaving the rest of the bedroom walls for more budget.

Another innovative look is glass wall paper. They are made of special heated glass fibers using a kind of loom. This species is absolutely strong and durable, not afraid of even tenacious claws of pets. In addition, it is a washable wallpaper that is easily cleaned with any detergent.Glass fiber is used in the natural version and for painting, because the number of possible stains reaches 20 times.

The highest class of beauty for the bedroom have textile wallpaper. Being made of silk, velor and felt, they are extremely pleasant, although they are very capricious in their care. For example, fabric fade in the sun, and glue them better to entrust the master, because a drop of glue on the front side will remain there almost forever. And this option also captures dust, from which light wallpaper is more affected.

Despite all this, textile wallpaper is increasingly used in bedrooms. From them, it blows comfort and warmth, captivating those who want to transform an ordinary room into one of the coziest corners in their home. Coatings of this type well conceal minor irregularities of the walls and are an eco-friendly product. In some cases, liquid wallpaper is used for bedrooms. The decorative plaster made of non-woven fabric is complemented with mineral additives, for example, quartz sand, and is applied with a spatula to the walls. The result is a textured wall with the possibility of applying any patterns and images using a stencil and paint. Their lifetime is great.

The choice of color for the bedroom - a responsible event, because the color palette will affect both sleep and energy on waking. In this case, it is important to choose which value takes precedence. So, if you come home after a busy day, you want to take a break from everything, it is better to give preference to neutral soothing tones. If juicy shades invigorate and motivate you, you should forget about the stereotypical pastel shades of the bedroom and breathe life into the interior with rich colors.

This year was for designers a time of gradual forgetting of beige color. Despite the fact that this tone can be considered universal and suitable to everything, designers picked up something more interesting:

• So, white wallpaper is a good choice for a cozy corner of calm and balance. They are combined with absolutely any color of furniture and even pastel shades fill with force, turning them into bright accents.. And on the background of white ceiling and dark parquet, they significantly pull the room in height, adding visual space.

• Black wallpaper - Another trend this season. However, before giving them preference, it is important to soberly assess the area of ​​the bedroom, because any dark color eats space. The situation is different with spacious rooms, when a black tone gives the atmosphere luxury and solidity. It is worth noting that even in a large room, black wallpaper stuck to one wall, for example, at the head of the bed. Thus, the bed zone is accentuated favorably, and black is not the first thing that you have to look at every morning.

• Coming up with stylish combinations for the black wall, stylists recommend to draw on such multi-faceted gray wallpaper. However, they may not be monophonic, but two-colored, consisting of geometric patterns. For example, vertical gray-white stripes can be considered a simple and spectacular geometric solution. Addition for such a luxurious and concise bedroom can serve as a gray carpet with a long nap.

• Presence warm tones decorate the space of any bedroom.To do this, the walls can be decorated with wallpaper with imitation of natural stone, boards or wall paneling. It looks very colorful, keeping up with the new trends of the last season. The space can be completely covered with similar wallpaper, and maybe, as in the previous case, located at the head of the bed.

• Remain in fashion and blue tones. Stylists advise to choose for the decoration of the bedroom blue and turquoise shades of it, giving a special tenderness and tranquility. Experts recommend to treat the dark blue tones with caution, because an excess of color can turn a cozy bedroom into a cold and gloomy room. To solve this problem will help the combination of several tones of wallpaper.

• But green tones on the contrary, they are definitely loved by all stylists and psychologists. This positive and pleasant color palette can improve mood, relax after mental work and tune in to positive at the beginning of the day. For the bedroom, you can choose as plain wallpaper, and options with delicate flowers, such as pink peonies, violets and other intricate fancy floral motifs.

• Pink wallpaper, By the way, today are also at the peak of popularity. However, they did not leave the top of relevance, because the majority of women's bedrooms are decorated with this color. Here you should choose pastel colors from pale pink to gray-pink undertones.

• The progenitor of the same pink tone - red tint designers do not recommend to use for bedroom decoration. Red wallpaper too excite the mind, excite thoughts, and sometimes set up aggression. For people with sleep disorders, this color is contraindicated. However, not all shades of red should be excluded from the possible options. So, burgundy and brown wallpapers are perfect for noble classic bedrooms. In combination with luxurious furniture made of natural wood, they give an atmosphere of warmth and comfort.

• Lilac and purple tones psychologists have some doubts in wallpaper, because these shades, like blue tones, are cold. With their dark manifestation and excessive saturation, they can give cause for concern, and therefore, when choosing this color, one should pay attention to the pale lavender tone and delicate pastel of the color scale.

Separate attention deserve wallpaper with a pattern because in most cases, it is because of the unique ornament that this type of wall covering is given its preference. One of the most relevant types of floral wallpaper is considered. Indeed, they have been and will be popular for a very long time, because the magic of flowers captivates with its beauty and tenderness. The easiest and unobtrusive option will be wallpaper in a small flower, including no more than three shades. Their many varieties can be observed in the style of Country and Provence, where wild flowers settle on a green background.

If the bedroom is performed in modern styles, the original solution will be wallpaper with peonies and roses. They can be in the form of photo wallpapers, and may have an abstraction unobtrusive pattern. In the first case, large "live" flowers are placed on one of the walls, leaving the rest of the surfaces monotonous. The second option allows for the possibility of full wallpapering of the surface, provided the color is soft.

And yet, despite its beauty and appeal, color motifs more impressed female bedrooms.On the men, however, no one thought to forget, creating a stylish wallpaper with stripes and a cell. A vertical strip of contrasting shades visually pulls the room, while the cell creates English and Scottish stylistics.

Another popular subspecies are wallpaper with monograms. Patterns on them are repeated with a certain regularity. Since they can be performed in classical and modern themes, it is safe to say that the wallpaper is suitable for each style. In this case, large monograms are suitable only for spacious bedrooms, because, like any other large pattern, they tend to reduce the space. And when choosing this option, it is important to correlate it with furniture, remembering that bright and designer furniture will look more advantageous on barely noticeable wallpaper with monograms and vice versa.

The combination of wallpaper with the interior - an important point in the implementation of the perfect repair. No wonder designers strongly recommend before buying a coating to determine the color of the furniture set. However, you can use the universal colors. For example, beige and sand shades are equally well suited to white furniture as well as to dark sets.

There are designers and characteristic colors for furniture in light colors and dark. So, if the color of the headset has a warm chocolate tone, warm colors like green and brown are a good choice. If the color of the furniture is close to white, bleached oak and the color of natural wood, a golden hue would be the perfect solution. You should also pay attention to the wallpaper of white tone, light green, calm orange and olive shades.

Curtains for the wallpaper are selected with the following principles:

• The tone is either a tone darker or lighter;
• Beige or white, if the wallpaper has a bright and saturated color and pattern;
• With two-color wallpaper, the curtains can repeat one of the selected tones;
• Light shade to match the cool and warm color palette of the wallpaper.

When decorating a room with light curtains, designers recommend selecting white tones with a light blue tint. This little secret will allow you to refresh the bedroom, breathe cleanness into it, especially if the windows overlook the sunny side. Experts advise that the drawings on the curtains should be treated with some caution and not be abused in the wallpaper with images.With monochromatic wall coverings, patterns on curtains in the form of geometric stripes and monograms are permissible.

And yet, even with knowledge of the exact selection criteria, we often doubt whether the wallpaper will fit in a particular room. That is why it is important to decide for yourself what kind of furniture you are trying to create in the bedroom, because even the most attractive wallpapers on the wall may not bring joy if they are not to your liking. Explore the photo catalog of wallpapers and stylish options in the interiors to understand what is closer to you and your home.

After the exact awareness of their desires comes a selection of wallpaper. Their choice should take place in a variety of offers, and therefore should not make a decision by visiting only one store. In addition, you can always study the samples and carry out the selection of the photo on the Internet sites.

Remembering the criteria for the right wallpaper for small and spacious bedrooms, smooth and not very walls, high and low ceilings, you can definitely give preference to the chosen option:

• For a teenage boy The best solution would be to exclude saturated and aggressive colors, as maturing children need to adjust to a calm wave after a hard day.Gray-white wallpaper with the image of your favorite football player on the same wall or mystical character, space with numerous planets will be good options for an unusual design.

• Besides, for boy and for girl of early age The nursery can also be designed in brighter tones, because, according to psychologists, kids draw energy from their home, while teenagers come home to rest. At the head of the bed can be placed cars and princesses.
• In the nursery and adult bedroom You can use a different version of pasting, for example, wallpapering in a vertical combination is suitable for increasing the height of the room. In this wallpaper can be selected any. Plain and with monograms, they can be repeated at different intervals, which will look even more creative than strips over an equal distance.

• For the combination of suitable wallpaper, the same texture and close or combined in the picture. In order not to lose sight of their compatibility, it is enough to choose them from one collection of the same brand - as a rule, they are produced in several colors. Wallpapering using vertical combination can use in its arsenal one simple but very effective technique for increasing the height of the ceiling. To do this, one of the vertical stripes must go to the ceiling. It is best if the band is close to its color.

Win-win options for vertical combination:

• preservation of symmetrywhen two contrasting dark stripes are opposite each other;
• asymmetry, when one wide contrast strip can be opposite to several thin stripes;
• transition between colorswhen one wall is completely pasted over with one type of wallpaper, the second has a vertical combination from wide strips to thin ones, the third and fourth are completely made in a different tone.

Another possible method of design sticking can be horizontal division. A border of paper or plastic that runs horizontally perfectly extends a small room with high ceilings, for example, in apartments called "Khrushchev".Wallpaper may be the same on the lower and upper parts. Often, the height of the strip is directly related to the height of the window sills, but other options are also possible.

Classic combinations and divisions with horizontal combination in bedroom:

• one third of the wall below is made of striped wallpaper, wide the upper part is made of plain wallpaper;
• 2/3 - with a wide lower part, the wallpaper is selected with a large pattern, the top remains monotonous;
• 1/3 - bottom, made in a small repeating pattern, top - large monograms, combined in character.

Wallpaper zoning – This is the separation of different zones in a room with contrasting colors. Sometimes this technique is the only possible way to select areas in the bedroom, living room or children's room. When allocating zones in the bedroom, stylists recommend limiting them to a small number. For example, in a child’s room this could be a desk, and in an adult’s room a dressing room, however,most often a bed is subject to zoning. For its implementation allowed a combination of bright wallpaper with calm.

The bedside area can be distinguished with the help of wallpaper with patterns, photo wallpapers with wide-format printing. To highlight areas such as a dressing table or wardrobe, it is enough to purchase patterned wallpaper that matches the tone of the main color. This will create a holistic view of the room, while dividing it into zones.

Zoning in the nursery can occur in two cases:

• a room is shared by two heterosexual children;
• The room includes a sleeping place, a work area and a play area.

In the first case, the wallpaper is chosen contrasting and are joined using a plasterboard partition, effectively smoothing the transition. In the second case, the bright wallpaper is located on the working and playing area, and monochromatic - at the bed. In the zoning of the bedroom, the key point is its shape and size. So, for a narrow bedroom, characteristic of the "Khrushchev", you must carefully consider the design, without turning the room into a tunnel that has no end. And because the wallpaper here should be chosen contrast.For a rectangular bedroom, the long walls are plastered with light tones, while others are dark. Thus, all the attention is riveted on a dark wallpaper, which means that the room seems to be more proportional.

When zoning narrow bedroom its owners will have to face the fact that in a small space will have to connect several zones. For this can be used two types of wallpaper. Dark with a pattern are located near the working area at a small wall, light and calm - in the sleeping area. You can also use another technique with three types of wallpaper. The leading and main color is glued over the whole space, the second is the sleeping area, the third is the working one, the borders or plastic panels serve as delimiters.

In the square bedroom zoning is easier, but it is also important to follow all the basic rules. One of the key recommendations is the division of the room with preservation of integrity, because in a square room lack of thought is especially noticeable. And because sticking on the working area white wallpaper, and on the bedroom - blue, you should connect them with accessories.So, blue pillows can harmoniously be placed on the chair of the working area, and the bed can be decorated with white curtains.

Experts admit that a bedroom with a workplace and a wardrobe can be perfectly divided with one type of wallpaper. Here, however, the masters recommend adding decorative plaster or liquid wallpaper. The combination of different textures is the trend of this season. So, plain wall coverings cover work areas, and bright and beautiful wallpapers are comfortably arranged at the head of the bed. Experts speak of this method as a concise and win-win.

Fashionable pages of magazines with interior design this year do not cease to repeat the use of two colors in the design of bedrooms. Transitions between them can be smooth and well-defined. Interestingly in this version look like striped walls with lines of different widths, created from different rolls of wallpaper.

Designers and tricolor combinations did not go unnoticed. The color under the first number in the trend list is white. It is successfully used as a base tone, diluting it with more saturated, but close to each other colors.

Summing up, it can be noted with confidence that the wallpaper for bedrooms today more than ever delight with its diversity and scope for creativity. Fashion houses contribute to this creativity with maximum impact, in each collection offering a combination of different types of coatings. Even a newcomer today is under the power to carry out design repairs and stick wallpaper, rejoicing and enjoying the transformed bedroom, in which they want to spend more and more time.
