IDEAS FOR YOUR WALLS THIS WINTER
The wallpaper industry has embraced increasingly exciting trends in recent years, with leading brands launching new materials and finishes to further enhance the visual aesthetics of our walls. During the winter months, warming up a wall with some earthy rich tones can make a huge difference to the overall look of the space, and immediately ensure the room feels more inviting and cosier. Entering into the world of wallpapers can be a minefield, as prices range hugely depending on the brand as well as the material used. If you are unsure of what to apply on your wall, it is safer to opt for a good-quality wallpaper or covering with an understated design that you won’t easily become bored with, and which will therefore stand the test of time. On the other hand, if you have a very large space, a statement wallpaper could be exactly what the space is crying out for, creating a major focal point. Here are some ideas from the latest collections…
