Create Space And Showcasing Wallpaper
Depending on the space, you can make a wall of paint and a whole other wallpaper, but our expert speaks of more “space and enhancement”.
We can decide, for example, a corner bed in a room that can be highlighted with paint and the desk in the corner with wallpaper to keep the harmony of the room!
This is what you can see in this room where the green headboard recalls that of the wallpaper while adapting perfectly to the whiteness of the moldings of this piece.
Another example, in this stay where the wallpaper wall gives a jungle style. It allows to integrate a part of the corridor to the living room and therefore to enlarge the room. The desk area is highlighted with a blue paint, the rest of the room is white.
To Combine Wallpaper And Paint on A Wall
It is important to prolong a wallpaper by taking the color of the background. For example, the interior designer has sublimated a corridor with a blue graphic wallpaper with a paint of the same color. With this tonal effect, the wallpaper seems to extend over the entire wall.
If you have basement moldings, it is possible too: remember to cover the lower part with paint and install the wallpaper in the upper part.
