Guest Powder Rooms are no longer boring
With an abundance of wallpaper on offer, the smallest room of your house can now shine. A Powder Room is an excellent place to have fun with design and colour.
Your Wallpaper choice can hide imperfections, add personality and can help to make the space seem bigger. On trend designs are tropical themes, stripes, geometrics, florals and even bold and colourful designs. You may like to also think about using smaller prints and textures for a simpler style.
Wallpaper Types are Non-Woven and Vinyl. Vinyl Wallpaper is the most popular choice for a Powder Room as it is Wipeable / Scrubbable. However, a Non-Woven Wallpaper can be coated with an appropriate Acrylic Sealant to protect the paper. Making it therefore Wipeable / Scrubbable as well. Therefore, giving you many more options and spoilt for choice.
Please consider where you are putting your wallpaper. After all it is still paper and we want to avoid as much splashes of water as much as possible to give you longevity. It's best to use above the sink tiles.
Another thing to consider when wallpapering your Powder Room is which wall or walls you want to paper. A common question we are often asked is do you paper a feature wall or all the walls? Your Wallpaper design choice and room will dictate. A small design or texture will suit a smaller space opening up the room. A large design can get lost when placed around the vanity, toilet, windows and door, but will be bold in colour and character.
You will need to consider the lighting in the room whether that be Natural or Artificial Lighting. Using a wallpaper with a Pearlescent or Metallic will highlight its design and also reflect light in the room. They also give you a touch of glamour and sophistication.
Wallpaper Design Options :
* Black and White is classic and dramatic, giving a timeless look.
* Tropical is vibrant and fun, but consider soft and neutral tones so not to overwhelm the space.
* Geometric patterns are modern and can be sophisticated. Circles and Curves will keep the space soft, whereas angles can be dramatic.
* Florals are truly elegant and fresh, ranging from traditional to modern.
* Coastal creates a fresh, open and very relaxed look.
* Vertical Stripes will draw your eye upward, making the room feel taller. Horizontal Stripes draws the eye across the wall and can make a room feel more spacious
* Dark Colours and Patterns will close in a room but will be dramatic and create a cozy room. Light Colours and Patterns will open up the room and feel more spacious.
* Textures are very complimentary to a room and subtle.
Wallpaper in a Powder Room isn’t just decoration—it’s an experience. The right wallpaper can transform a tiny space into a memorable impression that wows every guest. Your Interior Designer/Decorator can help you with wallpaper options to suit the space and your needs.
