Wallpaper with geometric motifs

The beginning of decorative repair is always associated with the choice of material for wall decoration. Wallpapers are a familiar and one of the most favorite ways to make your home comfortable and attractive. Good wallpapers hide the irregularities of the walls, are easy to clean, and also do not require the master to be a high-class professional in order to make pasting. Stylish cloths with a geometric print are increasingly decorating the rooms of houses and apartments.

Geometry is always vibrant and dynamic. Such wallpaper is chosen by modern people with an active lifestyle. Romantic monograms and flowers may remain dreamy persons. But even such diametrically opposite prints have a lot in common. Despite the fact that geometric motifs do not have a semantic load and at first glance are very simple and concise, with large doses of the eye from such a pattern may be tired and even a feeling of irritation may appear.

The ideal option is to dilute the saturated geometry with a single-color companion. Undoubtedly, there are such canvases, which are allowed to paste over the entire room. They are distinguished by moderate colors, proximity to the classical canons of wall decoration (dull cage, stripes).

A more active print can be used without a companion in small rooms, for example, in the corridor, in the bathroom or toilet, in the dressing room or lobby of a country house. Thanks to some techniques, wallpaper with a geometric pattern can visually transform the room. For example, canvases with vertical stripes raise the ceiling, making the room higher, and horizontal elements (stripes or zigzags) expand the space.

Contrast print attracts attention, visually brings the wall on which it is placed, so the rectangular room can be transformed in sensations into a more square-shaped room. A large picture always makes a room smaller than it actually is. In a small space, choose a pattern with small elements.

Often on the pages of glossy magazines about the world of interior design there are rooms that are covered with Chevron wallpaper or in a simplified version - Zigzag and herringbone. This print is appropriate in any room at home and is very popular. In the living room it can be a monochrome pattern in black and white, in the bedroom - a pastel cream, beige color, and in the nursery it can consist of bright, rich colors.

Designers love this pattern for the fact that the "zigzag" is able to "break" the space. For example, pasting a room with wallpaper with a large chevron, the protrusions on the wall become almost invisible and merge, forming a flat surface. Of course, an active “zigzag” should be balanced with either a monotonous companion or other finishing material for the walls. Sometimes designers allow themselves combinations with striped wallpaper, but without extensive knowledge in this area, it is better not to risk it.

Diamonds just starting to gain popularity.

Execution may be different:

• straight thin lines forming bright multi-colored rhombi - great for children’s or eclectic interiors;
• options where one color is used, but in a different tonal range, suitable for high-tech style or minimalist interiors;
• the pastel combinations of rhombuses are ideal for adherents of the classics.

Another option for the design of an apartment in a classic style - wallpaper tartan. Such interiors can be seen in houses of the Victorian era. The small cell in deep red or green tones is perfectly combined with an abundance of wooden elements - wall panels or furniture attributes.

Vertical stripes pastel colors with silk-screen effect look stylish and luxurious at the same time. This design has an important advantage - striped walls attract attention, but not annoying. These wallpapers look great in a classic living room and office.

It is important to choose the correct width of the bands:

• very thin options may not be seen, merge, but at the same time look easy and airy;
• Wallpaper with wider stripes is better to choose the least contrasting colors, otherwise they will quickly begin to annoy;
• wide horizontal stripes are perfect for children and bedrooms. Such a pattern is able to calm and adjust to rest;
• unequal stripes look good in both horizontal and vertical design, bring creativity and diversity to the interior.

Look very noble canvases with quatrefoil pattern. This print is very popular not only in America, but also in Russia. Many users know it and love to use it not as dramatically as in the decoration of the walls. This pattern is almost universal. The choice of color depends on the style in which the interior should be designed further.

If it is pastel and deep colors, the pattern will be perfectly combined with the classic group of styles, and bright and clean shades (blue, yellow, orange) are able to support oriental themes in the interior.

Geometric ornament "meander" is an unbroken broken line. This pattern is very active, so it should be used carefully and in small quantities. As a rule, its purpose in decorating walls is the design of joints between two types of combinable wallpaper. In this case, it is a bright and contrasting element. However, there are whole canvases with the “meander” pattern.

A little naive looks on the walls polka dot print. This pattern is best suited for the nursery or the room of a young girl.

Due to the fact that this picture is really very simple, it can easily be pasted over in the whole room or harmoniously coexist with almost any other geometry, designed in the same color scheme. Larger options for circles can be hung in the living room or bedroom.

3D wallpaper - This is an unusual way of decorating walls, which so far only begins to appear in the interiors of apartments and houses. The use of such paintings is very difficult because the effect is visible only in large rooms and only at a certain distance. Near the same effect dissolves and the coating is no different from conventional photo wallpaper. But fantasy drawings weight: volumetric cubes, hexagons, rectangles, volumetric imitations of brickwork, balls floating in the air and many other options.

The interior is always a combination of all the attributes of furniture and decoration, made in one stylistic idea. Geometry is often quite a contrast and aggressive basis for the room.If in the living room this model can be supported, add furniture with straight lines, pick up a chandelier with metal elements, then in the bedroom it is better to soften the situation, adding textile attributes and more curved shapes to it.

Often in the interiors use a black and white gamut for geometric wallpaper. Often the classic combination looks modern and dynamic.

Mix different ornaments on the curtains, upholstery and on the walls is not worth it. It is better to limit to one element containing the geometry. However, in some cases, for example, when there are stripes on the walls, the geometric patterns perfectly coexist with the floral print on the curtains. The main thing is to withstand all the elements in one color.

Wide stripes or chevron, made in pastel color, can coexist with furniture, draped fabric with a pattern of "quatrefoil" or curtains with the motif "meander". Such combinations can often be found in classic American homes. In order not to be mistaken, pick up plain textiles to match the wallpaper.

3D wallpaper allows you to feel the incredible dynamics of immersion in another space. The print with stripes that twist into a spiral-shaped tunnel is very strong and sharp. Such an experiment may seem interesting and mysterious, but it should be borne in mind that this pattern will stay with you on the walls of your apartment for a long time.

A large chevron in the bedroom in pastel colors is diluted with a soft textile headboard and curved decorative elements at the bedside tables. Because of this, the zigzag wall sharp corners do not seem so aggressive.

Bright diamonds most relevant will look like an active accent on the wall. The area behind the sofa is the best arrangement of colorful paintings, as when watching TV or relaxing in front of you there will be a quieter space.

A geometric print does not have to consist of small, repeating elements of the pattern. Sometimes geometry is one large accent pattern.

If there are niches in the room, protruding elements or columns, you can select them with wallpaper with geometry. Experimenting with the combination is possible in one color.
