1. Geometric
Geometric designs bring interest to your space, while maintaining a clean and simple look. Having geometric wallpaper in your home office can create a stylish backdrop for your many Zoom meetings. These designs also look great in kitchens and bathrooms.
Pro Tip: Use a light neutral paint color for the remaining walls in the room. This helps prevent your space looking busy or overbearing.
Nature
Nature designs, specifically foliage patterns, have been very popular this year. Using this wallpaper paired with an earthy color scheme gives off a relaxed, yet worldly vibe. These designs are best used in living rooms and bedrooms.
Pro Tip: Design with different textured pieces such as macrame, leather, and rattan for a trendy bohemian look.
Art Deco
Many people have been bringing the Art Deco style of the 1920’s back in 2020. These patterns are similar to the geometric designs, but with a vintage flair. This is a good choice if you are looking to add an air of sophistication to your space. Think of Art Deco for your dining room, home office, or sitting room.
Pro Tip: Add metallic accents to transform your space into a modern day Gatsby mansion.
Textural
Many people have been bringing the Art Deco style of the 1920’s back in 2020. These patterns are similar to the geometric designs, but with a vintage flair. This is a good choice if you are looking to add an air of sophistication to your space. Think of Art Deco for your dining room, home office, or sitting room.
Pro Tip: Have a dark paint color like Sherwin-Williams Naval that you love, but don’t want your space to look gloomy? Add a light textural accent wall to brighten it up!
Mural
Mural wallpaper for the slightly more daring wallpaper enthusiast. However, this can be the perfect way to fill up a large wall that you have been struggling to design. You don’t have to worry about finding the perfect wall art, because suddenly the whole wall is a piece of art. Try this in any gathering room in your home. For example, the living room or dining room.
Pro Tip: Keep furniture and decor simple and let the mural be the focal point of the room. Your guests will be immediately intrigued!
