From ancient frescoes to modern ways of decorating walls, aesthetics have changed many times.
Walls as works of art
Now the main criterion is beauty and comfort. However, the simplicity of the formulation implies a very hard work.
Painstaking robot when decorating walls
In modern wall design, there are many techniques and trends. Forms have become more complex, work with the material, and we have become more demanding. If earlier, having started repairing, we invited plasterer, now we call designers and artists. Although there are methods to give free rein and their imagination. But first things first.
Unleash your imagination
Wall design begins with preparation. I do not advise saving here, because it depends on what, in the end, you will succeed and how long it will last. There are three golden rules for preparing walls for further work:
- Align.
- Primed.
- Putty.
Level, zashpaklyuyte, ground
If you follow them and entrust the work to the master - you will be provided with an excellent result.
Wallpapers - modern classics of the genre
There are main types of decorative walls:
- Wallpaper, wallpapers.
- The panels.
- Ceramic tile.
- Drapery fabric.
- Decorative plaster and paint.
Choose the material for your room
Consider in detail each item. Decorating walls with wallpaper. This option can vary from relatively cheap to very expensive. There is a choice for any wealth.
Decorating walls with wallpaper
It all depends on the quality of the source material. Simple paper wallpapers are already a thing of the past. Dense, washable vinyl, non-woven with an interesting texture or silkscreen confidently push them out of the market. Modern wallpaper has a high wear resistance and the broadest palette of color and artistic performance.
Choose quality raw materials
In modern wall design wallpaper is most often used for zoning rooms and to create a warm, cozy atmosphere. Zoning corrects the space and, using wallpaper of different shades, you can select one zone and “hide” another.
The wall, free from furniture, is decorated with wallpaper with a bright print, and the rest of the walls are made of solid colors. This way of pasting can be used throughout the room or in a separate part of it.
Zoning premises using wallpaper
If you want to somehow stylize the “main” wall - select photowall-paper with a picture corresponding to the general interior. Manufacturers offer a lot of options for photo wallpaper design.At home, you can be on the ocean, in the mountains or in the garden of paradise with exotic plants.

Laminated panels - the most unpretentious of all. They are very aesthetic, their surface is treated in such a way that the dust simply does not linger on them, it is enough to wipe with a damp cloth. Another plus is easy and quick installation. Such panels will serve you for a very long time.

The panels of natural wood emphasize the nobility and elegance of the interior. Made of fine wood and can be decorated with gold leaf, mirror inserts or colored lacquer. Perfectly fit into a classic interior. Very presentable, but also very expensive.
I must say that all types of wall panels have one drawback. They do not tolerate moisture or high humidity.
Combination of panels with other materials
Ceramic tile. Glossy Exquisite

Draperies fabric known for a long time, but only the palace nobility could afford it. Now everything is more democratic. Drapery is used to design bedrooms and living rooms. Like any other finish, drapery fabric has advantages and disadvantages.
Drapery fabric in the interior of the bedroom
I would consider environmental friendliness, simple installation, good noise absorption and the ability to avoid time-consuming and expensive work to level the walls as big advantages. If the advantages of this decor are unambiguous, then the disadvantages are a big question.
Environmentally friendly and easy installation
Fabric is undoubtedly more expensive than wallpaper, but if you compare the complexity of installation - wallpaper will lose. The service life of drapery is less than that of wallpaper, but due to the tricks of installation (when the fabric can be removed, washed and hung back), it will serve no less.
Or, they say that the fabric attracts dust. But now fabrics for decorating walls are soaked with special solutions that make it resistant to dust and dirt.
