When choosing wallpaper, there are several factors to consider in order to make sure you select the best option for your space. First, take into account the overall style and feel of the room.

How to Choose the Right Wallpaper

Do you want something that is bold and makes a statement, or something more subdued that complements the existing décor? Second, think about practicality how easy is it to remove and replace if you want to change things up down the road? And finally, don’t forget about the cost some wallpapers can be quite expensive, so be sure to set a budget before you start shopping.

The most common form of wallpaper is the paste-the-wall type, also known as wet strip. The paper backing is removed from the sticky side, and it is then pressed onto the wall using a tool with a blade in order to separate it from the backing.

A newer, and temporary type of wallpaper is Vinyl Wallpaper. Vinyl Wallpaper is the same concept as paste-the-wall wallpaper, but instead of a sticky backing, the vinyl is attached to the adhesive paper. The vinyl is then easily removed from the adhesive paper backing for repositioning and reapplying.

Vinyl is a much softer surface than paste-the-wall, which makes it easier on your walls. If you’re looking for wallpaper that’s easy to remove, consider vinyl. There are also peel-and-stick papers. Peel and stick paper is applied like paste-the-wall, but the backing is removed by hand. Unlike paste-the-wall wallpaper, peel and stick can be removed from the wall without damaging it.

Is there such a thing as the perfect wallpaper? Perfect Wallpaper comes down to personal preference. Some home renters and owners prefer classic, simple colors while others prefer big, bold, and differentiated patterns.

Wall space is a commodity in most homes and as more and more people spend more time in their homes working, it seems every room from their dining room to feature walls in their home offices is becoming more and more personalized.

Why Bother with Wallpaper?

Advantages: There are many advantages to using wallpaper instead of paint. Wallpaper is a lot easier to use than paint because there is no mixing, and the application can be done by hand with little or no mess.

Wallpaper is less expensive than paint, and it can be removed without damaging the walls. There are many different types of wallpaper available today.

The Many Benefits of Wallpaper

  • Appearance – Wallpaper is a good substitute for paint. It comes in many different patterns and designs, which can make a room more attractive.
  • Durability – Paint peels when it becomes old or if the walls become dirty. The wallpaper will not peel because it is made of vinyl, fiberglass, or other material that resists damage.
  • Easy to install – While Traditional Wallpaper is difficult to install, Vinyl Wallpaper is very easy to install. You can apply it yourself without the help of a professional or an expensive professional installation.

How to Pick the Right Pattern and Color?

The key to picking the right wallpaper is color. It’s tempting to pick a bold, bright pattern but you may want to start with something a bit more subtle and neutral. This will give your room enough of a focal point without overwhelming it.

When it comes to How to choose the right wallpaper, how do you approach choosing a pattern and color you’re going to love? Otto Studio has put together a few steps you can take to help your home in a style and theme that’s right for you.

Otto Studio Wallpaper is a startup by two Vancouver Women that is disrupting the Wallpaper Industry with bold Vinyl Wallpaper. If you aren’t sure of the wallpaper pattern you want to choose, they allow you to order samples on their website.

Bold patterns stand out and are noticed as soon as someone enters a room. Vertical patterns can change the perception of a wall’s height or width.

Small-scale patterns can be subtle and almost go unnoticed by the naked eye unless standing or sitting very close. All of that said, wallpaper design isn’t a new industry, but it definitely is an evolving one.

How to Hang Wallpaper Correctly

The best way to hang wallpaper is with a professional installation service. It’s not as easy as it looks. This is why new Vinyl Wallpaper is trending the way it is and so many people are choosing to use it in their homes, apartments, and condos.
