The styling method to supplement wallpaper

Combining wallpaper, artwork, textures, and decorative accents might seem excessive, yet there is a method to the madness. For cohesion that flows from colour to mood, consider these tips.

Textures: Introduce varying textures to invite depth and dimension.

Timber sand ottoman, Nood.
Earth Green splash lidded jar, Naibu.

Artwork: To anchor wallpaper, hang art, but don’t overdo it. Frames with negative space and borders harmonise easier with pattern.

Flower Market Porto framed print, Image Vault.
At The Bach art print, Glenn Jones Art.
Springer On Blue framed print, Early Settler.

Neutrals: Balance a busy wallpaper with neutrals and natural elements, preventing your wallpaper from dominating or overwhelming the room.

Wisteria table lamp, OneWorld.
Sanseviera potted plant, Freedom.

 

Theme: Wallpapers work best when theming is done right – use cushions and decorative elements that match the aesthetic.

Bow Ivory cushion, Adairs.
Lake Hayes Lumbar cushion, CC Interiors.
Mable Natural Floral cushion, Adairs.
