Why pay attention to the choice of wallpaper for entrance halls?
The appearance of the walls determines the visual impact of the interior, allowing guests and owners to feel comfortable and enjoy the original composition of the design. If you decide to buy wallpaper for the entrance hall, it must match the general style, match the shade of the furniture and decorations, and be durable and long-lasting enough. Lack of attention during the supply phase can lead to
- unreasonable increases in costs for the renovation of the entrance hall:
- visually making the space seem narrower;
- creating an unpleasant atmosphere - as happens when using dark wallpaper or photo wallpaper on several walls at once;
- room zoning failures;
- the rapid deterioration of the aesthetics of the coatings and the need for another renovation;
- unevenness and other imperfections of the substrate;
- difficulties with arranging objects - think ahead of time about what and where you will sit and use this as a basis for choosing wall coverings, especially when using 3D wallpaper.
Unsuccessful combinations of colors and textures should also be avoided. Separately, the wallpaper for the corridor can look amazing, but after gluing there will be a visual dissonance, which will have to be corrected somehow (usually it ends with the replacement of some type of cloth).
In order not to regret the purchase and wallpapering of the walls, the smallest details should be taken into account when choosing wallpaper for the entrance hall:
- The size and shape of the room, as well as the arrangement;
- General color scheme;
- The chosen interior design style;
- The desired visual effect of the transformation;
- Performance requirements for corridor coverage;
- Personal preferences and budget.
Varieties of wallpaper for entrance halls
Specialized stores offer customers a wide range of wallpaper for walls, and each of them has certain advantages and disadvantages. You need to find out the characteristics of fabrics in advance, paying attention, first of all, to practical properties, otherwise you risk buying a fashionable wallpaper for the corridor, which in a year will lose its original aesthetics due to dirt or surface damage.
The ideal option will be one that has acceptable performance characteristics, an original appearance and an acceptable cost.
Let's understand what types of wallpaper are on the market and how they differ from each other:
1. Vinyl wallpaper is the most popular solution, which is not surprising, because it is very durable, can withstand moisture, temperature changes and impacts. In the tapete.ro catalog there is the original wallpaper with imitations of concrete, natural stone and decorative plaster. However, it is more difficult to glue than the others, and the walls will not breathe afterwards.
2. Paper-based wallpaper it enjoys a combination of aesthetics, low costs and respect for the environment, but it deteriorates easily if it is not protected from moisture and mechanical factors, therefore it is rarely used in hallways (usually as a temporary option before the planned renovation with 1 -2 years later).
3. Fleece wallpaper it cannot boast of high strength and a variety of textures like vinyl, but they have good air permeability, moderate cost and high durability.
4. Textile wall papers they are highly decorative, but also very deceptive, forgetting to clean them a few times and they can start to look out of place. Another disadvantage is the high price.
5. motif it is the most modern method of decoration, which is attractive because it can make a lasting impression on visitors and at the same time hide the flaws in the room (small dimensions, low ceilings, lack of natural light, uneven surfaces). Plants, mountains, landscapes, sea creatures, cityscapes and architectural landmarks will all look good. The color of the wallpaper in the corridor should not be too dark, so options with the night sky or outer space are better to reject.
Choosing wallpaper for different types of hallways
Surface, shape, degree of illumination – these are the main parameters to start from when looking for wallpaper. Here are some suggestions on how to change different types of hallways:
- Beige, milky, blue and white wallpaper looks best in a small hallway;
- For large hallways, warm colors such as gold, light brown and peach are the right choice; they add a cozy touch to the space and are best achieved using boring wallpaper and light plinths as a point of attraction;
- A dark hallway can be presented in white if you are ready to frequently wash the walls or opt for a combined option using neutral tones (lavender, pearl, light purple), and for lighting install floor lamps or sconces;
- An open hallway can be very well complemented by photo wallpaper, placed on the wall farthest from the door, and the main part can be made monochrome, choosing the color of peach, sand, soft pink or blue, depending on the visual accent of the color scheme in the interior .
Tips for choosing the best wallpaper for the entrance hall
Here are some tips that will help you make the right decision and make the entrance area of your home both functional and expressive:
- Most hallways do not have strong light, so dark tones should be used with caution in finishing;
- With the help of wall coverings, the dimensions of the room can be changed. Wallpaper for entrance halls is used in cold shades, while variations in warmer tones help to narrow the room and create a cozy atmosphere;
- People walk into this room from the street, so the wallpaper in the hall it must be resistant to moisture, dust and all kinds of dirt. Washable fabrics are available for easy maintenance and are specifically labeled on the rolls;
- Small hallways look great with a combination of wallpaper, where darker colors (brown, charcoal gray or navy blue) are pasted below and lighter colors above.
