Fashion trends and interior solutions 2017

2017 declares the ideas of diversity and variety of finishes. This does not mean a wide selection of materials, but a large number of shades, textures, scales, palettes. Consider the latest trends in the world of trellis design, which will be relevant:

1. Boring plain canvas is no longer in demand. The trend is various complex patterns, embossed surface and even embroidery. You can find the right option for any style.
2. To decorate the walls, you can use gentle light shades, and flashy bright colors. The choice of colors depends on the overall concept of the apartment. At the same time, in each room one direction should follow (from restrained to catchy ideas).
3. For monophonic and combined trellis, oriental and African themes prevail, complemented by decorative elements. Actual ethnic motifs, exotic options. It can be different ornaments, contours, drawings, hieroglyphs, etc.
4. When developing the concept of an apartment and choosing trellis it is necessary to adhere to the thematic focus. Classical, Romanesque and Roman styles have not lost their relevance. Also high-tech, minimalist and modern styles remain fashionable this year.

7. Creative solutions and extraordinary developments continue to gain leading positions. Tapestries with 3D effect, bulky photo wallpapers were recently used in modernity, but today they are relevant for different ideas and design styles.

Tip:  when planning the design of the premises, take into account the general style. Develop one concept, choose in which style you are going to design an apartment, which trends you want to apply. From a given direction, think over all the details, from the preparation of finishing materials to the decor.

Wallpaper Design: Mix Effect

This year, the effect of combining trellises is spreading. The application of this technique allows you to highlight and emphasize important details, to make the room complete for perception. In addition, the price of such finishes will be lower, since it is possible to combine expensive and cheap trellises, while focusing on expensive options.

But finding the right connection that will harmonize with each other and with the overall interior of the room is not easy. Before making your choice, read the advice of specialists, view popular photos, find out which compounds are in demand and relevant in 2017. There are several mixing methods:

1. The selection of one element of the room, its significant part. To do this, three walls are glued with one type of trellis, and the fourth with another, more expressive, contrasting. A certain background is created that plays a key role in the visualization of space, while certain objects are highlighted - a TV, a picture, a fireplace, a chair or other elements.
2. Asymmetry effect. At the first stage, the room is glued with one type of trellis, less saturated and expressive. Then, in the center of one wall and along the edges of the opposite, another type of wallpaper is glued, contrasting and clear. A similar technique visually enlarges a room, making it spacious and full.

Tip. In order to visually increase the room, it is recommended to use cold shades as contrasting trellises. The fact is that a person perceives such colors further than he actually is.

1. Contrast inserts. The essence of this method is to apply geometric shapes or ornaments of other trellis to a too long monotonous wall. Such tactics are used to give the appearance of cheap products, caskets. In the interior, inexpensive expressive tapestries can be applied with bright expressive inserts that will radically change the general appearance of the room. Moreover, this method is relevant for the design of the hall, and how.
2. Mosaic effect. This methodology is not suitable for every room. But with the right combination, it will create an unusual, original and creative style. The essence of the method lies in the mosaic gluing of various trellises. If you want to reproduce a similar effect, choose a unifying factor so that all the elements harmonize with each other, and the overall appearance does not look too archaic.

Wall mural: everything is new - well-forgotten old

Wall murals seem to have lost their relevance long ago. However, now they are already loudly declaring themselves, showing novelty and creativity. Please note the skeptics - modern wallpaper  significantly differ from annoying Soviet options both in terms of quality and variety. Computer technology allows you to create real masterpieces that will take you to an exotic country or fill with the brightness of natural gifts.

You can purchase one of the proposed options or order on an individual project (for example, with a picture of your favorite photo, exquisite landscape or your favorite movie hero).

For Egyptian, Arabic, African and Chinese styles, photos of various palm trees, dunes, plants are suitable. To design a teenager’s room, you can enter abstractions, space elements, fragments of street blocks.

Photowall-paper with elements of architecture can be safely called a work of design art. They give the room a luxury, transfer to a particular country, nourish the spirit of history. The majestic statue of liberty, the incredible Leaning Tower of Pisa, the indefatigable Big Ben, the endless canals of Venice, the ancient Roman quarters and much more can be embodied in your modest room. At the same time, the choice of plots and ideas has no boundaries, and some drawings can make the room more spacious and bright.

Fashionable colors

One of the popular decisions of 2017 is a neutral palette - delicate pastel, modest beige. At the same time, modest shades create the basis for a complex design solution, decor elements, contrasting inserts. Excellent on a plain light canvas look photos in frames, lamps. The design shows a trend in combinations of white and black, green, emerald tones.

Glamorous shine made adjustments to the overall perception of space. What changes do you want to make: palace luxury, gallant chic, catchy personality with a touch of piquancy and eccentricity? All these qualities can be given using trellises with the effect of gilding or silver.

Tip. When choosing a color scheme, it is not necessary to follow all the trends of the current year. First of all, start from the size of the room, its location. To design a hall located on the south side, you can choose cold dark shades and, conversely, warm colors are relevant for the north side.

When choosing, you can buy deep and rich options for trellis, pale pastel colors. But the main mistake in creating a harmonious interior is the wrong combination of shades. All details should be harmoniously combined among themselves.

Good taste, styling and moderation will never go out of style. Regardless of the choice and combination of wallpaper, consider the rest of the interior. Decide on the overall style and try to convey the main idea in the elements of decoration.

Do not forget that trellis is an excellent method of masking wall imperfections and correcting space. After repair, all defects must be eliminated, and the room must be transformed.

We live in a time of rapid development of technology and design. Therefore, we can quite afford the wallpaper, which will give the walls a look of marble, leather, stone, wood, tile or other expressive coating. An ideal choice for creating a unique interior!

It is extremely difficult to imagine a modern room in which wallpaper would not be used as a finishing material. The history of wallpaper design dates back many years and during this time, in addition to the simplest paper version of this finishing material, many variations of the use of various raw materials to create original, textured, textile, washable and other models have appeared. When a modern homeowner gets into the store of finishing materials, it’s time to get confused by the vastness of the assortment - paper, vinyl, non-woven, textile, from cork and papyrus, burlap and with metallized elements, liquid and glass. Let's take a look together - for which rooms to choose one or another type of wallpaper, and what designers advise in the upcoming season.

Types of wallpaper depending on the material of manufacture

Paper

This type of wallpaper appeared long ago and does not lose its popularity, first of all, because of cheapness. You can easily re-wallpaper wallpapers in rooms at least every year if you use paper-based products. Unfortunately, at the low cost of the material, the benefits of this type of wallpaper end. Paper products cannot be washed, they can be torn easily enough during repair, as well as being already on the walls. Of course, such wallpapers are suitable only for rooms with low humidity and pollution levels - bedrooms, offices and living rooms.

Single-layer paper wallpapers are called simplex, and double-layer wallpapers are called duplex. Duplex wallpapers are slightly more durable products - in the production process two layers of paper, one of which with the decor, are glued together. Duplex wallpapers are more popular - they can hide defects in the surface of the walls, are simple sticker and subsequent removal.

Vinyl

Vinyl wallpapers are much stronger, more durable than paper, in addition, they can withstand moisture, which means they are suitable for decoration kitchen facilities, hallways and even bathrooms. Vinyl products can be created on a paper or non-woven basis with a PVC coating. This type of wallpaper costs significantly more than paper, but the cost is depreciated due to a sufficiently long service life.

In turn, hot stamping vinyl wallpapers can be divided into different kinds - heavy ones are great for masking wall irregularities, compact vinyl (foamed wallpaper) can imitate various surfaces and be embossed, silk-screened wallpapers have an original texture, but need preliminary preparation of glued planes.

Vinyl wallpaper can be found in the decoration of the kitchen and even the bathroom, because this material does not fade under the influence of sunlight and can withstand cleaning, wet cleaning. Such wallpapers can be glued in the hallways, where the level of surface contamination is quite high.

The production of modern vinyl wallpapers allows you to create the smallest micropores on the surface of the product, which allows the upper layer of material to “breathe”.

Non-woven

This type of wallpaper can consist entirely of non-woven fabric, or a combination of non-woven fabric and PVC film. Flizelin is a non-woven material based on cellulose fibers, this raw material is much stronger and more durable than paper.

Non-woven wallpaper is not only durable, but also resistant to abrasion, found both with a printed pattern, and can be used for painting. But for gluing this type of wallpaper it is necessary to use special glue. Although the sticker process itself is very convenient - the adhesive is applied to the walls, and the canvas itself remains dry. Which significantly reduces the risk of tearing the base and erasing the top layer of the decor.

Liquid

This original type of finish, which is a powder that must be diluted independently in water, can become a highlight of the interior. Such a powder consists of cellulose and cotton fibers, glue, and dyes. One of the most important characteristics and at the same time an important advantage is a seamless surface. The process of “pasting” is more like painting, because liquid wallpaper is applied with a roller.

Textile

This type of wallpaper is a combination of a paper or non-woven backing with a textile canvas. As the top layer can be used flax, cotton, viscose and even velvet. In addition to the fact that this type of wallpaper is environmentally friendly and easily breathes, the material has much higher noise insulation properties than ordinary paper wallpapers.

But textile wallpaper has its drawbacks, among which, in addition to high cost, there are low dirt-repellent properties. Textile wallpapers are not wet cleaned, they can only be vacuumed and wiped with a dry cloth. Textile wallpapers look especially advantageous in bedrooms, where you can give free rein to imagination and use, for example, velor wallpapers with velvety decor on a paper basis.

Metallized

Such wallpapers are distinguished by the presence of gilding or silvering in the decor. These are dense products that can hide surface imperfections that do not fade in the sun and at the same time bring luxury and elegance to any interior. These wallpapers look great in bedrooms and living rooms, large offices or home libraries.

Wallpaper with gilded or silver print elements of the decorative surface is not cheap, so they are most often used to design one of the walls of the room, to create a luxurious and yet sophisticated accent.

Color palette and variety of prints

An extensive assortment of wallpapers of various colors and textures makes many homeowners who plan to repair be confused in hardware stores. But there are a number of color combinations, prints, ornaments and drawings that are at the peak of popularity right now.

Wallpaper with photo printing

The so-called photowall-paper has been known to our compatriots since the “dashing nineties”, when it was fashionable to use this type of decoration to design an accent wall - landscapes with waterfalls and birches were present in every second Russian apartment. Nowadays, the quality of the material has changed, and the storyline of the drawings has undergone changes.

Photo printing can be applied on paper, non-woven and even textile basis. The most popular drawings these days are an imitation of the appearance of bookshelves and shelving.

Plant drawing - always popular

Since ancient times, people liked to decorate their homes with wallpaper with floral patterns - flowers and twigs, leaves and fantasy compositions not only brought color diversity to the design of the room, but also brought the atmosphere of the room closer to nature.

It's no secret that wallpaper with a large floral pattern is suitable only for spacious rooms. And small bouquets or a small print can visually increase a small space.

Floral wallpaper looks great in the bedroom. In order not to overload the decoration of the room for sleeping and relaxing with a large pattern, use plain wallpaper for wall decoration, and products with a pattern for an accent surface behind the head of the bed. The interior will be harmonious if it is possible to repeat the print of the wallpaper or part of it in the textile of decorative pillows, window drapery elements or carpet.

A large floral print will look advantageous in a spacious room - a dining room, bedroom or living room as an accent wall decoration or the entire space (depending on the size of the room and the color of the furniture).

Wallpaper with a floral pattern in bright colors can decorate any interior - from classic to modern. It is important not to overdo it with the use of a large pattern in rooms with colorful furniture - an accent wall with a floral print will be the best option.

Black and white print - mainstream of modern design

Black and white combinations, often diluted with gray, are becoming increasingly popular for decorating rooms with different functional purposes. Bedrooms and living rooms, cabinets and dining rooms look great with contrasting combinations in decoration. Using a black and white wallpaper pattern to highlight an accent wall will be popular for many more years, you can be sure that the design of the room will remain relevant until the next renovation.

With the help of black and white wallpaper with a pattern, you can achieve the original design of utilitarian premises - bathrooms, laundries and even bathrooms. The combination of snow-white plumbing, dark elements of decoration or furniture and a black and white print of wallpaper create a very harmonious image of space.

A large black and white drawing on the accent wall is suitable for decorating a spacious living room. Upholstered furniture with bright upholstery and colorful decor items are perfect for a room with a similar finish. The resulting image of the room will be modern, interesting and dynamic.

Black-and-white print on wallpaper can be used even in children's rooms. If the product picture is presented in an interesting topic for the child - animals, cars, heroes of fairy tales or cartoons, then in combination with bright furniture, decor and textiles, you can get an original, mysterious and creative design of a room for a kid, preschool child or teenager.

Neutral colors - calm atmosphere of the room

Many homeowners prefer an unobtrusive, neutral palette for decorating rooms with a variety of practical purposes. Living rooms and bedrooms, cabinets and dining rooms are papered in gray tones - the most popular color of our time. Many designers like to repeat that "gray is the new white for interior decoration." This can be either wallpaper with a geometric or floral print, or products with fancy patterns. Wallpaper can be smooth or convex, their main feature is the unobtrusive neutrality of the color palette.

Wallpaper with a picture, but in a calm, pastel palette is great for decorating nurseries and rooms for newborns. A neutral, peaceful palette will create a favorable atmosphere for reassuring parents, which means that the baby, feeling their mood, will be pleased with life and relaxed.

Natural shades have always been popular for room decoration. Light chocolate, cocoa with milk, neutral ocher and sand, milk and a shade of faded grass are win-win options for those who do not want to risk the atmosphere created by the premises.

Bright wallpapers - an interesting image of the room

Wallpaper with a bright pattern can be used not only for the design of accent surfaces. Even small spaces can be pasted over with colorful wallpapers, it all depends on the size of the print and the selected color palette.

For the bedroom, it is also possible to use a bright color of the pattern on the wallpaper. In order not to raise the degree of the emotional component of the atmosphere of the room at times when you need to calm down and prepare for bed, use bright wallpaper as a finish on the accent wall behind the head of the bed.

Geometric pattern - finish for all time

The geometric print on the walls brings originality, structuredness and a touch of modernity to the decoration of the room and the interior. Depending on the pattern used, you can create original optical illusions. Using the strip, we visually push the space in different directions. Smooth lines of circles add smoothness to the image of the room. Geometric compositions on the wallpaper can become the highlight of the interior.

Most people doing repairs ask themselves - what wallpapers are now in fashion in 2017, photo wallpapers?

If before people were only interested in new trends in clothes and hairstyles, now this also applies to other areas of human life, because in the modern world people are often preoccupied with issues of trend and fashion. Let's try to note the freshest and boldest trends of this season.

Wallpaper Style

Let's leave the classics in the past year. The English rigor and mystery of old France has already managed to really get bored. Pay attention to something bolder and simpler. And remember, everything new is well forgotten old. The motto of this spring: "A new life for old things."

The emphasis is on even textures, let the wallpaper repeat the interior decoration style of the houses of the wild west or will meet the standards of fashionable country. For thin and vulnerable people, you can offer to issue a room in the style of shabby chicthat breathes the atmosphere of post-war America.

Wallpaper should choose a gentle pastel shades, without brightness. The presence of an unobtrusive floral pattern, a garden with songbirds and angels is welcome. The print should be pale, as if faded and worn. Shops offer a wide selection of wallpapers that meet all the requirements of the style of shabby chic.

If the floral pattern does not seem too suitable for you, then you can choose a wallpaper with many vertical pale lines, alternating in a certain color scheme.

The mix of African and Eastern cultures is growing in popularity.

Ethnic African patterns can be combined with the mystery of the east. Let the selected wallpaper shout about its belonging to a certain style, and the surrounding interior elements will dilute this idea. This design will look great in living rooms and halls. Such a trend is for the most daring, but he certainly will not leave indifferent guests.

Wallpaper texture

And what wallpapers in fashion 2016 regarding texture? This season, natural textures are relevant, let the wallpaper resemble a stone or a cut of wood. Wall decoration with wallpaper imitating brickwork, still remains a good solution. This design technique has a lot of fans, but it does not diminish comfort, unlike decorating with brick tiles.

A perfectly smooth wall texture is acceptable if you decide to choose a wallpaper.

Wallpaper Material

Wallpaper material can be anything, but you should pay attention to the novelty of this season - metallic wallpaper. They themselves will be a bright accent of the room, which require subsequent minimalism in everything. They should be used very carefully, because there is a risk of “dressing” the living space too elaborate. Naturalism trends suggest using wallpaper made from natural materials, such as bamboo and cork. For connoisseurs of convenience, you can offer glass. This is a very durable material, which is suitable for non-residential premises, for example, the kitchen-living room, because the surface of the wallpaper can be cleaned of dirt.

Out of trend

It’s not worth gluing wallpaper on the ceiling, this season has left this technique, which is not surprising, because it is absolutely impractical. Complex geometric patterns are also worth leaving in the past. Also try to avoid dark, gloomy tones.

Fashion is very changeable and inconsistent, so you should not blindly follow its trends, if the trend has not sunk into the soul for the present. Just try to look for some wallpaper in the fashion of 2017 photos and you will see that interior design is just a fantasy flight! Repair in the house is not an element of clothing that can be changed at any time, the choice of wallpaper and interior style should be approached very meaningfully. What difference does it make that is now in fashion if it is not pleasing to the eye.

We all follow fashion. At least in order to declare that it is not interesting to us. The world of interiors also has its own trends, new products and current models. Today we’ll try to make a digest of fashionable wallpapers in 2016.

Designers of leading world brands of wallpaper manufacturers, like fashion designers, create new collections of wall coverings every year. But the interior fashion is not updated so quickly - you won’t be able to re-glue the wallpaper every year - it is fraught with the fact that you will constantly live in a state of repair. Let's try to figure out what “fashion wallpaper” means.

Is there a fashion for wallpaper?

Those who want to be on the crest of a fashion wave may have to upset: the concept of “fashionable novelties” was invented by marketers to increase sales. People make their choice on the basis of “like-dislike”, and convince the buyer that fashionable photo murals with a panorama of Niagara Falls are very suitable for classic style  in the interior, it is possible only if the consumer has no taste.

The choice of the type of wall covering or the type and pattern, if it comes to wallpaper, depends primarily on the interior style used and the concept that is formed during the design of the room. Wall decoration is a naturally occurring continuation of the entire design, and not something separate and independent.

Tip. When choosing a wallpaper, be guided by common sense and your own taste. Most often, wall coverings with an active pattern or “vyrviglaznogo” color after a short time begin to tire their owners. It is more practical to have walls of background, neutral shades, and to place bright accents with what can be easily replaced if you get tired. For example, paintings, decorative panels or posters.

From the history of wallpaper

Rather, we can talk about the latest in the field of technology for the manufacture of finishing materials. At the dawn of its history, the wallpaper was fabric, and the walls were chained with them, hence the name came from. Tapestries and trellises were used as wall decor. Workshops manufacturing trellis were called wallpaper. In the Baroque and Rococo era, leather wallpapers with skillful decoration and embossing appeared and became popular. With the development of the paper industry, paper wallpapers familiar to us appeared. Although in China and Japan - hand-painted paper wallpapers are a traditional material for wall decoration.

Today, industry allows the use of a variety of materials and technologies for the production of decorative wall coverings: vinyl, non-woven (non-woven), and fiberglass appeared. They differ in the method of decoration:

• embossed;
• sprayed with a pile or fiber;
• with a metallized coating;
• using fluorescent (visible in the dark) paints;
• with LEDs incorporated into the wallpaper structure, which are switched on from the remote control.

But despite technological innovations, in modern interiors there is a place for paper wallpaper, and textile, and leather. Moreover, there are collections of premium-class wallpapers, in the decor of which designers imitate old patterns of drawings and the type of material, familiar to us from childhood on the decoration of our parents' apartments. That same yellowish-grayish rough paper and motifs typical of Soviet apartments.

There are real extremes - connoisseurs of vintage style who pick up or buy old wallpaper from dismantling, by complex and time-consuming manipulations clean them from the accumulations of time and use them as decoration material in modern interiors.

Fashionable Wallpaper Drawings

From the above it follows that it is difficult to determine fashionable patterns or patterns for wallpaper this season. Companies engaged in the production of high-end wallpapers for more than a dozen years, carefully preserve their traditions and use designs developed over many years in their products, very carefully introducing new items in drawings and colors. Manufacturers of wallpaper in a lower class - for the general public, on the contrary, strive to impress the consumer with colorful prints.

Designers who develop wallpaper designs are inspired in their work by what surrounds them, thus responding to fashion trends. What inspires artists?

• Natural motives  - Flowers have always been and will be popular as a pattern of fabric or wallpaper designs. Traditional floral ornamental compositions "Damascus" are appropriate in the interiors of classicism, baroque. Naturalistic images of flowers will fit perfectly into, flowers based on Japanese or Chinese painting - for.

• Paisley  - East or Indian cucumber. Traditional motif for indian, persian or turkish patterns. It looks like a leaf roofing felts with a bent tip, roofing felts with a tail. The space bounded by the “drop” is also filled with patterns. This pattern is suitable for Indian or colonial interiors, as well as for vintage style. Hippie fans will also like it.

Indian Cucumber Pattern

• Argyle  - a pattern consisting of rhombuses of two or three colors. Over the colored rhombuses, a grid of rhombuses is superimposed. This is a traditional English pattern, so it looks organically in Victorian interiors or in rooms in the English spirit.

Argyle Pattern

• Tartan  - Another ornament for fans of prim England is a traditional Scottish cage.

Tartan Ornament

•   - the pattern is made up of semicircles partially overlapping each other, like fish scales. The pattern is suitable in a modern interior style contemporary.

• Crucifer or quatrefoil. The rhythmic combination of motifs composed of four circles in the form of a flower with four petals at the same time. It can bring harmony of orderliness into the interior, or vice versa, swiftness. A slightly modified pattern - with the addition of right angles, this pattern is similar to Moroccan motifs.

Crucifer

•   - strips of different thicknesses - classic wallpaper pattern. It is good in itself, and in combination with patterned stripes. Perhaps the stripes are suitable for any interior - it is only important to choose the right color, width and pattern repetition.

• Lattice - also a classic wallpaper pattern. The pattern can be different - from simple rhombuses or cages, to patterns resembling forged lace fences.

Lattice Ornament

Tip: When choosing a wallpaper with an ornament, consider the size of the room. A very large picture in a small room will be lost - it will be difficult to consider. And the abundance of lines of poorly readable drawing will make a small room even smaller, “cluttering” it.

Traditionally, the wallpaper pattern has a rapport pattern - repeating at a certain interval, pattern. But today there are wallpapers that make up a composite drawing on the entire wall. Wide-format printing technologies allow you to transfer any photo image to the wallpaper material. Such wallpaper options will well decorate modern styles: minimalism, contemporary.

Attention! If you are planning to use the murals in the interior, carefully approach the choice of image. The bright colors of a color photograph or a disproportionate scale may look good in a small format, but will unpleasantly hit you when you are the size of a wall.

How to use wallpaper in the interior

Wallpaper pattern should match the style of the interior and its scale. If you decide to choose a wallpaper with a large pattern, perhaps you should not paste over the entire room with them. Choose a view wall or wall, and cover the rest with wallpaper with a calmer pattern. In the collections of manufacturers there are options that are ideally suited to each other: drawings-partners.

In addition to the option to decorate with a wallpaper with an active pattern one, the most important room for the appearance, there are also ways to use wallpaper. You can combine two types of patterns by combining them horizontally. The junction is usually made out with a curb. Horizontal division of the wall can be done at different heights - the decorative effect will depend on this.

Wallpaper with partner pictures can be alternated vertically: a strip of one kind, then a strip of another. In this case, a more active pattern can occupy one strip, and a quiet one - two or three, depending on the size of the wall.

Highlighting accent walls using wallpaper with drawings

Do not forget that the wallpaper should be combined with textiles - curtains, upholstery of sofas and armchairs, decorative pillows. Wallpaper manufacturers offer fabrics suitable for collections. And if not, then try to choose a fabric that repeats the motif of the pattern or has a harmonious color scheme.

And what besides wallpaper?

Today, the selection of wallpapers of all types, types and colors is huge. You can spend more than one day leafing through catalogs and shopping. However, not everyone chooses wallpaper as a finish. Which alternatives can be chosen:

• decorative painting - paint the walls, and then using stencils or other decorating techniques, apply a picture or pattern to the surface;
• decorative and textured plasters - the number of options for creating a decorative coating of walls using decorative plasters can exceed the range of wallpapers;

Decorative plaster
