Today’s wallpaper is far from what your grandmother used. The prints are modern and fun, while the quality of today’s wallpaper is ten times better than before. Factor in how easy it is to apply and remove, it’s no wonder why wallpaper is having a major moment in design. If you’re still not sold on using wallpaper in your space (whether it’s your home or office), here are a few reasons to change your mind:

1. WALLPAPER SHOWCASES YOUR PERSONAL STYLE

The great thing about wallpaper is that it provides you the chance to really let your personal style show in your space. There’s a wallpaper design, pattern and color in practically everything these days, so you can literally choose from anything. Wallpaper offers so many ways to add your own unique style to your home. When choosing the style of wallpaper, it’s best to do some research to see what sort of wallpaper options you really like. With a bit of research, you’ll find lots of options. Just make sure you take your time so that you find the right one that captures your vision for space.

2. WALLPAPER ISN’T OVERWHELMING

Another benefit of using wallpaper in your home renovation projects is that it doesn’t need to be overwhelming. If you don’t like colorful, bold prints, then you’ll be able to find a subtler option since there are so many types to choose from. Even the most subtle wallpaper can really make your space look beautiful and curated.

3. WALLPAPER CAN BE ART

The easiest ways to really make an impactful statement with wallpaper is to go with a feature wall. You just need to add wallpaper on one wall to really make it stand out as if it were an original painting. Plus feature walls with wallpaper allow you to have a bold look without the price of a luxury piece of art. It’ll also be a beautiful focal point in your space. When choosing a feature wall, stand back from the space and take note of the options. Get creative and don’t always go for the obvious choice!

4. WALLPAPER IS GREAT IN UNCONVENTIONAL SPACES

If you have a weird space room or an odd-shaped wall, wallpaper can really provide a unique take on the space. Many times, wallpaper can really transfer an unusual space. And it’s a cheap way to include some design inspiration to when you’re not too sure as to what to do with the space (but know you want it to stand out).

5. WALLPAPER IS TEMPORARY

Wallpaper today is not the same wallpaper from yesteryear, meaning that it’s easier to come off and apply. You can apply them and remove them in no time and your walls won’t look tattered or worn down after removal. Of course, it’s always best to have a professional install it so that the edges are clean and crisp, and you don’t have to worry about doing it on your own.
