5 WALLPAPER TRENDS FOR 2016
2016 trends talk of mix and match, print with pattern, and old meeting new | Take a look at five trends that are slated to dominate this year
From traditional and classic to bold and graphics, wallpaper is back with a bang. We can’t get enough of their room-transforming, style-defining powers. From natural to ethnic folklore, picturesque ambiances and metallic shades, here are key wallpaper trends that have pledged to make homes fabulously stylish.
Flower power
Indian homes are the right place to flaunt floral touches. Culturally and traditionally, flowers have been a part of every Indian’s life. Florally themed wallpapers, in cool and warm tones, could be a focal wall in the living hall or in the bedroom for a soothing effect.
Faux-rustic natural touches
Fancy a rustic touch to your home, but without making it too obvious? The use of rustic looking wallpaper will set the mood. Contemporary in style with bold and clean linear lines or emulating the qualities of real wood and brick, stone and concrete are fast catching up. Paired with chic yet rustic furniture or vintage ones, the look is sophisticated, clean and luxe!
Elegant and princely
You now can make your home look posh, not just by placing the right antique furnishings, but by using the right warm colored and neutral toned metallic shaded wallpaper. Modern-day apartments with closed spaces can create an illusion of more space, using metallic shades for a royal touch. Minimal furnishings with a statement lighting option does the trick! Stripes to patterns, shades of grey, rose gold, blues, and tinted greens to blacks and browns too; each paper has a unique story to tell!
A clean geometric palette
Funky and adventurous, yet very elegant and quirky at the same time, geometric patterns are going to be hot favorites for corporate couples setting up their new homes. Repeat patterns are great and bring about an ordered look, which is quite simple and clean. For a chic touch, use monochromatic tones and patterns in the hall. Colors should be bold for high impact if the same is being bestowed on the walls of the hall.
Emulating one’s lifestyle
Booklovers to pet lovers, artists to designers, and business professionals, whatever walk of life you come from, there are wallpapers with quirky textures to emulate your likes and preferences. Double-take wallpaper is now an haute trend for bedrooms with a focal wall – especially one that talks more about the home owner’s personal preferences.
