Feature Walls in Interior Decorating

Feature walls used to be a trend in interior decoration to the point that it almost became overused. It, however, remains a classic that can never go out of fashion. To make feature walls really grand, add some touch of pattern and texture.

Using wallpaper is a great way to add a feature wall into a home. It provides a feature and a definitive focal point for a room.

With the emergence of wallpaper in various designs, colour, texture and some fabric, creating unique feature walls has become easy.

Used simply on one wall in a dining room for example it can provide a focal point to form discussion at the table and creates an intimate space, without enclosing the room. Wallpapers can be used on small feature walls in order to cut cost.

Wallpapers can be used to a solid wall where other walls are sheer walls of glazed windows. This helps to create an outstanding feature wall and breaks the monotony of all white walls.

If you are not daring enough to take up the challenge of bold designs, then subtle textures still work well, they change the form of the space and create interest.

It is important that you restrain the use of feature walls; avoid using every available wall of a room as a feature wall.

Feature walls are great in entrance ways, they serve as an exquisite expression of style that people can have first contact with. The entrance way can accommodate dramatic designs since it is a transitional space.

It is better to tone down the design in places like the bedroom where you spend a lot of time. More texture with subtle colour changes in pattern usually work better in places like bedrooms and sitting rooms.

To create a seamless interior pattern for your home, add a touch of feature walls here and there; this will add interesting surprises to your space as guests come admire your house.
