A feature wall has long been a firm favourite for those looking to make an impact with their decor. It can be a great way to add style and interest to a room without overpowering it, especially when you use the right wallpaper.

If you’re thinking about transforming a room with a feature wall, but getting lost with all the different styles, patterns, and colour trends, then we have a look at some tips to help you choose the right wallpaper.

Choose your location

Before you start shopping for wallpaper, you first need to decide on the location for the feature wall. It is intended to be a focal point for the room, so ensure it is in the right place and not obstructed from view by furniture. Once you’ve decided on just the right way to transform, then on to choosing your wallpaper!

Makeover a room with bold pops of colour

To inject a fun burst of colour without going overboard, a feature wall is ideal. You should consider shades that you wouldn’t normally have picked, such as bright pink, which can work wonderfully on a feature wall. It is best to keep the rest of the room neutral for a bold feature wall.

Decorate your hallway with abstract prints

Abstract and geometric print wallpapers can be ideal. Opt for a Moroccan inspired tile print to frame your fireplace and create an ultra-stylish focal point in your room, creating interest in the hallway.

Opt for bright botanicals for your kitchen or bathroom

Botanical prints are all the rage, to tie in with the rand for biophilia, so why not use rich green botanical leaf print wallpapers in the kitchen or bathroom for bringing the outside in.

Showcase industrial style in your dining room

The industrial vibe is still going strong, and natural walls, features and fittings are the perfect way to embrace the trend in your home. But if stripping walls back to the bare brick isn’t an option, you can create an amazing feature wall with faux effect wallpaper to help create the trendy industrial look. Consider a faux brick wallpaper for the kitchen or dining room.
