Adding a splash of colour

Adding some colour to a room can transform the look and feel of a room, don’t be afraid to experiment with colours. It doesn’t have to be a whole room, it could simply be a panel or colour, or a feature wall.

Also, it doesn’t just have to be paint you use to add colour, wallpaper is also a good option, and if you use wallpaper as a feature wall, it will add colour and the desired effect, without braking the bank with a large expense of wallpapering an entire room.

Wallpaper to add some colour

I recently was asked to wallpaper for a client, when I spoke to them on my initial visit, the said that they had lived with plain walls for a long time and wanted to add some colour. They had already decided on the wallpaper, and had decided to have a fire breast, and one wall in one room, and one wall in the hallway, all with the same wallpaper.

By adding some feature walls added colour and also tied in the areas together well, the final result was a striking geometric wallpaper that added colour to the plain walls.
