8 Wallpaper Trends We Want to Try Out ASAP
Make a difference with a little wallpaper – or a lot.
We say "trends," but is wallpaper ever really going out of style? We don't think so. Whether you want to update an entire room or create an accent wall, we're here to help. Check out our favorite wallpaper trends and ideas below before getting started.
1. Tropical
Bring nature into your home through a floral or tropical print. The wicker furniture, sea-glass lamp, turquoise garden stool, and tropical wallpaper combine to create a coastal-inspired, floral home office.
Geometric prints are just one of the wallpaper trends that will add a pop of personality to any room in your home. The fine lines of geometric prints make them a perfect trend to incorporate into a transitional home. Consider this dining room with its modern wallpaper and chandelier juxtaposed with the boho decor and dining chairs as your transitional design inspiration. Interested in a glam art deco print? It's a great geometric print for adding a sophisticated twist to any room.
Animal prints – especially hand-painted ones like this – are great for adding depth to a small room or for spicing up an accent wall. Although the pattern is bold, the minimal color palette keeps this wallpaper from overwhelming the living room.
We love the way this soft aqua and white print adds a cozy touch of Scandi-inspired design to this glammed-up living room. Rather than choosing wallpaper with gloss, glitter, or foil, opt for something matte. A matte textured paper will ground the rest of your decor and furniture in a way that gives every piece equal access to center stage – and none of the interior design competes for your eye's attention.
We love stripes as much as the next person, but there's something unexpected about chevron, herringbone, and abstract-patterned wallpaper. The fine lines and whimsical patterns make these wallpapers a go-to for mixing contemporary and traditional styles and serves as decor on its own. There's also something nice about this dark-hued wallpaper and how it pops behind the light-toned wood furniture.
Neutral-colored and neutral-patterned wallpaper trends can outlast styles that come and go, and they look incredibly polished. We love the way this ivory wallpaper looks so clean and sophisticated in a bedroom with a lot of colors and patterns. Choose an on-trend, neutral color like tan, cream, or gray, so you can pair different pieces with it over time without anything clashing.
Searching for super unique textured wallpaper trends? Consider textured grass cloth wallpaper. The weaving technique used to make grass cloth gives it a textured look that's perfect for creating both a sophisticated and relaxed setting. Grass cloth is also eco-friendly, giving your interior design major bonus points.
Botanical wallpaper is a perfect trend for a home that shows off nature-inspired materials – like this wood console table, woven basket, and rattan lamp. Choose a botanical pattern in a soft or muted color to offset dark-toned floors. Perfection.
Pro Tip:
Your feature wall doesn't need to be floor-to-ceiling wallpaper to make a statement. Consider a paneled wallpaper design to offset a gorgeous accent color. The easiest way to achieve this eye-catching look is by using self-adhesive wallpaper. It's easy to apply in the shape you desire and can easily be removed if you want to switch things up.
