How to choose wallpapers:

Choose a style. Depending on the origin of the wallpaper, its style is also very different. European wallpaper products are known for their gorgeous and elegant, due to the needs of the product originating from the European architectural style, the decorative role of the wallpaper is very exaggerated, the wallpaper exaggerates the extraordinary relief effect, and the sales price is high. Wallpaper products from Southeast Asian countries and Hong Kong may be closer to the aesthetics of Chinese and have soft colors.

Select the brand. The choice of wallpaper depends on the brand. The quality of brand-name wallpaper is first-class, the after-sales service is first-class, and of course, the best is also first-class. At present, according to a certain market share of wallpaper products are Italy's Tiandi wallpaper, Jinwei wallpaper, Sambati wallpaper, Japan's Longran wallpaper, Europe's Ouya, Jinchao wallpaper, Hong Kong's Meigao wallpaper, as well as the rising star of the domestic Aishe wallpaper, Prussia King wallpaper, all have good quality and meticulous after-sales service, ** medium to high.

In a sunny room, the hue of the wallpaper can be medium to cold; In a shaded room, warm colors are preferable to the wallpaper. This neutralizes the effect of light on the room.

The wallpaper of the living room can choose the entrance wallpaper with a relief effect, or the wallpaper with a monochrome dark pattern to enhance the visual beauty of the living room. The study can choose wallpaper decorated with calligraphy to increase the taste of the study in the decoration.

A few points to pay attention to when choosing a wallpaper.

Ask for a sample and give it a try.

In the specialty stores that sell wallpaper, there are stacks of sample books for customers to browse and choose. Except for the samples that the merchants put on the entire wall, the other samples are only the size of an 8-page book, and it is difficult to see the overall effect from them. The colors and patterns may be beautiful in the catalogue, but when you stick them on the walls of the whole room, you will find that the patterns and colors are too strong, which makes the room feel oppressive.

It is also likely to be conservative. Even if you put a wallpaper sample on the wall, it will be difficult to see if it will be good to stick it on your own wall depending on the size of the space and the atmosphere of the room.

Experienced people suggest: before making a decision, be sure to take a piece of wallpaper on the wall of your home to try it, the larger the sample area of the test, the better, so that it is easy to see the effect after pasting. Therefore, when purchasing, it is best to ask the merchant for a sample with a larger area.

Choose a wallpaper that matches the overall style of the room.

In the wallpaper exhibition hall, the bright and dazzling patterns and flowers are the most eye-catching, and some flowers have realistic patterns and strong colors. Experts say that this kind of wallpaper can reduce the sense of restraint in the room, and is suitable for rooms with a more bland layout. Since most of this pattern is exaggerated, it should generally be paired with European classical furniture.

People who like modern and simple furniture are better off choosing this kind of wallpaper. When deciding on the style of the wallpaper, the design of floor materials, furniture, accessories, fabrics and lighting should be synchronized, and it is especially important to design the whole uniformly.
