Wallpaper

Wallpaper is a great way to refresh wall decor and add personality to any room. It allows you to incorporate colors, patterns, and visual textures without having to change the furniture, transforming a plain surface into a focal point of the space.

This format requires proper surface preparation and adherence to the manufacturer's installation instructions. Before applying, it is important to ensure the wall is compatible with the adhesive and in suitable condition.

Wallpaper for living room

Wallpaper in the living room allows you to highlight a wall and connect it with the rest of the decor. You can use it behind the sofa, in a reading nook, or on a wall you want to make the focal point of the room.

Textile-inspired designs, geometric patterns, and finishes that replicate different surfaces can add visual depth and contrast with wooden furniture, upholstered sofas, and decorative accessories.

If you're looking for a balanced result, you can reserve the wallpaper for a single wall and keep the others in tones that match its design.

Wallpaper for bedroom

In the bedroom, decorative wallpaper can be used to highlight the headboard wall and create a composition around the bed.

Neutral-toned designs allow you to coordinate the wall covering with bedding, curtains, and accent furniture. You can also choose patterns with a stronger visual presence if you want the wall to be the focal point of the decor.

Before selecting the format, measure the width and height of the wall and take into account the position of the headboard, sockets and other existing elements.

To choose the design, consider the available lighting, the dimensions of the wall, and the colors of the elements that are already part of the space.

Wallpaper design influences the perception of a room. Finishes that visually reproduce fabrics or textured surfaces allow you to introduce nuances to the wall without adding extra textiles.

Within Sklum's selection you will find proposals with a textile effect , striped designs and finishes inspired by decorative surfaces, such as stucco.

These styles can be combined with different types of furniture. Textile-like motifs pair particularly well with upholstered sofas, rugs, and curtains, while designs with lines allow for more graphic compositions.

Wallpaper murals for walls

Wallpaper murals allow you to create a larger format decorative composition using several strips that are part of the same design.

Before installation, check the full dimensions, the order in which the strips should be placed, and the assembly instructions. Maintaining the continuity of the design is especially important to achieve the desired result.

Self-adhesive wallpaper panels

Self-adhesive wallpaper panels are another available option. Sklum offers packs of two 65 × 260 cm panels, allowing you to organize the wallcovering in sections.
