If the rooms in your apartment are not spacious, then carefully consider the choice of wallpaper.

After all, your goal is to achieve a visual expansion of space.

You don't want the room to start feeling even narrower and more cramped, do you?

Unfortunately, many people choose paper finishing material with the “wrong” pattern.

As a result, the room loses its comfort and coziness.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told us what kind of wallpaper should not be chosen for a small room.

What wallpaper is not suitable for a small room

Do not choose the following types of paper finishing materials for a narrow and cramped room:

  • wallpaper with a pattern that is too small;
  • wallpaper with a very large pattern.

In both cases, the unpleasant effect of visual narrowing of space will be achieved.

And so-called “visual noise” will appear: the interior will begin to seem overloaded.

An already not very comfortable room will turn into a place where it is impossible to relax.

What wallpaper should you choose for a small room?

You can choose wallpaper with medium-sized patterns.

But it is better to choose striped finishing material: it will definitely contribute to the visual expansion of the space.
