Even just a glimpse of wallpaper can transform a space. Its graphic patterns, color, and textures have the amazing power to bring an interior’s style to the next level. Whether you use wallpaper to cover all the walls or just as an accent, it can bring a lot of character and style to the space. Over the years, wallpaper has gone through many different phases. I’d say now is one of the most exciting times for this element because designers are doing things with it that have never been done before. From metallic textures to incredible bold patterns, there is a world of opportunity for great design with wallpaper. Check out these 10 examples of powerful wallpaper.
