100 photos of ideas for combining wallpaper in the living room

Combining wallpaper in the living room is a relatively new trend among interior designers. At the same time, it is very controversial, since often a complete bad taste is obtained from a stylish trend. The combination requires not only a desire to make a fashionable renovation, but also good taste. And to avoid mistakes when combining, just read our recommendations!

Basic rules for combining

Deciding to glue the combined wallpaper for the hall, many forget about the choice of an accent wall, the area of ​​the room, and the features of a particular type of wallpaper.

Attempts to do it on a whim often result in an ugly design, which can be facilitated by the lack of experience in gluing.

There are only 4 rules and there are enough of them to successfully cope with the task:

1. You always need to start from the square. Although dark gray is in vogue now, it is contraindicated in small rooms! Gloomy shades only reduce the area of ​​the room, so only light wallpapers are suitable in small living rooms. In large halls, on the contrary - the tone should be dark. Otherwise, the room will seem uncomfortable.
2. Volumetric textures. Similar to the previous rule. Their three-dimensional effect will begin to crush immediately and the small room will appear microscopic. It will be uncomfortable to live in it. There is no such problem in large rooms.
3. Sun side. The combination of wallpaper in the living room requires lighting consideration. If the apartment is on the sunny side, then dark canvases are suitable opposite the window and vice versa.
4. Horizontal and vertical. If you are lucky with the height of the ceilings, then you should not take a vertical drawing. This will make the room seem even higher, which is not very good. Correct geometry, both physical and visual, is now in vogue. Horizontal stripes only make the room look longer.

Combination errors

The options for combining the wallpaper of the hall in the apartment are diverse, from which even designers make fatal mistakes. It is important to take into account that the room does not consist only of walls, it also contains equipment, furniture, and decorations. Therefore, in addition to the rules, you also need to consider:

1. Furniture arrangement.If the wallpaper is companion in the interior with texture, and the main ones are plain, it is forbidden to block the first with furniture. This accent error is very common when a decorative wall is for some reason covered with a wall with a slide or a headset.
2. Multicolor. Large rooms are convenient in that even 6 different colors are allowed and it will look normal. Small rooms should not have more than 3 shades. Otherwise, the volume of the room will simply be lost and it will be difficult to feel it.
3. Wallpaper with patterns in long rooms. If the living room is long and narrow, then textured canvases should be on small walls. Otherwise, it will be even narrower and even longer.
4. The direction of the pattern. If the room is low, the horizontal direction of the pattern (not necessarily stripes) will make it visually lower.

Popular combination methods

Now we know the rules of how to combine wallpapers in a hall of two types. This is enough to make a simple design. But you can go the simple way and adopt ready-made templates developed by professional designers.

Shades of the same color

This combination of wallpaper is also called monochrome. Perhaps it is the simplest one and should be chosen by those who want a calm but interesting design.

The combination of wallpaper in the interior is based on the fact that we take a primary color (say, blue) and an additional one (indigo, sapphire, ultramarine, cobalt). That's all! They will be combined in any case and you won't be able to make any mistake here. But, it is desirable that at least one wallpaper has a pattern. Otherwise, the room will be too crushing.

Before combining wallpaper, it's best to look for major stores. Often they sell canvases from the same collection that are specifically designed for such a combination. It will be easier and more interesting this way.

Contrast

A very effective but risky way. The contrasting combination of double wallpaper in the hall is a delicate matter and requires knowledge of at least a banal complementary combination technology. For example, blue and yellow wallpaper is a good option, red and green too.

But here it is important to play with shades and patterns to make the room comfortable.

In addition, the contrasting combination can be divided into 3 subgroups:

1. Simple. 2 unidirectional colors are combined. For example, pastel (any colors can be combined with each other) or black and white (extreme opposites).
2. Average. In principle, the wallpapers are not combined with each other, but they can be completed within a single interior.
3. Complex. A combination of incongruous shades. It is the most difficult to execute, but many designers know how to correctly expose contrasts.

Combination by gluing method

How to glue two types of wallpaper differently? There are 3 ideas on how to glue combined wallpaper in the hall:

1. Vertical and horizontal alternation. In the first case, the wallpaper replaces each other after a certain interval. In the case of horizontal striping, the wall is divided in half by a line. From above, canvases of one pattern and color are glued, and from below - another.
2. A game of contrast. Contrasting a small section of wallpaper is quite a good method. In this case, by the way, expensive wallpaper with high-quality silk-screen printing is often used.
3. Photo wallpaper. They are sold in large canvas, and on top of them it is better to frame them with a frame made of molding or border.

Game of textures

Paired textured wallpapers in one room are the most complex combinations. The problem is that all canvases are of different thickness. Let it be only half a millimeter, but the difference will be visible immediately. Therefore, you need to immediately find out their thickness.

Naturally, the colors should be related. Since we are experimenting with texture, it is not worth playing with shades.

It is also worth remembering the rule: paper wallpapers - with paper ones; textile - with textile. It is not worth combining them together, if only because they have different densities and thicknesses. It will be extremely difficult to dock them correctly.
