Basic rules for using wallpaper in a flower
It is no secret that the interior with floral designsoften looks very lush and bright. Sometimes between this lushness and kitsch there is only 1 small step. But how not to cross it? The answer is simple: when creating a design with flowers, you need to keep in mind a few basic rules:
Figure 1. The use of wallpaper with a large floral print is possible only in rooms with a large area.
Moreover, regardless of the tone that they havefloral wallpaper, they harmoniously combine with any neutral color: white, gray, black, cream, sand, etc. In modern interiors, such combinations as flowers and checkered, flowers and stripes can be used. Return to contents</a>
Floral prints in interiors of English and classical style
Figure 2.Using the English style, you can create an interior in a room that will be both restrained and chic. Unlike many modern styles, where the use of multi-colored finishing materials suggests a rather ascetic interior decoration, in the English style, floral wallpaper successfully coexists with luxury and wealth. When creating a style direction in a room that corresponds to the lush Victorian era, it is necessary to decorate not only the walls with floral patterns, but also the windows and upholstered furniture. Small roses or any wild flowers are suitable as a pattern for finishing materials. All the walls of the room are pasted over with such wallpaper. At the same time, pillows on upholstered furniture, bedspreads and curtains should fully match the pattern in both tone and design. Using the English style, you can create an interior in a room that will be both restrained and chic (Fig. 2). Floral wallpaper can be successfully used when creating classic interiors. But if in English design the walls often resemble a greatly overgrown rose garden, then the classics do not accept any kind of excesses. It is not customary to cover all the walls in the room with floral patterns. Usually, floral wallpaper takes up only a small part of the space. Wall panels finished with materials with a floral print are often used. Brightness is unacceptable in classic interiors, so all patterns should be done in muted or pastel colors.

The use of wallpaper with a vegetable pattern in modern interiors
Often, floral wallpaper can serve as an accent element.
Figure 3.For the minimalist style, only one wall or part of it is pasted with floral patterns, and the flowers on the wallpaper can be used not only in black and white, but also in bright colors. This is the design solution that can decorate the interior in the minimalist style. Usually, only one wall or part of it is pasted with floral patterns for this. But the flowers on the wallpaper can be made not only in black and white, but also in bright colors. A good solution for creating a minimalist design can be the use of neutral two-color wallpaper, made in such a way that the tone of the floral pattern is only slightly different from the tone of the main background. These shades are so close to each other that they practically do not create contrasts. Such tones can be: black and gray, brown and beige, silver and white, various shades of green, etc. Such models can have a very exquisite pattern, but due to their color scheme, they almost do not stand out in the interior and make it soft and calm. The combination of bright floral prints and plain wallpaper makes an ascetic interior in the minimalist style spectacular and individual. The same should be said about any of the modern styles, where an important role is given to the creation of colorful and unusual accents (Fig. 3).
Figure 4.For women's bedrooms, the romantic floral style "Provence" is used. Scandinavian interiors, which can be found more and more often in the homes of our compatriots, also suggest the use of plant patterns. But here, floral wallpaper occupies only 2 walls, the other 2 should be white. Considering that wallpaper in a Scandinavian style interior should have a very large pattern, in combination with white they look extremely bright and impressive. In addition, in Scandinavian interiors, you can also use relief monochrome wallpaper. On such finishing material, plant patterns are applied with gilding or made using embossing. A special arrangement of lighting fixtures or special lighting allows the relief flowers on the wall decoration to look unusual and dignified. Return to contents</a>
