For most people, the living room is one of the most important places in the home, and if you live with your family, it is a common area where everybody gathers at the end of the day to talk, watch TV or do homework. On the other hand, If you live by yourself, it’s a sort of oasis where you can relax after a busy day. More often than not the living room is also the guest area, where you receive friends and have little meetings with outside people.

Being usually one of the first places you see when you get in the house, the living room offers a direction of your home style. So it is essential that the décor has personality and we want to help you with that and show you 7 ways to enhance your living room with textured wallpaper and give it the visual punch it deserves.


1) Make a feature wall

A feature wall provides an excellent opportunity for you to explore and be bold with new colors and textures. This is a highlight of your décor, and it can be very helpful on setting the vibe for the rest of your home and a resource you can use to define space in open concept homes and with the right wallpaper, it will be the first spot the eyes are drawn too.

Just be careful not to overload – when you create a wall like this in an already overcrowded room, it may give a sense of chaos. So just go for the classic “less is more” way of thinking.

Dividing your wall into two and giving it a mix of textures is also a great way to make an impact on your décor. You can go as smooth as you like with pastel colored wallpapers or be dramatic and dare with a blend of vibrant colors.  Another idea is to cover only half of the wall.
