We combine wallpapers in the kitchen: the rules and the best options

The design and style of each room in an apartment or house can be different, which is explained by the characteristics of the room, as well as the taste of the owners. To the kitchen is not inferior to other rooms in creativity and originality, you can use various techniques. The simplest and most affordable option is to paste different wallpapers in one space. In order to correctly choose and arrange different patterns, colors and textures, it is important to know the basic rules and features of this business.

The kitchen belongs to such rooms where someone is constantly located, where the family gathers for food, where guests are invited to tea, so the appearance of this room should not only be neat, but also have a certain twist. Often, the quadrature is slightly inferior to the room or bedroom, so it is important to choose the most successful solution, which will not only decorate the interior, but also visually expand the boundaries of the room. The most correct and inexpensive option would be a combination of different wallpapers in a kitchen setting.

The combination of colors, textures and drawings in this case may be different, but in order for the room to look complete and stylish, it is important to be able to select wallpapers for repair.

If the apartment does not have a kitchen and dining room or hall as such, and these rooms are combined, then you can separate them from each other by gluing different wallpapers. With the right selection of a pair of wallpapers, you can achieve the following goals:

• liquidate the consequences in case of failure to carry out earlier repairs;
• zoning the kitchen to the working and dining areas;
• minimize the appearance of errors when planning a kitchen or building a house;
• combine two adjacent rooms into a single unit, without changing the layout and preserving the interior features of each of their rooms;
• create a fresh and creative interior in the kitchen;
• the ability to highlight some features of the room, columns, arches, and so on;
• to emphasize the interior as the owners want.

To make the duet of wallpaper in the kitchen look organic and beautiful, it is important to be able to correctly combine different options, for which there are basic rules.

• In one room you can only stick wallpapers of the same price category and one type, different in structure and cost options will not harmonize with each other. The community of the segment will allow you to find a good option that will complement the selected rolls and help achieve the desired result. The texture and color do not have to match, they can be selected at the discretion of the owner of the room. Without experience in carrying out such repairs, it is best to purchase companion wallpapers that initially have a pair and look best together.
• When gluing different wallpapers, it is worth measuring out strips of the same length so that you can make a neat edging, and the joints look even.
• When choosing a wallpaper, it is worth remembering which room they are bought for. Obviously the wrong drawing is unlikely to decorate the room, it will only force you to make repeated repairs as soon as possible.
• The color of the wallpaper should be selected so that it is in harmony with the furniture set or household appliances. You can purchase rolls in tone or a shade that fits organically into the overall space.

Sticking wallpaper in the kitchen is not an easy task, since you need to get around a lot of obstacles that are in a small space: a window, a door, household appliances, counters, gas and water pipes, furniture, if it is not cleaned. The design of the room will depend not only on the headset or the color of the walls, but on the harmony of all components. If the standard repair will look simple and boring, then it is worth sticking two types of wallpaper in the room. Companion wallpapers will give the same kitchen a completely new look, decorate it and breathe new life. To achieve the desired result, it is necessary to correctly combine shades, textures and drawings among themselves, otherwise the consequences can be reckless.

Wallpaper partners should be selected according to a certain principle, combined with each other, complement and smoothly transition into each other, or, conversely, contrast, creating an original atmosphere in the kitchen. To choose the right pair, it is important to know the basic ways to create combined surfaces, of which there are about twenty, but the most popular are the following:

• vertical zoning method;
• horizontal combination;
• accent wall highlighting;
• patchwork technique.

In a small kitchen there is a need to visually increase and expand the space, which is achieved by choosing furniture, decorating the room, but the main load is borne by the wallpaper. The design of this room should be such that it was pleasant to cook, eat and just relax in a quiet cozy atmosphere. If you choose the right wallpaper, then you can make the room more harmonious, correct blemishes and highlight the necessary areas. Using the vertical method of wallpapering, it is possible to adjust a narrow and long kitchen, expanding the boundaries of small walls and visually reducing long sections.

Vertical sticking almost always requires wallpaper with stripes that must be glued according to certain rules.

• Symmetric sticking. We use wallpapers with wide stripes, which are placed on both sides of the room, starting from its center. You can choose rolls with wide stripes of contrasting colors to divert attention to a specific part of the room, making the disproportionate area less noticeable.

• Asymmetric sticking. Wallpaper with wide contrasting stripes are located on one wall, and on all the others rolls with stripes of different widths, but in one calm color scheme, are glued.

• The combination of bright stripes with plain, which makes it possible to make the kitchen brighter and more original. You can glue the rolls, alternating one through one or one through two. The colors should be moderately contrasting, otherwise the room will turn out to be too colorful, which will create negative feelings from being in it.

• Use of non-standard colors. For fans of bold decisions, a combination of wallpapers in red and blue, raspberry and green, or something similar, would be a good option. If you want to create a clear accent, then it is better to stick to traditional color schemes: red with black, white with black, blue with gold.

For kitchens with high ceilings, there is no point in visually increasing them, so in this case it is worth using the horizontal way of wallpapering. This technique allows you to make a high and small room a uniform room in which it is pleasant to be. It is horizontal zoning that designers most often use to make the transformation of a room, completely transforming it. The simplest option for horizontal gluing is a combination of wallpaper with different colors and textures that overlap or complement each other.

To successfully combine wallpaper in the interior of the kitchen, it is best to be guided by the following basic principles:

• the upper part of the wallpaper should have geometric shapes, patterns, stripes, large flowers and similar elements, the lower part is made out with the same color wallpaper or with small size drawings;

• the lower part should have massive and voluminous details or drawings, and the top of the walls is decorated with plain wallpaper in a calm color scheme;

• the lower part of the wallpaper is decorated with stripes, and the upper - plain rolls or small-sized drawings.

Wallpaper in one color scheme looks very stylish, but with a different pattern, which, for beauty and visual effect, are demarcated using a border. Wallpapers in different textures look beautiful in the kitchen, where one part has convex and embossed shapes, and the second is as flat and smooth as possible. To correctly select the line of demarcation of the upper and lower borders, you can take the window sill as a guide.

Many designers try to make the interior of the kitchen unusual, for which the accent wall highlight technique is best suited. With the help of wallpaper with an interesting or original pattern, some part of the room is highlighted, and the rest is glued with neutral, pastel wallpaper that organically fits into the interior. For the room to be balanced, the furniture and the main part of the walls should be neutral in color, and the accent wall is selected bright and original, which allows you to play in contrast, but at the same time maintain the overall concept.

Such a solution looks especially beautiful in rooms with unconventional architecture, which, when highlighted, looks completely different and serves as a decoration of the kitchen, its highlight. There can be many techniques, it is important to correctly implement them to achieve your goal.

The style of any room depends on the taste and wishes of the owners, so the repair technician can be many. Photo wall murals are very popular for many years, which make it possible to radically transform the kitchen, creating a cozy atmosphere in a certain area. Often this method decorates the area with the dining table, highlighting it from the common room. In the kitchen you can glue murals with nature, still lifes, an imitation of a cafe or restaurant, a piece of street, field, river or sea.

Another unusual option for finishing the kitchen is wallpapering on existing wallpapers. The whole point is that in certain areas, the old finish remains, which is framed and stands out, which resembles a picture. A room with such decor looks original, fresh and colorful. The main advantage is the ease of repair, since there is no need to tear off the old wallpaper, level the wall, primer it, all this has already been done before. Rolls do not have to be selected in width, color or texture, if they are of different types, it will be even more interesting and realistic.

If there is a need to change something in the kitchen or there is a desire to transform this room beyond recognition, then using different wallpapers in this case will be the best option.

The combination of different colors in the conditions of one room allows you to transform the room, correctly place accents in it, highlighting only what you need. An important nuance is the ability to pick up the tone of one wallpaper in a pair to another. If the walls are pasted over with bright wallpaper, then the wallpaper-partners should have similar or the same color spots.

No less beautiful look wallpaper with bright and voluminous patterns that are combined with plain and soft options. The brighter the highlighted area, the calmer the rest of the room should be.

The original technique will be a combination of different patterns, textures and shades. If on one wall there are voluminous flowers, geometric shapes, abstractions, then companion wallpapers should have a clear and simple pattern, for example, brickwork or even stripes.The color scheme should not vary greatly, the closer the shades are, the more organic the design of the entire room will be.

Using the vertical method of wallpapering, you can visually raise the ceiling level, visually increasing the room. It is important to use rolls with vertical stripes only in a certain area, and in the rest of the kitchen to stick light wallpapers with some kind of pattern, which in color will complement the rest of the room.

The vertical way of wallpapering with separation with the help of the original border or edging looks very nice. The presence of inserts from different wallpapers on the remaining walls allows you to create a unique atmosphere, which will be very pleasant to be in. The inserts can be made from old wallpaper or using photo wallpaper.
