Wallpapers For Decorating A Room

Studio Q; Joyful Designs Studio

We'll be the first to admit that installing wallpaper is a huge undertaking. Not only does the process itself require the utmost attention, but it's also a big commitment. After all, it's always possible that you'll tire of your once-desired repeat a few years later. But if you want to breathe some life into your home in a way that a fresh coat of paint can't capture, wallpaper can be a design investment worth making. So we searched high and low for the best wallpapered rooms around to give you endless inspiration. Though there's a broad array of patterns—eye-catching florals and standard stripes, to name two—the rooms here prove that there's more than one way to apply wallpaper. While many designers have covered all four walls in the same print, others have opted for accent walls or patterns in unconventional places. (The ceiling and the bathroom are just two of our favorites.) And fear not, commitment-phobes: There are a number of peel-and-stick options out there for you, too. Get ready to step outside of your comfort zone with wallpaper that can give your space an attractive new look.

Storied Wallpaper

As Gail Davis proves, wallpaper can bring a personal touch to any project. "This room is dedicated to my mother, who is a breast cancer survivor," she explains. "I designed it with the intent of renewal for anyone going through treatment. The wallpaper spoke to our Senegalese roots and paired well with Benjamin Moore's First Light, as an homage to breast cancer awareness."
