Wall mural ideas

Choosing wallpaper for a small room

Think about the view, the scale and the space you want to leave around the design.

A wall mural in a small children’s room

Compare an open scene with a pattern.

A Sail Away leaves pale sky and water around a small boat. An all-over pattern creates a different rhythm. Neither changes the room’s physical size; compare which composition feels right with your furniture and natural light.

Check what the crop keeps.

On a small or narrow wall, the crop may remove details at the sides. View the full artwork, enter your measurements and move the selection before deciding. Keep a favourite subject visible instead of relying on the styled room view.

Try the colours before committing.

Screens and lighting affect the way colour appears. Put a sample on the intended wall and compare it at different times of day. Check it beside the largest objects in the room, such as a bed, sofa or wardrobe.
