A flower, one of the most beautiful creatures of nature, applied to the walls of a room, creates the atmosphere of a summer garden filled with marvelous aromas. A feature of floral wallpaper is the ability to influence the perception of space. The floral pattern on a light dim background creates a feeling of harmony, tranquility, and slowness. On a dark saturated canvas - brings the mysterious heat of southern nights. Which background you prefer depends on what kind of mood you want to give the interior.

The image of the flower itself is also important. Small flowers scatter attention and visually expand the boundaries of the room. Highlight furnishings and décor.

A large, bright image of a flower becomes an accent in the room. Wallpaper with a canvas filled with large flowers, in itself, is an active element of the decor; in this case, it is better to prefer monochromatic furniture. Such a specific accent requires a sufficient area, as it visually brings the plane of the wall closer.

Wallpaper with flowers is credited with a romantic focus. This finish is believed to work well in girls' rooms, family living rooms and bedrooms. Modern designers have developed a huge variety of stylized floral wallpaper with brutal features. So, a bright red flower in the whole wall on a black background looks defiant. This design will be appropriate in a men's bedroom. Or stylized white lilies against a metallic background, with their laconicism, will slightly dilute the severity of a high-tech office.

These are the features of wallpaper with flowers, in one or another version of the image, they can be safely used for the design of any room.

Wallpaper with flowers in the decoration of rooms can be used in several ways.

The traditional option is the continuous pasting of one type with a floral pattern. Small flowers are evenly distributed over the entire surface of the canvas. The floral motif serves as a background for the interior and brings a sense of tenderness.

The accent design option provides for the decoration of a bright panel with floral motifs on one of the walls, and the rest of the surfaces are finished in monochrome.

Here you need to almost abandon furniture, just a few stylish interior items. For example: a vintage Empire sideboard, a striped black and white armchair, and a hot pink gilded chair with armrests.

The opposite effect is produced by the same large images of flowers, but in a calm color scheme. Here, instead of challenging activity, there is an invitation to pleasant communication. A flower panel in a pleasant white and green range of a bouquet with tulips will greatly decorate the interior.

Floral wallpapers are often combined. For low rooms, horizontal zoning has become a good technique to visually raise the ceilings.This is pasting the lower part of the room with more saturated wallpaper, plain or with large flowers, and the upper half with light or with a small floral print wallpaper. With the same technique, only with a vertical combination of a floral pattern, you can zone a room. For example: all walls of the hall are decorated with beige plain wallpaper, and two adjacent walls and the corner between them are decorated with wallpaper with golden beige flowers.

Floral wallpaper blends beautifully with other patterns, for example, purple stylized floral canvases on one wall or part of the wall look harmonious with striped wallpaper in steel tones.

For classic-style furniture, it is better to choose wallpaper with small bouquets of solid finish. In more fast-paced modern compositions, a wall panel with a stylish floral print will be more appropriate.
