Stereoscopic 3D wallpaper for walls: fashionable ideas in the interior
The word "stereo" in translation from Greek means spatial, three-dimensional. It is not for nothing that such wallpapers are called stereoscopic, since the images on 3D wallpapers look very impressive, like a revived landscape that captivates the imagination of the most demanding aesthetes and the most daring innovators in the interior.
Features and differences
You probably know about 3D photo wallpapers, but they are somewhat different from stereoscopic ones. The latter create the impression of immersion in space due to the physiological perception of the human brain, which perceives telescopic elements with the visual apparatus and creates the illusion of a wide space.
These wallpapers are more real and voluminous and look truly unimaginable than just 3D walls.
The popularity of such canvases is that they create the illusion of multidimensional space, making the room visually wider and deeper, completely immersing a person in the very landscape or abstraction that is depicted on the wallpaper.
Some people mistakenly call such wallpapers photo-stereotyped. This is a misnomer. Wallpapers are called stereoscopic.
What style are they suitable for?
At first, stereoscopic 3D wallpapers were used for walls in beauty salons, restaurants, luxury hotels and other public places. Later, their popularity began to grow, penetrating into apartments and private houses.
However, they still have not achieved great popularity and the general public, therefore they are not very often found in residential interiors.
In fact, such wallpapers are suitable for absolutely any room design, be it in Provence, Art Nouveau, Loft or other style. It doesn't matter which direction you choose, you just have to choose a suitable picture or abstraction, which can competently complement and emphasize the style of the room you have chosen.
For example, for decorating a room in the Provence style, delicate flowers, fields, meadows will look great; and for the New-York style, a panorama of a big city and streets saturated with neon light is suitable.
In a word, choose the picture that will most harmoniously fit into your room.
How to glue?
The process of gluing such wallpapers is no different from the usual ones that we are used to using. However, it is worth consulting with the manufacturer of the stereoscopic canvas when choosing an adhesive. The composition of the glue for 3D wallpaper is somewhat different from the usual one. It is worth paying special attention to this.
As part, it must have special components that make the glue thicker.
If you are not sure that you can glue such wallpapers on your own, it is better to hire professionals. They will definitely not spoil your image with a random shift, which can lead to irreparable errors in the 3D picture. Since such work is distinguished by special accuracy and high care, so as not to mow the elements of the canvas.
How much are?
The price of such wallpapers is, of course, more expensive than ordinary ones. But this is justified by the chic effect, and the material from which they are made, and their narrow popularity so far. Therefore, if you decide to glue stereoscopic wallpaper, you should know that their price varies from 250 to 600 rubles per square meter.
Wallpapers with a non-woven base are much better than those based on plain paper. They are better in gluing and handling.However, they are also more expensive.
A base made of plain paper is heavier in gluing, and it is likely that you will stumble upon a low-quality product that will upset you with its fragility. However, you can choose wallpaper based on plain paper.
Just be careful when choosing, read reviews of high-quality and reliable manufacturers.
Where can I buy?
These wallpapers are sold both in specialized stores and on the Internet. If you are a resident of a big city, then you can find stereoscopic wallpaper on the market, since the demand for them in big cities is much higher than in small ones.
If you want to buy wallpaper on the market, then be careful: do not run into a fake and low-quality paper base, because the consequences can be dire, and you will have to make a new purchase again.
Since such wallpapers are a novelty in the domestic market, in any case, be interested in reviews, collect information about the brand you want to choose. And then you will be satisfied with your purchase.

Pictures can be different: abstractions, geometric shapes, animals, flowers, landscape and much more. The choice is wide and varied. You can buy wallpaper with a ready-made image, or you can order a picture according to your individual template. Any of your ideas will turn into reality, since an automated computer program is capable of performing absolutely any image.
Views
There are several types of similar photowall-paper:
- Solitary. They represent a small picture, most often, occupying only a small part of the wall. Creates the effect of a 3D painting hung on the wall. The picture can be framed.
- Standard. As a rule, such wallpaper occupies the entire area of the wall. The image can be any: geometric shapes, abstraction, landscape, etc.

Care
Such wallpapers do not imply any special care. Such walls are unpretentious in cleaning, and it is quite possible to wipe them with a clean dry cloth, and if they are completely non-woven, then even a soap solution is acceptable.
You should remember a couple of recommendations if you are going to wash such walls:
- do not use a solution that contains abrasive elements;
- do not use sharp objects when cleaning such walls.
Also, make sure that the heating objects are 20 cm further from the walls, otherwise they can damage the surface.
Are 3D walls dangerous for vision?
There is an opinion that stereoscopic walls have a detrimental effect on the human visual apparatus. However, we hasten to debunk such an unjustified myth. Stereoscopic wallpapers are quite suitable for the interior and will not have adverse effects on your body.
One has only to pay attention to the too bright colors of such wallpapers. They can really get tired due to the bright saturated image. Such colorful wallpapers can be glued to the room where you are not often.
There are also a couple of recommendations from an ophthalmologist who recommends that some people still give up stereoscopic 3D wallpapers:
- if you have any visual disturbances, including strabismus, refrain from such walls;
- children under eight are also not recommended to be in such a room.
Therefore, it is still better to choose ordinary wallpaper for the nursery.
Reviews

Interior use
Who would have thought that someday modern computer technology would be able to do something like this: stereoscopic 3D-wallpaper with any three-dimensional image.
In different eras, for example, during the heyday of Rococo, many representatives of the nobility hired skilled craftsmen, architects to sculpt plaster figures or flowers on the walls, various decorations that speak of the luxury of Rococo. Needless to say, the price of such whims. Marble ledges, figurines, volumetric zigzags adorned the walls of the noble salons. And all this is done manually.
Now, if you decide to decorate a wall in a luxurious Baroque, Rococo style, you just have to go to the market and buy stereoscopic 3D-wallpaper with the image you like. It costs much less than the manual work of masters of bygone eras, and it will take much less time to glue it.
