Paper wallpaper: last century?!

I was faced with a huge selection of wallpaper in the market of my city, I was confused what to choose and buy for my interior: paper wallpaper, non-woven wallpaper
or decorative panel?

Having looked through a huge number of samples and catalogs, one does not always understand the integrity and completeness of the interior.

In this case, you need competent and experienced designers; they can help you choose wall coverings for your home and tell you about all the wallpapers and even more.

Currently, in the rapidly developing age of new technologies for the decorative design of walls in the interior, we often look towards new materials that surprise us with all sorts of designs and 3-D effects.

And at the same time, most of us strive to find environmentally friendly materials that do not harm the health of our family, because the walls in the house occupy the largest area that we want to decorate.

People often come across the opinion that wallpaper made from paper looks very poor and cheap, because the memory of it dates back to the Soviet era. In order to dispel these myths, we offer a number of arguments in favor of such wallpaper.

Advantage 1: Environmental friendliness

The most environmentally friendly material for decorating walls in the house in our time, as always, remains paper – this is their main advantage. This wallpaper can be safely hung in children’s bedrooms, living rooms and offices. They are loved for their breathable properties and composition of natural materials.

Technologies have been created that make it possible to extend the operational life of wallpaper. For example, you can cover the wallpaper with a thin layer of acrylic that allows air to pass through. Such wallpaper can be wiped with a soft cloth, removing minor dirt, so it can even be used in the kitchen.

There are only restrictions in rooms with high humidity, where it is still recommended to use other wall coverings.

Modern paper wallpapers are designed to quickly transform your interior, adding comfort, charm and beauty to any room in your home.

This wallpaper is not inferior, and in some respects it may even be better than other modern wall finishing materials.

The design, colors and texture of paper wallpaper amazes with its diversity. The technological process of repeated wallpaper dyeing gives you the opportunity to create complex colors, which is impossible in the production of other coatings.

A special layer protects the surface from fading. This is another advantage of such wallpaper.

Advantage 2: Variety of colors

Using two-layer technology (duplex) in the production of wallpaper, designers had the opportunity to create three-dimensional textures: “cresha”, plaster, decorative stone and much more.

Paper wallpapers made using these technologies easily hide rough plaster and decorate your interior.

The use of such textured wallpaper hides the unevenness and imperfections of the walls from view. This is especially important in modern panel houses or on walls with alignment defects.

Advantage 3: Seams are not visible when gluing

In this material we do not advise how to glue wallpaper from paper – it is better to entrust this task to professionals.

If all conditions are met: the choice of glue, the correct application of glue to the sheets of wallpaper and, of course, the process itself, the result will not leave you indifferent.

The seam joints can only be seen upon close inspection, but overall they look like one piece in any light!

Advantage 4: Saves money

One of the most important advantages of wallpaper, which is often the decisive factor when choosing, is its low cost.

Agree that when you can make cosmetic repairs for the cost of 1 sq. m. m. walls for 200-300 rubles, then this is very budget-friendly.

True, this is if you glue them yourself.

If you hire professionals, then this amount needs to be approximately doubled to get the estimated cost of repairing an apartment or house.
