Being colour match paint Gurus, it’s no secret that we love paint here at DCO!

However, we also adore wallpaper! Wallpaper allows us to inject immediate style & character into a space with minimal effort. It creates texture, mood and personality in a way that you sometimes can’t achieve with paint… well, unless you’re particularly talented with a paintbrush! 

Wallpaper is also a fantastic tool to utilise when decorating on a budget - so many of us would love to have a lush living plant wall or modern heritage style wood panelled walls, however the reality is that we often don’t have the time or budget to include those in our homes. With designers constantly creating beautiful new wallpaper styles, it’s easier than ever to effortlessly remain on trend! Botanical decor, biophilic design, organic textures and wood panelled walls in particular are set to stay for the foreseeable future. These trends are inspired by nature’s textures and earthy colours which encourage health & wellbeing, so it’s no surprise that they’re still so popular!

 

The best wallpaper for a Bedroom

The bedroom is generally a place for calm and rest, and many of us love our decor to reflect this. Natural textures, neutral colours and soft blues, pinks or greens work especially well for creating a serene sleeping space! Wood panelling wallpaper, floral wallpaper and marble wallpaper are very popular choices for a relaxed bedroom style. If you love a touch of glam, a glistening metallic marble wallpaper or a wood panelling wallpaper with a satin shimmer finish would complete your style while still being on trend! Alternatively, the bedroom can be a space to really go for it and amp up the personality with maximalist design. If this is more your vibe, consider opting for botanical wallpaper bursting with nature, or bold tropical wallpaper styles featuring jungle plants and animals. Here are some of our top picks for trending bedroom wallpaper styles:

 

Modern neutral Scandi bedroom with a twist

Cosy Scandi bedrooms are still super popular and they really lend themselves to the wellness trend! Scandi home design blends perfectly with plants, natural wood, mineral textures and earthy colours such as deep greens, teal and rusted reds/oranges. Our Chevron Brush Marks Wallpaper is a gorgeous, quirky design featuring single paint strokes in a chevron pattern and comes in a choice of taupe or black & white. This stunning feature wallpaper would pair particularly well with our Earthy, Bold Boho and Neutral colour collections.

Distressed marble & mineral textures

A key 2022 wallpaper trend is natural textured wallpaper; bringing stone and marble textures into our homes to add depth & dimension. Our Nexus Wave Metallic Wallpaper is a unique textured wallpaper with a hint of industrial aesthetic - the subtle wave pattern and flecks of earthy colours make me think of those stony caves in cliff sides where you’d find fossils! This 3D wallpaper is coated with a slight shimmer, so when the light catches the surface it really comes to life. It comes in a choice of 4 eye catching colours to suit all styles: Grey, charcoal, neutral and teal. Check out our Off Whites colour collection for a selection of off white paint colours to complement this wallpaper beautifully.

If luxurious wallpapers are more your thing, you don’t need to feel left out! Marble wallpapers and mineral texture wallpapers with metallic finishes are a fantastic alternative way of bringing those trending organic textures into your home without stepping away from your aesthetic. Our Calacatta Marble Bead Metallic Wallpaper captures the beauty of natural marble, while its metallic highlights and glistening glass beads give it a luxurious twist. Our Off Whites and Neutral colour collections boast a range of complementary off white and neutral paint colours to pair with this glamorous textured wallpaper, completing your luxury aesthetic.

 

   

   

 

Unleash your inner maximalist with bold bedroom wallpaper

Our Yasuni Oriental Tropical Bird Wallpaper is a stunning combination of some of our current favourite (and massively trending!) styles: Tropical Wallpaper, Jungle Wallpaper, Animal Wallpaper and Oriental Wallpaper. Featuring exotic birds chirping among oriental greenery & florals, this joyful design is perfect if you’re looking for a bold wallpaper without the drama… But if you’d still like a touch of drama, there are some beautifully bold colour options including a deep plum purple and vibrant ochre yellow. Pair this elegant style with calming hues such as our Wellness & Neutral paint colour collections for a balanced space.
