Types of images affect the visual change in the area and volume of rooms, therefore, for a toilet, which is usually very small and poorly lit, since it does not have windows, you must choose photo wallpaper with images that will visually make it bigger and brighter.

They are:

• Enlarged - these are images in which the drawing is very close located so that its smallest details are visible. Such photowall-paper will visually reduce the room.
• Deleted - these are images in which the main drawing is in the distance, for example: a hunting lodge in the distance of a mountain forest.Such images will visually enlarge the room.
• Single - these are images in which the main thing is a single object or individual, for example: a horse that grazes lonely in a meadow. Such a picture will help to enlarge the room.
• Group - These are images in which several basic figures, for example: several village houses. These murals will make the room smaller.
• Bottom view - these are images in which the picture is depicted as if above, and you look at it from below. Such images can make the room larger.
• View from above - These are images, as if taken from a bird's eye view or an airplane. Such drawings visually push the boundaries of the room area.

Advice! Do not forget that the visual increase in the area and volume of the room is also affected by the color of the image of the photo wallpaper.

Image types

Types of images are selected depending on what you want from the photo wallpaper, what function they will carry in your room. For example: they will be the decoration or background of the room.

Types of photo wallpaper images are:

• Subjects are small photowalls with which you can paste over only a small piece of the wall. They usually decorate the room, sometimes adding some decorating idea. For example: an image can be taken in a frame, as a picture or framed as a window with slats.
• Backgrounds are photowaves that are produced in long narrow stripes, like wallpaper. They do not have any particular pattern that needs to be clearly joined, often they show geometric shapes or abstraction.
• Panoramic - these photowalls will suit you if you want to paste them over the entire wall or even several. They are large in size and the image on them often emphasizes the geometry of the room, in breadth or height.
• Realistic - these are unusual three-dimensional images that look very real and voluminous. They can be of various sizes, glow in the dark, or even change the color and picture, controlled by the remote control.

The minus of the last two types of images is that in a small room they create a feeling of pressure and discomfort.
