Qualitative variety of photo wallpaper
Wall murals have been known for over forty years and once were already in fashion, but because of the poor quality of the paintings and the small selection of images, they quickly disappeared. Modern photoworks are very high quality and diverse in composition.
Let us consider in more detail types of photo wallpaper on the quality of the paintings.They are two-layer, the first layer is the base on which the top layer is applied, sometimes already with the image, sometimes the image is applied on top of it, it also acts as a protective layer.
The main layer is:
- Paper. Such murals are considered the most common, especially among young people. They are chosen because of the large assortment of diverse images and low prices. Their price is low due to the low wear resistance of the paintings and the rather quick fading of the drawings. Mature people will be surprised, why buy this kind of photo wallpaper, because after a while you will have to part with them? For young people, this is what is needed, because their tastes and hobbies also change quite often, and spending money on expensive photo wallpapers every time is very unprofitable.
- Vinyl. Such murals are considered the strongest and relate to washing finishing materials, as they are moisture resistant. Their wear resistance and moisture resistance depends on the starting material. Such canvases are divided into several subspecies, these are: thick vinyl, foamed vinyl, kitchen vinyl, thin vinyl and others. The disadvantage of this type of paintings is their air permeability, so they are used in non-residential rooms.
- Non-woven (see Non-woven photo wallpaper: how to choose and stick) It is an environmentally friendly material with many positive qualities. It is breathable, fireproof, moisture resistant, durable and not afraid of mechanical damage. The disadvantage of such canvases is that they have a small assortment of images and they have a rather high cost. Although for people already with established tastes and hobbies, this is a good option, since non-woven fabrics can last more than ten years.
- Tissue. This is the most expensive type of photo canvas, and it looks rich and expensive. The composition of such paintings includes fabric fiber, which makes the fabric look like real fabric. The downside of these types of photo wallpaper is their feature of collecting dust and dirt.
The top layer is:
- Laminated. The surface of the photo wallpaper looks smooth and gives a glossy shine. The laminated layer is a special film that protects the surface of photo wallpaper and makes it possible to wash it even with cleaning agents.
- Matt This is a flat surface of photo wallpaper, most often consisting of a paper layer, which is why it does not have good wear resistance and moisture resistance. The image on such a surface has muted, dull colors and shades.
- Textural. Most often, this is the rough surface of the canvas with an imitation of a variety of materials, both natural and created by people. Such a surface looks very unusual and original.
Another, more modern type of photo wallpaper is 3D photo wallpaper, but they are assigned to a separate category of both paintings and images. All types of photowall-paper are very easy to mount, this does not require special instructions and everyone can stick them with their own hands, with the exception of very large canvases, where you need the hands of a friend and modern 3D photowall-paper, which are fastened by professionals.
New 3D photo wallpaper
3D mural belong to a separate category, since this is not always the photowall, which we considered earlier. 3D murals are divided into several types, which differ in their size and images.
3D murals are:
- Roll or background. They are produced in rolls, like regular wallpapers, and often replace them, creating the background of the whole room and its interior. They usually depict drawings that do not require a clear joining of the edges, for example: geometric shapes, abstraction, tree trunks or bookshelves.
- Single or fragmented. These are small-sized canvases that are used as room decoration.They are glued to a part of the wall or in the form of a picture, especially if they are framed with a frame from the picture or simply with wooden planks. Images on them can be varied, which allows you to choose them to any style of interior.
- Panoramic. This is an incredible view of 3D photowall-paper, as it can reach several tens of meters and you can easily paste several walls at once. Because of this, the image looks so realistic that you can find yourself in the middle of the forest, pasting his image in your room.
- Fluorescent or glowing in the dark. Very intriguing view of 3D photo wallpaper, due to the image glowing in the dark with soft light. They will well replace night illumination. For a more spectacular glow, in addition to this type of photo wallpaper, it is advised to purchase special black lamps that are needed only for such photo wallpaper.
- LED light. This is the latest new 3D photo wallpaper. They can’t even be called photowall-paper, since they are a whole electronic system, consisting of many tiny LEDs, which with the help of the remote control, can me shades, image colors and the picture itself. Such photo wallpaper is set only by experts.
