When choosing wallpaper for a small room, it is important to take into account some features, so as not to visually make the space even smaller. To do this, when decorating the walls, a basic palette of shades is recommended. Deep dark and plain white wallpapers can hide about a third of the total space (see How to choose the color of wallpaper for the bedroom).

It is more efficient to use the following colors:

Cream, light yellow, beige, sand, peach;
Green, blue, gray and their combinations.

The level of lighting also affects the choice of wallpaper color: for a dark room of a small size, warm colors are more suitable, if there is enough light, you can use cold tones.

Attention: To choose the most successful option, you must also pay attention to the color of the main large objects in the interior: furniture, carpets, curtains.

We deal with the views

Wallpaper in a small bedroom should be chosen by type. Let's look at what is on the sales market and select the right option:

Choose by type

Textured Wallpaper	Embossed wallpapers even with a fine-grained texture hide minor defects and irregularities, allow you to create a seamless wall design. Features of the relief allow you to create the necessary volume, visually increasing the room.
Brilliant wallpaper	Wallpaper with a pattern of sequins or silk screen printing (see Vinyl wallpapers and silk screen printing: material features) contribute to the visual expansion of space. Glitter creates a feeling of more light and makes the room visually wider. It is necessary to trust your personal preferences so that an excess of shine does not irritate the eyes.
Wallpaper with a pattern	In a small room, it is possible to decorate with wallpaper with a pattern, while it is necessary that the pattern is very small and the same on all walls. At the same time, for a room with a high ceiling, you can choose wallpaper with a horizontal pattern to visually expand the volume and distract attention from the large height of the room. If the walls of the room will be decorated with paintings or a colorful carpet, then it is better to give preference to plain wallpaper.

Flaws in the room

The premises may not be standard, especially for old buildings.

We look at the flaws of the room

Bad layout	For problem planning, it is important to use design techniques to visually make the space more uniform and correct, add light.
Too narrow room	For a room stretched in length, you can choose a wallpaper with a large pattern. At the same time, a wallpaper with a larger pattern is glued on a narrow wall, and a smaller one on a long wall. This technique will help to visually expand the room, creating the illusion of the correct shape.
Low ceiling room	In such a room, you need to glue a wallpaper of light colors with a vertical pattern or stripes. Use of a border (see. How is the wallpaper border sticker) is undesirable, since it will visually reduce the space by dividing it into two parts, if you nevertheless draw up a border, it should be narrow and inconspicuous, in a calm color scheme.
Small light room	In one-room apartments, they often resort to a designer redevelopment of the room, to increase functionality, creating an additional zone, for example, a bedroom. If you divide one large room into two smaller ones, one of them often remains without natural light and seems dull and dark. There are two tricks to solve this problem: The illusion of the window. This technique has been used recently: a frame is mounted on the wall that resembles a window in shape. It can be filled with glass stained-glass windows, mirrors, drawings or murals with "street" views. To emphasize the effect, you can decorate with a pseudo window tulle or built-in light bulbs with imitation of daylight. Such a composition looks like a real source of daytime color, visually expands the space. Glass partition. In order for the maximum amount of natural light to reach the darker part, the room is separated by glass panels, frosted or with a pattern. The influx of daylight will visually expand the space, add a sense of common space, while allowing, nevertheless, to maintain emphasis on the selected areas.
Furnishing a small space	The choice of light furniture helps to visually increase the space, while it is better to give preference to warm beige tones (see Selection of furniture for the color of wallpaper: professional advice) Do not clutter up the room with a lot of furniture, choosing a design with or without small legs to visually free up space. A good solution would be to allocate a bed area with wallpaper other than the main color or a brighter pattern.

Attention: The color of the wallpaper for a small bedroom is better to choose in bright colors. This will visually increase the room and make it more spacious.

Design Finds for Limited Space

Recently, such a non-standard design technique has become widespread: three walls are decorated with plain or wallpaper with a small discreet pattern, and contrasting wallpapers with a noticeable eye-catching pattern are selected for the remaining wall.

Attention: You should not decorate more than one wall in this style, as this will create the exact opposite effect.

The wall for brighter wallpapers needs to be selected depending on which area of the room you want to highlight: a bedroom, a working area or some unusual solutions in the interior, for example, exclusive shelves, compositions from flower pots.

There are several principles to choose wallpapers for a small bedroom that visually increase the space:

Poisonous flashy colors visually hide the space, it is better to replace them with more calm tones.
Light wallpapers and wallpapers with a small uniform pattern, unlike dark ones, visually expand the room.
A warm color palette creates the illusion of less space than it actually is, a cold one creates an increase effect.
The interior and fabric decor of the room should be in harmony with the color of the wallpaper to make the room look bigger: the bright contrast of furniture, curtains, carpets with wallpaper visually reduces the room.
It is important to pay great attention to the illumination of the room. A sufficient amount of light makes even a small room visually spacious, its lack, on the contrary, eats up a lot of space. If the room has a small window, or it doesn’t exist at all, it will be rational to use sources of additional lighting: LED fluorescent lights, built-in lamps, floor lamps, multidirectional lighting. Such techniques will allow light to penetrate all corners of the room and create a visual feeling of more space.
A heap of a large number of pieces of furniture and decor visually narrows the space. It is better to refrain from compositions from many small frames with photos or paintings.Minimalism in accessories is important - so the room will seem larger.
Oversized furniture should be discarded; a large bed or sofa further reduces the already cramped space even if it is alone in the room. The contrast of sizes unfavorably draws attention to the lack of space. It is important to select medium-sized compact furniture, positioning it along the walls.
The decor of the floor and ceiling is widely used to create the illusion of increasing space, painting them in bright colors. On the floor you can put a beige tile with a brilliant shimmer or sand linoleum, and decorate the ceiling with a light shade with glossy highlights. If you immediately make all the walls, floor and ceiling in the room light, it will seem even larger.
In the design of walls, mirrors are successfully used, placing them on the ceiling and walls. You can install one large mirror, or decorate the whole wall with mirror tiles. This allows you to create a feeling of huge space, because the amount of light in the room increases many times when reflected from a mirror surface.
Proper wall decoration with paintings helps to visually increase the space: it is better to choose one large, instead of several small ones.
The harmony of the color scheme of the room is very important, one unsuccessfully selected bright accessory distracts attention, visually dividing and reducing space. It is better to give preference to an even color scheme.
Furniture with glass, enamel and mirror decor help visually open the room, make it freer. Registration in a bathroom of a ceramic sink, or a glass table in the kitchen favorably expands the room. The play of light when reflected from mirror surfaces favorably increases the space and makes it more comfortable.
