Choosing a wallpaper in the style of Van Gogh paintings

Anyone who loves painting even a little knows that the paintings of artists not only make an impression, but also create a certain atmosphere, convey a mood. Some are frightened by the monotony of factory wallpaper patterns, and a solid color seems too simple a design option. In this case, you should pay attention to the wallpaper stylized as paintings. One of the best options is wallpaper in the style of Van Gogh paintings. At the moment, the only manufacturer that has released such an original material in the impressionism style is the Dutch company BN International.

Vincent Van Gogh - a genius unrecognized during his lifetime, who worked for the most part in Provence. Looking at the artist's canvases, you can feel the sunny atmosphere of this French corner. Having bought wallpaper with images of paintings, it will turn out to bring just such a mood to your own apartment. The artist worked in the style of impressionism, which is characterized by bright saturated colors. The credo of the Impressionists is not to mix colors, allowing you to admire pure, juicy shades.

The price for a roll of wallpaper from the Van Gogh collection of BN International is higher than the market average for vinyl wallpaper, but for a designer cover it is not expensive at all. The price per roll (53 cm by 10 m) is 2350 rubles, in this price category you can find wallpaper with patterns based on the artist's canvases, and at the price of 2600 rubles you can choose wallpaper with a reproduction of the whole picture. The quality of the design cover is European, because they are made of durable and modern material - vinyl on a non-woven basis. The coating does not fade, because it has a protective layer from ultraviolet rays, does not crack or deteriorate from moisture.

When decorating your room with wallpaper in the style of Van Gogh, you need to think like an artist, caring not only about the decor of the walls, but also about decorating the room with tables and shelves.

Several options for wall decoration:

• cover the entire perimeter with Van Gogh wallpaper;
• buy one roll and use it as an accent decorative element, combining it with cheap wallpaper;
• combine a designer roll with decorative plaster;
• combine Van Gogh wallpaper with tiles.

Combining can be more interesting from an artistic point of view, although cheaper compared to pasting the entire perimeter. If you choose plain wallpaper for the walls or paste over the entire area with white rolls for painting, and put the Van Gogh-style wallpaper on one wall, then the secret of a successful repair is to choose a color scheme that matches the tone. The combination of wallpaper with wall coverings that have a pattern is possible if the pattern is geometric, for example, stripes, checkers or rhombuses.

When the apartment has new floors, whitewashed ceilings and skirting boards, it's time to select wallpaper. It is not rational to start repairs with their purchase, because the color from which it is worth starting from is the color of the interior doors; skirting boards are matched to them.In order for the room to find harmony, it is better to make the floor contrasting, and choose the wallpaper depending on the colors of the finishing materials and the available furniture.

• Blue iris pattern Refreshes the room with white skirting boards, light shelving and beige laminate flooring.
• Floral drawings of Provencal fieldwith red and blue strokes, they are suitable as a background material for walls to any multi-colored furniture and wood tone laminate.

• Sakura will fit into the kitchen in combination with ceramic tiles in orange tones, mustard-colored wallpaper and brown linoleum.
• Material for walls with a picture of a masterpiece "Blooming almonds" goes well with wood or black polished furniture, the finish can be matched to black or brown floors. It can be combined with backgrounds such as black and white patterns or pale lemon motifs.
• Extravagant vinyl material with golden pattern - black and gold version of almond tree branch, the designer's fantasy on the theme of the artist's work. This wall covering is suitable for interiors in black tones and furniture with metal details.

Some coverings are not sold in the form of a roll, but as a panel.

• Placing a panel on the wall depicting artist's office, you can feel yourself in the workshop of the creator. It will match a brownish-red saturated floor and black baseboard.
• Image of Paris Is a subtle atmospheric pattern that plays with blue, pale gray and purple tones. Best of all, it will fit into a room created in a gray, beige and silver color palette, because any bright colors can overwhelm the pattern.
• Panel "Garden of Daubigny" - An unexpected decor option for pale green painted walls, plank floors and rustic interiors.
• Image on the wall "Haystacks" you can choose to decorate the room in yellow-red and brown tones.

Keep in mind that a room looks best when the wall with the painting is the backdrop for things, rather than being left bare like in a museum. This gives the room a cozy atmosphere.

• If the room is a study, then it is better to paste over the wall against which there will be accessories for creativity, for example, a sketchbook or a rack.
• When decorating a bedroom, you should select the lightest color in the picture and buy a bunch of tulle in this shade.
• In the kitchen, against the background of a wall decorated in the style of Van Gogh, tall stools and a bar counter or a kitchen set will look great.

Impressionist wall coverings may not be suitable for all styles. For example, wallpapers won't go well with minimalism and pop art. Please note that ultramodern things do not look good with this wallpaper, because impressionism reflects the spirit of the era. The furniture should also be stylized for the early 20th century.

Van Gogh wallpaper can be used for country and provence styles. Also, vintage elements may be present in the decoration of the room, for example, a chest of drawers with a shabby effect.

For these styles, the following furniture is suitable:

• beds with an iron chrome or black wrought iron headboard;
• painted bedside tables and dressers.

Design wallpapers with a bold pattern need clarity, so it is important that the floor maintains geometry and straight lines. This can be achieved by contrasting skirting boards and flooring. Luxurious design will complement parquet well, matte laminate for parquet, cork floor, and linoleum will look cheap.

For a classic interior, a panel in the spirit of impressionism is suitable for highlighting a separate area, for example, a bookshelf, table or tea drinking area.

Separate panels with sakura branches are suitable for the Japanese style.This design can be used for the kitchen to decorate the room in Feng Shui. On a yellow background of wallpaper, a table or shelf will look great, on which you can put dishes with fruits, ekibanu, a tea set.

Fusion style is a mixture of different decor elements in a room. You can decorate a room in impressionistic notes, for example, paste over one wall with Van Gogh wallpaper, and on the second, make a panel from impressionist reproductions pasted in a chaotic manner. Such a room is a great idea for a creative person's office. Such a workshop can be filled with bookshelves with a variety of objects and a table. Against the background of Van Gogh's paintings, these things will look inspiring and interesting.

The unusual black finish in the van gogh collection is an element of Art Nouveau decor; copper chrome lamps, a glass or wooden coffee table are suitable for this wall design.

Some share their impressions of the successful decoration of the bedroom and many managed to find options for combining with budget paper coverings, especially green ones. Of the minuses, the difficulty in joining the segments according to the drawing was noticed, so pasting a small section of the wall, for example, the head of the bed, seems to be a more advantageous move.

• An unusual combination of Van Gogh green wallpaper with pink primrose is a striking move from an artistic point of view, because green can be combined with any floral shades. Please note that the chair against the background of designer wallpaper looks interesting, but at the same time laconic.
• Designer vinyl flooring creates ambiance even with minimal furniture. The design in mustard tones is in harmony with the shade of sakura branches. You may find that delicate objects, such as a long-stemmed black lamp, look great against a rich background.
• An excellent option for creating a wall panel from wallpaper with a branch of an almond tree and combining it with blue color. Mustard pillows, matching the tone of the canvas, are bright accents.
